G-Men Bootleg Series Vol.1 was Rory Gallagher's last official release before his death in 1995.
This album was Gallagher's attempt to bootleg the bootleggers; released in 1992 it was a no-frills exercise with little production work. The three discs were recorded throughout the 1970s. The first two CDs are called "Calling Hard", featuring an entire London gig from 1976/1977, as well as about six tracks live in 1978. The third CD is called "Bullfrog Interlude", featuring a gig for London radio to promote the then forthcoming album, Blueprint from February 1973. The live recording of "The Cuckoo" from this gig was used on Blue Day for the Blues, and also this gig's version of "What in the World" was used for the BBC Sessions live CD. The whole package was sold for the price of one CD.
All tracks written by Rory Gallagher except where noted.
