Rory Gallagher album recommendations

SeleniumFalcon

I know I'm a day late and a dollar short, but I don't have any Rory Gallagher records. I heard a couple of cuts from the Irish Tour, 1974 album on the radio and I liked it very much. So, what are the core albums to get?
Has anybody heard the reissues you can find on Music Direct's site?
Thanks!

Someone posted a clip from The 1970 Isle of Wight Festival on another forum a few days ago of RG in the band Taste. I wasn't familiar with him/them and I quite enjoyed it.

It's tough if not impossible to go wrong with any of his albums. If I had to pick just one album in addition to the 74 tour album it would be this onehttps://www.discogs.com/release/1267138-Rory-Gallagher-The-Story-So-Far/image/SW1hZ2U6MTkwMDM4OA==

The Beat Club Sessions from Germany in '71' is a DVD that can be purchased. This has great audio and video for 1971. There is a CD too of the same session but it don't come with the DVD. The clip below if from the DVD.
