RORY STYLE
As many of you may already know, I had written a song as a tribute to one of 
 my all-time favorite guitarists, the great Irish bluesman, Rory Gallagher...
The song is called 'Rory Style', and it is featured on our "Step Aside" CD.  Rory Gallagher has been a huge influence on me, musically, ever since my brother, Bob, first turned me on to his music, back when I was 12 years old...
.
I got in touch with John Ganjamie, through his amazing Rory Gallagher web site, "RoryON!!".(Be sure to check out this web site!).  Well, John was kind enough to forward a copy of our "Step Aside" CD to Rory's brother, Dónal, who, after listening to it, wrote me the following letter:    ( - Bill Capuano )

Hi Guys,
Thank you for forwarding your album on to me via John Ganjamie (RoryOn).  We had a postal strike here in London, thus the slow response back to you.
.
The album is great, and matures with every listen.  I love the variety of material, and instrumentation, with the songs having lots of light and shade.   Needless to say, I am deeply touched by "Rory Style".  It is a fantastic tribute to my brother, and the guitar work is commendable, as it encompasses so much of the subtle touches reminiscent of Rory's early albums.
.
This coming Monday, we shall be releasing a full length version of the "Meeting With the G-Man", live 'bootleg', from '93, so when I get stock in, I will send on some copies.   Also, there will be a three-day Rory tribute convention here in London, and I will feature your album at that event, so the fans there are aware of your great record.
.
Many thanks again for doing this tribute to Rory.  I know he would be knocked-out by its sentiment.  Hope our paths cross along the way.
.
Kind regards,
Dónal
