Read the foregoing posts to understand how old video footage of concerts from Belgium, France, Germany, etc contribute to the younger generation's awareness of Gallagher and their appreciation of his musicianship.
YouTube has a channel by Wing of Pegasus analysing his techniques - try this one:

British guitarist and Donal Logue analyse Rory Gallagher live in 1979!

Tonight I'm teaming up with Donal Logue to take a look back at Rory Gallagher live in 1979! Original video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=go9J9REtfdAFor m...

Now what was that you were saying - why am I so invested in this topic ?

How many of the 34k views are yours? :D Assuming people only view it once that's still not even 10% of the subscribers to that channel who have watched it! That channel has plenty of 1M+ view videos. 34k views is small beans.
 
Why do Leos always want preeminence ? :)

Only 34 k views on a specialist musician YT channel ? That's good for that category.
 
@trajan yes i made the exact same point myself, it was the advent of YouTube and the fact that so much footage of gallagher was done in high quality that has contributed to his growing legacy.
I saw a young English band playing some of his stuff in monaghan a month ago, and the quality and energy was outstanding obviously they learned it from his YouTube videos . Also the fact that he was never overly commercial is an extra thrill to these younger fans that they are discovering this great talent that nobody had heard of

It's only 2% of the viewing figures of other videos on that same channel. The point I'm making is that Rory is a small niche within the music industry. Putting forward a video with low viewing figures only goes to to prove that points, not counter it as intended.
