Fresh Evidence is Rory Gallagher's last recorded album. Gerry McAvoy, Gallagher's bass player, has referred to the guitar solo on the third track "Middle Name" as his personal favourite of all Gallagher's recorded solos. This song is said to have being composed by Gallagher in reference to John Lee Hooker. This album also saw the reunion of Rory and piano player Lou Martin.
