FRESH EVIDENCE is Rory Gallagher's eleventh and last studio album, his fourteenth album overall and was released in May 1, 1990. The songs on this album show his love for blues artists such as Robert Johnson, Son House and for other genres as well. The album is influenced by his deteriorating health, and explores themes of ill health, mortality, and fighting back against overwhelming odds. There was no way that Rory Gallagher could have known that FRESH EVIDENCE would be his last recording, but in retrospect, it is a good summary of all that is fine about his work. It seems that Gallagher wanted to prove his mastery of every style of blues & amazingly, he succeeds. Nevertheless, FRESH EVIDENCE showed that even after over 20 years of reinterpreting various strains of blues, there was plenty of spirit & creativity left in the great irish rocker.
PERSONNEL: Rory Gallagher – vocals, electric and acoustic guitars, dulcimer, mandolin and electric sitar; Gerry McAvoy – bass guitar; Brendan O'Neill – drums; John Cooke – keyboards; Lou Martin – piano; Mark Feltham – harmonica; Geraint Watkins – accordion; John Earle – tenor saxophone, baritone saxophone; Ray Beavis – tenor saxophone; Dick Hanson – trumpet.
Rory Gallagher was considered by many to be the greatest guitarist of his generation. His undoubtable drive and success was married with an unpretentious and generous nature that won him many friends. Bono summed this up perfectly when he said, “Rory was one of the top ten guitar players of all time, but more importantly, one of the top ten good guys”. The band came together at the beginning of 1990 and started work on the album that would become FRESH EVIDENCE. The first few tracks are competent but less than perfect; "'Kid' Gloves" is yet another weak song that is based on his well-known love of crime fiction, and "The King Of Zydeco" shows that Gallagher may have liked zydeco music a lot, but he doesn't sound natural playing it. Things pick up on "Middle Name," which sounds a lot like the Doors' "The Wasp" but has some sharp soloing, and things really get rolling on "Ghost Blues." From this point on, it seems that Gallagher wanted to prove his mastery of every style of blues, and amazingly, he succeeds. The Delta blues of "Heaven's Gate" shows his mastery of the form, and the jazzy, swinging Chicago blues instrumental "The Loop" is a classic track. The very best was saved for last: the thundering "Slumming Angel." Everything is absolutely together here, the distinctive voice belting out a great simple lyric over a hammering rhythm section and a heaping helping of guitar, guitar, guitar. For all that, it starts slow and has a few tracks that sound like filler, albeit tasty filler. Changes and developments that Rory Gallagher unfortunately did not get to experience. Who knows what musical beauty the man could have achieved, FRESH EVIDENCE is proof of new fire.
