Joe has been around forever and a real musicians musician. Played with a lot of people and respected by many. Know the LFR Family likes Jimmy Page, Joe Walsh was the guy who gave Page his first and still #1 Gibson Les Paul. Joe had the guitar and told Jimmy this was the Guitar perfect for his sound. Page's go to guitar ever since. BTW if ya haven't figured it out, JW is a madman!! Player, writer, creator and genious. Before Joe started playing with the Eagles, they had much more a Country vibe. Once Joe got on board, they took off becoming one of the biggest bands of the 70's. Being played on Rock, Top40, Pop and Country raido stations around the world.
Back when he was a member of The Eagles, a band mate was asked to describe Joe and his response was something like . . . . . he's a crazy bunch of guys!
Fav Joe Walsh quote - (something like): "people used to say I was an alcoholic cause I drank all the time, but I actually just drank once for 20 years". Lol
My favorite Joe Walsh quote is from when he was going out on tour after a long break and he was asked if he practices the songs before the tour begins and his reply was "yes, just because you wrote a song that doesn't mean you can play it."
He had a band in the late 60’s early 70’s called The James Gang, and they did a song called “Funk 49”. One of my favorite all time songs. Had another one called “Walk Away” that was really good too.
Never asked for a request but THIS is my one: Joe Walsh "Rocky Mountain Way"! It's a jam & he uses the talk box. Official video or rock out with him singing it at Daryls House.
Joe is still in the Eagles...since 1975! He just has side gigs and does solo work. The Eagles are another great classic rock rabbit hole to dive into. Their harmonies are AMAZING
Joe tells a story of his time in the band, The James Gang. They left Cleveland in a passenger van with five members headed to open a show in Detroit. When they made it to Detroit about four hours later, the band had 3 members.
Joe Walsh is National freaking Treasure & we need to protect him like Betty White. I'm a HUGE Walsh fan! Trust me - The Eagles benefitted from having Joe - not the other way around. He a master ghitartist. You know the opening riff from "Life In The Fast Lane"? That riff was his warm up. Movement between his left to right hand & Glenn Fry was like damn that's a song! 🤣
The Eagles have just a sh*t ton of good music, but "Life in the Fast Lane" is really my favorite. I'm not sure any other main-stream tune describes the mid to late 70's cocaine craze and its affect on people in quite such an upbeat way. I love that song, both musically and lyrically.
as a guitar player and a Joe Walsh fan I agree that he's deserve the moniker Master Guitarist, especially when I saw video on YT explaining how to set up guitar and intonation. Dude doesn't just know how to play it.
Gary of Gary and the Grinders, from Ft Smith, AR. is the guy playing here. He was his ghost player. He had a huge bar in FSA. He used to play where I bartended and OMG could that cat play! He would play like Jimmy Hendrix, if you shut your eyes you would swear it was Jimmy! Behind his back, written a Black and Decker drill..... you name it!!! Everything that band did was just like whoever they played. I loved them!
Joe Walsh, incredible guitarist, one of the best ever, and he is still rocking. James Gang, The Eagles. Listen to him play on Hotel California and many many others. You can pick out his sound anywhere. He has been sober for many years now...great great guy!!
This song is about how Joe, never took himself too seriously in the whirlwind of fame. The whole peice is like a drunken jam session showcasing Joe's sick guitar skills, the keyboardist playing with early Moog synthesizers and fooling around!
My Dad once said the line, "I go to parties sometimes until 4, it's hard to leave when u can't find the door"...fits the story of why he and my Mom eventually broke up, lol
I saw in concert in OKC in the early 90s. On the song Rocky Mountain Way he started singing late. The next day in the newspaper they said how cool it was that he let the fans start the song. I think he was just so stoned he missed his pick up. One of th best concerts I ever went to.
Heard this at the Eagles, Heart and Little River Band concert at the Yale bowl 6-14-1980... excellent song! A favorite of mine. Fantastic concert. Joe Walsh - Eagles. Some people at the concert had a huge banner that said "Joe Walsh for President". 💓💖😎🙃😁
Joe Walsh is literally rock and royalty. He was a member of the Eagles. And also the James Gang. Had a very nice solo career as well. You should listen to Rocky Mountain Way.
I got to see him perform this live in the mid 80's. Awesome experience. Good that you found the full album version and not one of the two cut short ones radio stations like.
Yep that was Joe Walsh on the left!!!!! If you haven't already do Joe Walsh Ordinary Average Guy!!!! That's some good music!!! Love your reactions ❤️!! Keep shining ✌️!!!!!!!!!!
Van,Joe Walsh is regarded as one of the greatest guitarist still going with the Eagles for over 25 years.With his early band The James Gang they where very funky rock had a few hits.The story goes that Joe Walsh alone with his playing and singing brought the Eagles out of the country-pop and into Rock n Roll with the big boys.ps he's Ringo's bro-in law.
Okay!! I found your music reaction archive This song here,is SO good.thanks there bro for the awesome reactions keeping me company with some kick back rocknroll, ✌️
Man, I just joined your channel about a week ago. I am digging your content. I just joined your son's channel today and he's doing great stuff too. Seeing people from a different culture really appreciating the music I grew up with is so beautiful. Keep on keeping on, bro.
Been listening to Joe for over 50 years. Bought this album on vinyl when it first came out. This track/album is post-James Gang and pre-Eagles. He plyed guitar and keyboards with the James Gang, but stayed pretty uch just guitar after, Probably his best known track, but you chould give a listen to "Funk 49" with the Gang -- or the version he did with Daryl Hall on Daryl's House.
Anyone else remember the original line was- "I have a limo right in the trunk, I lock doors in case I get drunk" & "Everybody's so different, we're all insane" ?
Man this is a portal to a GIANT rabbit hole. A hole that has Joe Walsh, Don Henley, Glenn Frye and the Eagles in it. It all started with the Eagles. A truly iconic group that has had 10 songs reach classic status. A few are iconic. Then the rabbit hole splits into 3 when the group broke up and all 3 of them went on to successful solo careers. Each with multiple big songs. And then the Eagles got back together after a very long time. Like decades. And not only achieved success again by playing a mix of their old songs with their solo songs, but added about 4 more great new songs. Im tellin ya, this rabbit hole is very big. Probably over 20 distinct and memorable songs with release dates spanning 4 decades. Lol
This is that Rocker you mentioned when you reacted to Hotel California song by the Eagles.. the guy that was dueling with the double guitar player.. Joe Walsh is a Rocker in the truest sense.. lol
Joe is from NE Ohio. Rocky Mountain way rocks. Is one of the few I wish my girl could meet cuz she hella guitarist. She was raised about 10 miles from his home town and his teenage buddy stopped her in her tracks after a set. He played with Joe. Check his name Woody James. Measles was the first high school band.
Joe had his own band, James Gang and was Guitarist for the Eagles. Highly Suggest: 49 Funk (James Gang) Rocky Mountain Way (from Daryl Hall’s House) Hotel California (Eagles -live)
I like that sound too. They person playing keys is tracking the resonance of the analog filter using the keyboard. It's not a common sound used in rock music.
Joe Walsh is one of the most awesome musicians, and personalities in music history. You gotta check out "Rocky Mountain Way". He's great with the Eagles as well. "In the City" is a good song of his with them.
He probably made his first million with the James Gang. After the Eagles he probably stopped counting. Definitely one of the most spontaneous guitarists you’ll find.
You've seen Joe Walsh before man. When you reacted to Hotel California by The Eagles & you saw the guitar solo & you were talking about one of the guitar players saying this ones the rock star, that was Joe Walsh
One of the first albums I ever bought was "The Smoker you Drink, the Player you Get". Listen to Rocky Mountain Way. Classic. I believe he was a key member of The Eagles
I've got 2 Joel Walsh stories, I'll only share the one for now. Ok so in our household growing up we had the double lp live, and rocked out to it for years . . . Then one day something happened that made me look stupid. While out with friends somebody plays the studio version, I'm just a singing along and then out of the blue someone changed the lyrics. After a good long laugh, I ended up having to explain how it was I was more familiar with the live recording. I was a teenager at that time and now as an adult . . . The same thing happens.
May have been said already, but you picked him out as the "rock and roll guy" on your reaction to "Hotel California ". The reaction was 6 months ago, but just watched it last night. Btw, I was amazed at all you picked up on in that video. Really great job. Fun to watch

Joe Walsh had his own band then joined the Eagles. He is one of the two battling guitarists on Hotel California
Actually a couple before the eagles,. Remember the James gang and solo later

Hahahahaha
It was Glenn Fry.
@@jennhurl . . . Thanks, Jenny ! !
He is still in the Eagles... saw them on their last tour. Before pandemic.

Funk 49 is perfection
@@tjmctube I'm jealous
Last James Gang tour at Pine Knob north of detroit lol
I love Funk 49, I love all of Joe's music 🎵
Never asked for a request but THIS is my one: Joe Walsh "Rocky Mountain Way"! It's a jam & he uses the talk box. Official video or rock out with him singing it at Daryls House.
🔥🇺🇸✌😎👍🇺🇸🔥
Great tune .....one of my favorites another is ...Welcome To The Club 🔥
I vote for Daryl's House.
My hubby and I love the Live at Daryl's House performance!
Daryls House is so cool!
Joe Walsh never took himself seriously. Just a fun loving dude.
That’s how I picture him after listening to a wafflestomp :)
Joe Walsh has another great song called Walk Away with The James Gang. It's always been a personal favorite of mine.
Joe Walsh is a member of the band "The Eagles"! A very underrated guitarist! He's 🔥 on the strings!🤟👏👍
Not bad when you can do a guitar solo, duel, with Don "Fingers" Felder on Hotel California
I think Joe Walsh guaranteed HOF for the Eagles, without Joe, I'm not sure ..
@@shawnk7832 Yes, Joe kicked them up a notch but even before Joe came in, Don Felder was the one who gave them the kick that they needed to rock
Jor Walsh. Underrated? When?
I always rated that fool very highly. Havin fun being the fool is like being a king
You missed the best line after the mazarati. "My mazarati does 185. I lost my license, now I don't drive." 😆
That line really does set up the humor of the song
yeah, hurt that he missed that. It's the point, lol

@@sergiomattos109 ahh si. Mi dispiace y grazie.

Joe is still in the Eagles...since 1975! He just has side gigs and does solo work. The Eagles are another great classic rock rabbit hole to dive into. Their harmonies are AMAZING
"I can't complain but some times I still do"
"They say I'm lazy, but it takes all my time"
xD
Could be my favorite line in a song. And " i'm just lookin' for clues at the seen of the crime" that he probably committed🤣
The "I can't complain" comment I use All.The.Time. especially whenever someone asks the generic, "how u doin?"
Joe Walsh, Rocky Mountain Way. A 70's rock anthem !
Joe Walsh was a member of the Eagles, he's also the brother in law to Ringo Starr of the Beatles.
There’s a live cut of this sone where he says “people write me letters; tell me Don’s great” referencing Don Henley - band mate in The Eagles
Joe tells a story of his time in the band, The James Gang. They left Cleveland in a passenger van with five members headed to open a show in Detroit. When they made it to Detroit about four hours later, the band had 3 members.
Joe Walsh is National freaking Treasure & we need to protect him like Betty White. I'm a HUGE Walsh fan! Trust me - The Eagles benefitted from having Joe - not the other way around.

He's got studio/guest musicians for this. He definitely plays the guitars, sings, and writes it.
Gary of Gary and the Grinders, from Ft Smith, AR. is the guy playing here. He was his ghost player. He had a huge bar in FSA. He used to play where I bartended and OMG could that cat play! He would play like Jimmy Hendrix, if you shut your eyes you would swear it was Jimmy! Behind his back, written a Black and Decker drill..... you name it!!! Everything that band did was just like whoever they played. I loved them!
Joe Walsh, incredible guitarist, one of the best ever, and he is still rocking. James Gang, The Eagles. Listen to him play on Hotel California and many many others. You can pick out his sound anywhere. He has been sober for many years now...great great guy!!
Ahhhhhh, the tunes of my teen years!!!! Class of '84!!!
"Rocky Mountain Way" by Joe Walsh is my favorite!! This is fire too, great reaction.
Watch any interview with him you can. This song is all a true story of his life.
This song is about how Joe, never took himself too seriously in the whirlwind of fame. The whole peice is like a drunken jam session showcasing Joe's sick guitar skills, the keyboardist playing with early Moog synthesizers and fooling around!
My Dad once said the line, "I go to parties sometimes until 4, it's hard to leave when u can't find the door"...fits the story of why he and my Mom eventually broke up, lol
Seen this man 5 times in concert the most of any musician that I know. Would luv to c him again.
I saw in concert in OKC in the early 90s. On the song Rocky Mountain Way he started singing late. The next day in the newspaper they said how cool it was that he let the fans start the song. I think he was just so stoned he missed his pick up. One of th best concerts I ever went to.

He was on Daryl's house. You should check that out too.

Love Joe Walsh!! His humor comes through.
Went through a lot but what a good human came out the other end. Love Joe.
I got to see him perform this live in the mid 80's. Awesome experience. Good that you found the full album version and not one of the two cut short ones radio stations like.
I am a new subscriber. I got to see Joe Walsh's drummer Joe Vitale with Crosby, Stills and Nash at the Notre Dame ACC in 1977. Great show. Rock on!!!
You must listen to "The Confessor" or "Funk 49" by Joe...just sayin'
Joe Walsh's first band was The James Gang. Loved them.. Joe is a funny guy.
Joe is extremely entertaining and just plain fun!!!👌👍🎶🎼🎵✌️😎
The reason he was doing so good is because of 1) the James Gang and 2) The Eagles. Plus his solo career.
Joe is my favorite guitarist! Chase that rabbit! You will be delighted!!!😎
Beautiful and complex tune!! Congratulations Joe!!!!
Pure Greatness! Always a great part of Eagles Concerts.
Joe Walsh was 1/2 of the greatest rock solo of all time.
Joe Walsh - Living legend ♥️
♥♥♥ FUNK 49 by Joe Walsh is a must hear song!!

The band is, "The James Gang " Jimmy, Dale and Joe. Walsh left to join " The Eagles ". He fairly recently married Ringo Starrs wife's sister.
Great job. And thanks for playing with the equipment and figuring stuff out; it makes for a better experience for everyone.
That sander in yo house is like another instrument. It's complimentary lol

Also, you need to check out his song "Life of Illusion"
Been listening to Joe for over 50 years. Bought this album on vinyl when it first came out. This track/album is post-James Gang and pre-Eagles. He plyed guitar and keyboards with the James Gang, but stayed pretty uch just guitar after, Probably his best known track, but you chould give a listen to "Funk 49" with the Gang -- or the version he did with Daryl Hall on Daryl's House.
No many people on the planet have sold more records with their guitar on it than Joe Walsh.
In fact, maybe no one.
Anyone else remember the original line was- "I have a limo right in the trunk, I lock doors in case I get drunk" & "Everybody's so different, we're all insane" ?
The eye of the Confessor song, Joe Walsh. Awesome
Big props to you!!! Joe Walsh is an amazing, legendary (and funny) talent!

It didn't start with the Eagles. Joe started with the James Gang.
Meadows is another great tune by Walsh.

This is one of my all time favourite songs. Love it.
It is absolutely great song and a lot of fun LOL. This was really fun to watch brother LOL thank you
One of my favorite Walsh hits!
Man i love this song, i used to know how to play the opening riff when i was younger.

That's my all-time favorite album. Lots of awesome memories in those tunes.
I saw the Eagles 3 times. All with Joe Walsh. He stole the show every time.
Thank you for sharing this awesome song.
He's in his 60's or 70's now, but he can still play great, and sounds great. He is also Ringo Starr from The Beatles Brother in Law.
Early 70s. So is he married to Barbara's sister?
Joe had his own band, James Gang and was Guitarist for the Eagles. Highly Suggest:
49 Funk (James Gang)
Rocky Mountain Way (from Daryl Hall’s House)
Hotel California (Eagles -live)
I like that sound too. They person playing keys is tracking the resonance of the analog filter using the keyboard. It's not a common sound used in rock music.

Rock legend!!! Member of the Eagles and James Gang besides a solo career. Can't go wrong checking out any of the music.
He probably made his first million with the James Gang. After the Eagles he probably stopped counting. Definitely one of the most spontaneous guitarists you’ll find.
Yes, I use to have that albulm in the 70's
😆 Van, cannot believe you have not heard Joe Walsh, he is a Legend 🤘
You've seen Joe Walsh before man. When you reacted to Hotel California by The Eagles & you saw the guitar solo & you were talking about one of the guitar players saying this ones the rock star, that was Joe Walsh
I think This was one of his best albums....got it at tower records in san francisco....my sister took me i was 10...
Love you right back! Peace everyone!
Joe Walsh and Joe Biden both have the same birthday November 20
One of the first albums I ever bought was "The Smoker you Drink, the Player you Get". Listen to Rocky Mountain Way. Classic. I believe he was a key member of The Eagles
The buzz saw was killing me 😆. Made me think of SNL Cowbell. Listening to this I'm like, "The buzz saw is more prominent than I remember. "
One of the greatest guitar players of all time, and one of the funniest
Joe is married to Ringo Starr's (Beatles) sister and is part of Ringo's All Starr Band.
Excellent pick!
You would really like Rocky Mountain Way, and Funk #49
Beautiful song!!! Epica!!!!
I was a teenager in 78, we were all grooving and getting high with this song blasting,... THANKS for the memories 🥰
I've got 2 Joel Walsh stories, I'll only share the one for now.
Ok so in our household growing up we had the double lp live, and rocked out to it for years . . .
Then one day something happened that made me look stupid.
While out with friends somebody plays the studio version, I'm just a singing along and then out of the blue someone changed the lyrics.
After a good long laugh, I ended up having to explain how it was I was more familiar with the live recording.
I was a teenager at that time and now as an adult . . .
The same thing happens.
Love Joe...DO MORE!!!
Joe Walsh's band was the James Gang, but he was also part of the Eagles
Ah I remember a young Australian kid back in the day listening to this thanks mate 👍
Did you see The Eagles when they came to Sydney in 2010? Joe does this song and Rocky Mountain Way. The highlight of that concert!
He missed the very end "... uh-oh... Here comes a flock of Waaah Waaahs!!!..." 😆
May have been said already, but you picked him out as the "rock and roll guy" on your reaction to "Hotel California ". The reaction was 6 months ago, but just watched it last night. Btw, I was amazed at all you picked up on in that video. Really great job. Fun to watch
The Confessor by Joe Walsh is FIRE
One of the top tracks for flying the boat across the lake🤠
I love the sound.
Oooooo, We gettin da chillaxed bathrobe reaction. Much Love!!! #HOG
Joe Walsh with oscillating saw in the background. Just another day at work.
Joe Walsh was with the Eagles. He’s phenomenal.
