@@Reno_Slim Great song..He's definitely the comedian just by those wacky pants he always wears.. Went to see Bob Seger like 8 yrs.ago & Joe Walsh opened for him.. I personally was there for Joe he rocks it out in Concert!! Loved it

YES!!! Joe F'ing Walsh..! "In The City" "Turn To Stone" "The Confessor" "Life Of Illusion" "Life's Been Good" and a really good slow one "Help Me Through The Night".
Joe Walsh has an amazing talent for taking different sounds, etc., and fitting them together in ways that make outstanding music. He has numerous hits, but this is my favorite.
A truly sweet man, I met him after a concert he did with Tom Petty in Gainesville FL. I was in the hospital, he came to the pediatric floor to sign autographs. I asked he would sign 5 more, for my siblings. With a small laugh, he replied, "sure". A memory I hold dear.
Of course I have met him, but I always thought Joe Walsh was a good guy. I'm glad to hear it's true. I would have been disappointed if I found out otherwise.
Joe Walsh being interviewed on The Bob & Tom Show: Tom: You toured with Ozzy & Black Sabbath, right? Joe: Yeah...we must have. I don't remember, but we MUST have, I mean...we have the posters, so it must have hapened.
This brings back great memories of 1976-77 when this song was played instead of a bell to signal that it was lunch time in high school. In😃 the words of Joe Walsh.... "I had more fun being 20 in the 70`s than I do being 70 in the 20`s"
I was married with children when this came out. Never thought I'd get to see Joe Walsh in concert. Then i got divorced. Started going to concerts. Joe Walsh joined the Eagles and we went to see them. They did this song. Man, that was a great concert!!
One of my favorite Joe Walsh stories is the one he tells about how he decided to play guitar. He was watching the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show and his head was bobbing up and down. Then he looked at his parents on the couch and their heads were shaking from side to side...and the rest is history! As far as the Eagles, he wasn't a founding member. He had his own success before & after.
Joe is still a member of the Eagles! He Joined the band when they recorded Hotel California. He was in the James Gang and was a solo artist before that.
I remember the Hotel California tour; in the Bay Area at lest, The James Gang opened for the Eagles - and Walsh was on stage for the entire time, and never seemed to run out of energy.
@@timfoley6718 Genre was fairly country to begin with. They were hanging with Linda Ronstadt at a Country bar in LA. All of Desperado is pretty country in the roots.
Joe Walsh was one of my favorite musicians long before he joined the Eagles. I saw him live solo in the late 70's; he was awesome, and the crowd just poured the love on him.
"Those Shoes" by the Eagles. Joe Walsh has his "talk box". "In The City" by the Eagles, Joe's singing. It was featured during the end credits of the cult classic movie called The Warriors.
@SouthVA 757 They'd already turned rockier with One Of These Nights in '75, which started their ascent into the stratosphere. Walsh brought more firepower and helped them get there. But Leadon gave them Witchy Woman, which which makes me wonder why he felt he could only do country. Felder, Leadon & Frey are on fire in the very rocky "Visions" (never understood why that wasn't a hit). Leadon could do everything. ..... Maybe he just didn't want to.
Joe was a big player by himself long before the Eagles. Joe's earlier band the James Gang was fire also during and after the Eagles Joe made solo albums.
Love watching you young Kats listen to the music of Jersey Joe that I was jam'n to on my 74" Shovelhead Chopper out on the Garden State Parkway back in the mid 70's when they opened ithe GSP up to motorcycles ... Peace & Love always to you and yours Jam
@Matt Colson I saw him once, right after this song became a huge hit. But I caught him on a bad night. He was completely lethargic. Hardly looked at the audience. Acted half asleep. I still love him but wish it'd been different. I'm sure it wasn't typical.💙
Deborah Cornell Actually Joe seems to be drunk all the time. I saw him on his birthday and it was clear he was lit. The second time I saw him he was present but his speech sounds odd almost slurred. But man he could play that damned guitar no matter what. I just get up for his music. Powerful
I walked right past him... at a music store in Andover Kansas... I had just finished paying for my first 88 key Fender Rhodes in 1984.. and was loading it into my van to get it to the rehearsal place and set it up with the band.. I was so excited that I didnt even realize it was Joe Walsh until I was about 1/2 mile away... and that was when the bass player said... 'did you realize that was Joe Walsh?'.... it sounds crazy but Joe was born in Wichita and still has family there...
You are such a kind person I can tell. I am an older woman that grew up with this music and you are the only reaction person I watch. Your sweetness shows in every video
@@nemo4907 Just my opinion but I've always thought Funk #48 is better that than #49... but its was never really played on the radio! ua-cam.com/video/vkZepbHIrvE/v-deo.html
Joe made a cameo appearance in the original Blues Brothers film.....amongst the bunch of convicts dancing at the end...he dances on the table...good part for him!!
Jamel, your audience are true classic rock fans. I'm a huge classic rock fan too. Been a fan since 1979. I'm reading these comments and I am just loving the spectacular knowledge that they alm have. I learned so much about Joe Walsh just by reading every comment. I'm writing this valuable information in my notebook of Classic Rock Facts
Joe Walsh is from Wichita KS - after a devastating tornado in the Wichita and Andover Kansas area in 1990 he gave a benefit concert - It was a Great Concert and a Great thing for him to do!
Fun Fact: If anybody remembers the Drew Carey Show, there was one season where Drew and his friends form a Band, and they get Joe Walsh to be their guitarist.
@Will1972Akron.O Yeah I remember when I took my first guitar to Lay's Guitar, on Kenmore Blvd, and I saw a picture of a customed Cleveland Indians guitar on the wall. I asked them who that was for and the said Joe Walsh. The guy said Joe sends his stuff there to be worked on. I felt like a rock star after that, even though I couldn't play a lick!
I'm from Cleveland and we felt like he was our adopted son because he went to Kent State and he loved Ohio. That's probably why Drew was able to get him on.
Saw him at Peppers in Dayton....sucked! ....took a break, staggered out of the restroom with an empty bottle of whiskey and cocaine smeared all over his face....album perfect!........I do remember some of the 80's.
Joe is definitely not “from” the Eagles. He was a legit star in his own right, both as a solo artist and as leader of The James Gang, well before the Eagles recruited him to give their flaccid sound some actual balls. Funk #49 Walk Away Life’s Been Good Life of Illusion The Bomber In The City Turn To Stone
@@EJ-tm1fe Yes,he was more rock/Bluesy as Jamel described... I still love the Eagle's & Joe definitely added more flair & craziness with his outfits Lol
They were all musicians long before The Eagles. Each was a big name. I love The Eagles but it was a shit storm behind the scenes. Reminds me of The Beatles. Went exactly the same way, two got it in their head that they were bigger than the rest instead of playing as an actual group
This came out a year or two before Joe became an Eagle . He was already a major artist in his own right . A few years later when The Eagles came to town , my friends and I went to the gig just to see Joe . It was many years ago , 1976 I think . From memory he played this song and Turned to Stone and maybe one or two other solo tracks . He was the best musician on the stage that night , that's for sure .
Joe is amazing - and has lived two lives. He's a humble man now, and thanks the guys he's close to for helping him get clean. As he said, "I only got drunk once....for 20 years". Love Joe!
Yes,that's true.. I believe it was mentioned in the Eagles Documentary,it's a 2- Parter definitely worth watching. I enjoyed it, very informative.. It was on a cable network called AXS always has rock documentary's & rock concerts love that station. Try watching it
@@iahelcathartesaura3887 No problem.Love to share that Channel for all of us die hard Rockers!!! By the way if you love Sammy?? As I do,he has his own show on there where he interviews other Rockers & Dan Rather has one also my favorite channel can't you tell??!! Sammy is on I believe on Sunday evenings
I heard that the other story I heard was once the band had gotten together it was winter and they thought they brought in everything so they started recording during a snowstorm. Halfway though the storm they realized they forgot to bring in the drums and had to wait until it started to melt then record the drums!
OMG one of my most very fave pieces from my early days......thanx for this ♥ still love him to this day......not originally from the Eagles but joined later....yes he is that good that they asked him....
JOE WALSH, AND "ROCKY MOUNTAIN WAY"... DURING HIS SOLO CAREER. AFTER STARTING WITH THE JAMES GANG... SONGS WORTH REACTING TOO. "THE CONFESSOR"...THE JAMES GANG "WALK AWAY", "FUNK 49". JOINED THE EAGLES DURING THE HOTEL CALIFORNIA DAYS...
Captain Jamel_AKA_Jamal.💯AWESOME N AMAZING it's absolutely amazing to hear this song again it brings back so many good memories what a great artist mr. Joe Walsh is and always will be and yes he was once part of the Eagles like Mr Don Henley who has another great string of hits from his own outing after the Eagles 100% things for your reactions and for your fun in for your joy please stay safe stay strong and stay healthy and remember we're all taking this one step at a time and we're all grateful for your help and your amazing reactions and videos keep up the good work man you are AWESOME.. Peace ✌
Listen to the guitar riffs, this was a warm up for hotel California. Which was one of the greatest guitar riffs of all time. Love Joe, this man had his own style!
Joe Walsh is the real deal.. got to see him in concert a few years ago when he joined Bob Segar... it was almost too much to take in! Thanks for your great review... smiles for sure.
Yeah he was in The Eagles & his voice is like that. He was in the James Gang. The song rom The Eagles to check out is “Those Shoes” because there was two guitars Don Felder & Joe Walsh.
Joe Walsh is one of the greatest guitar players to pick up a pic. I first heard him, or started listening to him, the week I turned 18. I was spending the summer at my cousins house. His father hired me to paint the house. But anyways, my cousins loved Joe Walsh and played him all day and all night. If you watch the lead in to "Hotel California" on their latest tour, "Hell Freezes Over" tour, you can hear him do a solo performance that's out of this world. Thanks for keeping the entertainment going. Loved this one.
@@ELEcomments Funk#49 is just the start. The Bomber, Stop, Woman, Funk#48, Collage, Ashes the Rain and I, Walk away is right in there, lets do them all for Jamel!
Check out Joe when he was with the "James Gang". Funk 49.
Oh yeah! James Gang! Funk is great and also Walk Away is worth a reaction.
Definitely check out Funk 49
James Gang with Joe put out some great music! From the 1971 album Thirds, check out White Man/Black Man. Just as relevant now.
Yep! I'm here to plug these two James Gang songs: Walk Away and Funk 49.
Rocky Mountain Way addressees why he left The James Gang.
"Joe is an interesting bunch of guys" I believe said by Glenn Frey
Yes they are! Always interesting!
When considered for Eagles, Glen also said, "I know this guy. He can't sing and is ugly as sin but damn he can play" 🤣
HAHAHA Thats a a perfect quote to describe Joe Walsh
He was the original talk box guitarist. Peter should've gave him some credit...
Cool reference.
He's been a huge rock star since he was a teenager. James Gang, his solo stuff, the Eagles, more solo stuff. Plus he's funny and cool as hell!
Great sense of humour and totally cool! A really nice guy - he's supported veterans for years and founded VetsAid in 2017.
He's just an ordinary average guy.

YES!!! Joe F'ing Walsh..! "In The City" "Turn To Stone" "The Confessor" "Life Of Illusion" "Life's Been Good" and a really good slow one "Help Me Through The Night".
I love all of those-especially "Turn to Stone." Cannot go wrong with Joe Walsh.
Nick there a video of he and Felder playing turn to stone,,Houston I believe...best that I’ve heard. Gotta check it out!

Saying Joe Walsh is from The Eagles is like saying Paul McCartney is from Wings.
yes, great point!
Joe Walsh made the Eagles cool. He added that needed touch.
I agree Ben Salem.
Kinda what I thought!
I liked your comment but you cant compare the eagles with wings sorry just no

This song is off one of the greatest titled albums ever: The Smoker You Drink The Player You Get
He has some fun album titles.
'Got Any Gum?'
My favorite album title from him is, "You Bought it - You Name It"
Love it! Another great album name from that era, Faces "A Nod is As Good As A Wink...to a Blind Horse".
Remember ILBT's?
Joe Walsh on partying with John Belushi, "We were up for a couple of weeks that night."
Joe spent the 1970s partying with John Belushi and Keith Moon... and lived!!!
His story about them spray painting their jeans to get into that restaurant is epic. Glad he's clean and still alive.....
Glenn Frey on Joe Walsh, "Joe was an interesting bunch of guys."
Lol
Remarkable he's still here with us and we're glad he is!

You are a light, uniting us through music, love and kindness. Thank you so much and to your wife for all your hard work. It's been such a joy.
I've loved him for years, and have said for years, that he needs to be in the R&R HOF as a solo artist ;0
He hasn't been included? That is so wrong on so many levels!
Joe is still a member of the Eagles! He Joined the band when they recorded Hotel California. He was in the James Gang and was a solo artist before that.
"For the record, we never broke up. We just took a 14 year vacation."
I remember the Hotel California tour; in the Bay Area at lest, The James Gang opened for the Eagles - and Walsh was on stage for the entire time, and never seemed to run out of energy.
Funk 49, etc. The Confessor....
i heard the brought Joe into the band because they thought their sound was becoming
a little to country.
@@timfoley6718 Genre was fairly country to begin with. They were hanging with Linda Ronstadt at a Country bar in LA. All of Desperado is pretty country in the roots.
I’m watching like, “Jamal doesn’t even know what’s about to happen!”
Great comment Sharek a beauty....laffing out loud how true
Joe started in The James Gang Then went solo with songs like this THEN he joined The Eagles in '76? for Hotel California album.
There was Barnstorm after TJG. They weren't together that long.
Joe Walsh was one of my favorite musicians long before he joined the Eagles. I saw him live solo in the late 70's; he was awesome, and the crowd just poured the love on him.
"Those Shoes" by the Eagles. Joe Walsh has his "talk box". "In The City" by the Eagles, Joe's singing. It was featured during the end credits of the cult classic movie called The Warriors.
Yes. Ive asked for Those Shoes before. Would love to hear it
I think I did too...or maybe that was another channel. 😆
Those Shoes! By the Eagles is a must JamelAKAJamal
Studio version remastered to get the full eargasm my brother✌🏿
His solo version of "In The City" has a more raw feeling to it.
Joe Walsh was Joe Walsh before the Eagles, and after the Eagles. His discography is excellence and plentiful (more than 14 albums, not incl. Eagles)
His solo stuff is better than the Eagles.

Joe Walsh: The Confessor. You wont be disappointed!
Underrated!
Lol I just commented almost word for word this same comment 😂😂😂😂
Oh yes I requested The Confessor Brother Jamal this is a great one by Joe Walsh
The Confessor
Yes! A fucking awesome and underrated song.
Joe is a great slide guitar player that learned from THE best: Duane Allman.
showed him the basics but I think Joe learned a thing or three.
@@michaelbochnia5686 absolutely true. I just said that because Joe gives Duane the credit.
Joe was a big player by himself long before the Eagles. Joe's earlier band the James Gang was fire also during and after the Eagles Joe made solo albums.
I became an Eagles fan after Joe joined. I always thought he changed the entire dynamic of the band.
Here is my favorite James Gang song - Walk Away:

It's only a matter of time now. "Life's Been Good" will grace this channel with its presence.
I love people who love music with an open mind! Joe Walsh was ear candy to me as a young child. I love watching the joy on your face as you groove!
He made an appearance on "Live from Daryl's House" and performed this song. Totally awesome live version that jams with Daryl Hall(Hall and Oates).
I love watching that show!
It's my favorite live music cooking show.
That was such a treat!
Ya,,,that jam showed the real personality of Joe Walsh. Cool as hell.

I went to a Joe Walsh concert a couple of years ago. Oh, and the Eagles were there, too.
😎
I cannot be the first to say this, but Joe Walsh is the man the Eagles REALLY needed to get them where they got back in the day
You are truly the light that many of us need, especially in these times. Thank you!
Joe was an established artist with The James Gang, before joining The Eagles around 1975.
James Gang -. Walk Away. Joe's first band.
Yes that is awesome
Great song! Love it!
There's an amazing live version where jimmy fox goes off. Search it...it's the psychedelic one
@@stranger396 that's the one I'm hoping he does. The one for TV right.
This came out a year or two before Joe became an Eagle . He was
already a major artist in his own right . A few years later when The Eagles
came to town , my friends and I went to the gig just to see Joe . It was many
years ago , 1976 I think . From memory he played this song and Turned to Stone
and maybe one or two other solo tracks . He was the best musician on the stage
that night , that's for sure .
Jamel_AKA_Jamal: Be the light, buddy! Thank you for spreading love and joy. It's good to see you and hear you.
Joe is amazing - and has lived two lives. He's a humble man now, and thanks the guys he's close to for helping him get clean. As he said, "I only got drunk once....for 20 years". Love Joe!
He wrote this while cutting his grass in Colorado. He came up with the lyrics and wrote them on a napkin sitting in the backyard.
Yes,that's true.. I believe it was mentioned in the Eagles Documentary,it's a 2- Parter definitely worth watching. I enjoyed it, very informative.. It was on a cable network called AXS always has rock documentary's & rock concerts love that station. Try watching it
@@jcbulldog533 Wow thank you! I will find & watch that, and share it!
@@iahelcathartesaura3887 No problem.Love to share that Channel for all of us die hard Rockers!!! By the way if you love Sammy?? As I do,he has his own show on there where he interviews other Rockers & Dan Rather has one also my favorite channel can't you tell??!! Sammy is on I believe on Sunday evenings
I heard that the other story I heard was once the band had gotten together it was winter and they thought they brought in everything so they started recording during a snowstorm. Halfway though the storm they realized they forgot to bring in the drums and had to wait until it started to melt then record the drums!
LOVE that you listened to this one! This is my ringtone! Glad you love it too! Joe is amazing!!!
OMG one of my most very fave pieces from my early days......thanx for this ♥ still love him to this day......not originally from the Eagles but joined later....yes he is that good that they asked him....
So glad Joe is still with us. We almost lost him to cocaine and alcohol. He’s been one of my favorites since The James Gang.
"the confesser" by Joe Walsh is 🔥
My favorite Joe Walsh song! AWESOME!💯 The lyrics got to me hard on the first listen and his guitar work is incredible!🔥😁✌️❤️
Life's been good thats one of my favorite Joe Walsh songs .
You’re doing a great job!!! You bring joy to my twin brother and I everyday!! God bless you!!! Thank you!!!
JOE WALSH, AND "ROCKY MOUNTAIN WAY"... DURING HIS SOLO CAREER. AFTER STARTING WITH THE JAMES GANG... SONGS WORTH REACTING TOO. "THE CONFESSOR"...THE JAMES GANG "WALK AWAY", "FUNK 49". JOINED THE EAGLES DURING THE HOTEL CALIFORNIA DAYS...
If you liked this, Funk 49, in my opinion, is the James Gang best song.
Funk 49 then Funk 48
Love it!
Totally agree!
Funk 49 is a great song by the James Gang.
This times a million. Pure Joe Walsh.
Great song...when I put together my 1st stereo in 1978, I called the local FM Station and requested this...and played it LOUD!!!
One of my favorite songs back in the day...loving the throwbackness♡
No Joe Walsh reaction is complete without "Life's Been Good". As for Lynyrd Skynyrd, "The Ballad Of Curtis Lowe".
Spot on !!
Fuck yeah Curtis Lowe! Baddest picker to ever play the blues.
My favorite Joe Walsh song!!! Tied for first though is “Life’s been good to me”!! Do that one next!!! Great reaction as always Jamel!!
Joe Walsh has magic in his fingers and his imagination! Thank you Jamel! You're a definitely a light !✌🙏

Now go back to Joe's early days with The James Gang..."Funk #49". It's a party in a song!!🧨🎉💙
YES. FUNK #49!!!!!!! Jamel please try Funk #49, favorite tune! Funk number 49, not hashtag 49 young man!
My dad is good friends with Jimmy Fox from the James Gang. Really cool guy.
Joe Walsh was in the James gang and did this song BEFORE he joined the eagles. All those album covers in the video were all pre-eagles stuff.
Listen to the guitar riffs, this was a warm up for hotel California. Which was one of the greatest guitar riffs of all time. Love Joe, this man had his own style!
Dan Westerhouse still does
At 60 years old I've been blessed to experience 100's if not 1000's of great artists that have created masterpieces!
Born in 1963.
So so so blessed to have lived in this era.
Joe Walsh is the real deal.. got to see him in concert a few years ago when he joined Bob Segar... it was almost too much to take in! Thanks for your great review... smiles for sure.
That must have been one hell of a show.
Yeah he was in The Eagles & his voice is like that. He was in the James Gang. The song rom The Eagles to check out is “Those Shoes” because there was two guitars Don Felder & Joe Walsh.
That song is perfect! The guitars, the vocals... perfect!
He IS in the Eagles!
Love The Eagles( one of my all time favorite bands) Love Joe Walsh solo as well. All of the boys in the Eagles do solo so well.💗✌
Joe Walsh is one of the greatest guitar players to pick up a pic. I first heard him, or started listening to him, the week I turned 18. I was spending the summer at my cousins house. His father hired me to paint the house. But anyways, my cousins loved Joe Walsh and played him all day and all night. If you watch the lead in to "Hotel California" on their latest tour, "Hell Freezes Over" tour, you can hear him do a solo performance that's out of this world. Thanks for keeping the entertainment going. Loved this one.
one of the best rock songs ever recorded
Joe Walsh, “Life’s Been Good”, “A Life of Illusion”
Omg! I saw The Eagles in concert last night at Vivint Arena Salt Lake City. Hearing this song live was absolutely incredible!
Growing up a latchkey kid, I used to play this while making breakfast before heading off to the bus and high school. Best way to start the day!
If you like this, you’ll love the James Gang song “Funk 49”. ❤️
I like Walk Away better personally
@@ELEcomments Funk#49 is just the start. The Bomber, Stop, Woman, Funk#48, Collage, Ashes the Rain and I, Walk away is right in there, lets do them all for Jamel!
@@michaelbochnia5686 Funk 50, also.
ua-cam.com/video/34abRUUeslw/v-deo.html Walk away
ua-cam.com/video/FEaSjbMWrHs/v-deo.html Funk 49
Second the requests for Life’s Been Good. Hilarious lyrics about life as a rock n roller.
Jamel you are definitely the man. I've played music for over 30 years and MAN you bring the energy. Keep it up my man. LOVE your channel
Thanks. You remind me of songs I have enjoyed over the years. It's great to hear another person be so positive everyday.
