Cork Rock: From Rory Gallagher to the Sultans of Ping 

by Mark McAvoy

McAvoy explores the history of Cork rock music from the early days of legendary guitarist Rory Gallagher in the 1960s, through the Finbarr Donnelly led punk era of the 1980s, to local indie legends The Frank And Walters and the irrepressible Sultans of Ping. Cork Rock: From Rory Gallagher To The Sultans of Ping explores the records, venues, personalities and culture that sprang up around rock music on Leeside. Delving deep into the stories behind seminal Cork acts such as Taste, Five Go Down To The Sea? and Microdisney, Cork Rock traces the careers of many of the city's most popular and talented musicians. Includes exclusive photographs and interviews with leading performers, managers, DJs, and promoters.
*NOTE: About 1/3 of the book involves Rory or has a  Rory connection
