Well this is our first video of July and the flash request post winner... Thank you to Gary S for suggesting this and for all of those who voted for it! Was this song sampled for "Footloose"?? The riff is so similar it's uncanny lol but wow what a good pump up song. I dig it so much.
I will be doing at least 2 "Flash Request" posts a month so make sure you have a good pick ready to go! You never know!

Joe Walsh signature songs,"Rocky Mountain way!" "Life's Been Good To Me So Far!","Walk Away!"

"Walk Away" from James Gang, as a suggestion. I can't stand it when our songs get sampled in other songs, corny movies, or commercials. Now "Footloose" is stuck in my head. Thank you, Lee.

@MedSurg420 9 дней назад

Personally I think sampling is good for the longevity of this music. After all, if someone hears Rhymin' and Stealin' they might wonder where that guitar riff or that drumbeat comes from, and now you have a new listener to classic rock.

@stevedahlberg8680 4 дня назад

@MedSurg420 As a music lover and a musician of many years, I absolutely agree. I also like the fact that so many of them show up in video games, and now I like the fact there are reaction channels with people who genuinely get interested in it.

Joe was more of a hired gun in the Eagles. His guitar style is unique. His work with Barnstorm is also great. Really underrated songwriter.

Joe is definitely merely a hired gun with The Eagles. Joe Walsh, Timothy B. Schmit, Vince Gill and Deacon Frey are members of The Eagles in name only. They are still consdered hired guns along with the touring drummer Scott Crago, Steuart Smith, Will Hollis nd Michael Thompson.

When we saw the James Gang live reunion, it rained so bad that only about 1/3 of the audience came to a sold out show. When the trio hit the stage, the first thing that came out of Walsh's mouth was, "Hiya! We're the James Gang, and as you can see, most of our fan base is dead." 😅

@realbser1956 10 дней назад

Probably their most played song on the radio. A great band, funky but they could rock out too. I always felt that Joe never took himself too seriously which is part of his greatness, plus he’s one of the best guitarists too. Thanks Lee, good pick Gary.

@robinreiley1828 10 дней назад

Saw James Gang at RPI in 1970. They only played one 45 minute set, we had dropped Acid just before walking in , so we were peaking just as the show ended! The song ""The Bomber" was the high point of Joe's performance, a great example of Joe's Slide Guitar!

The Drew Carey Show which ran in the 90s had a story arc in which they decided to revive their old band, the Horn Dogs, which featured Drew on accordion. There was a hilarious episode in which they auditioned guitarists including Slash, Billy Gibbons, Lisa Loeb among others. The winner was a stoned out guy named Ed played by Joe Walsh. One of their shows featured an outro with the revived James Gang playing Funk #49.

@stevedahlberg8680 4 дня назад

Also check out his solo stuff! Rocky Mountain Way, Life's Been Good, etc. Yeah, totally love the afrobeat and just the really long wall of percussion and vocal beats.

I grew up about 15 miles East of Cleveland, Ohio, and began lessons and playing drums in 1963..My first band played most every club in the Cleveland area, most of which were teen clubs... no alcohol. The James Gang started with a guitarist named Glenn Schwartz, who was fantastic even then, at age 17. We played all of the same stages as the James Gang, many times on the same night. When Glenn moved to the West coast Joe joined the band. Most of my best memories are music related from back during those years. Eric Carmen was the singer for a great vocal band named The Choir, then they became The Rasberries. A short time later Eric went off on his solo gig.

I did this in a band that went nowhere in '86. Love singing this. Joe is fantastic. He sold Jimmy Page Page's first Les Paul. Joe had 2 and he only liked one so Jimmy bought the other and recorded many iconic Zep tunes on it. So thank Joe for some of Page's sound. At the time Gibson was rare in UK so he jumped all over it...then smacked it with a violin bow lol.

@RichardSchaefer-zx9ig 10 дней назад

Nice reaction to the classic James Gang's "Funk 49". One of the best Trios ever in rock, when JW was a member. James Gang "Thirds" is one of my all time faves, top 10. Walk Away leads off but give "Again" a listen. Joe Walsh's solo career was hot and cold but "Barnstorm" + "So What" are 2 LPs where his unique guitar really shines (layered w keyboards). Another place you can see JW is as a producer. Dan Fogelberg's "Souvenirs" LP was a Joe Walsh production and on the 6 tracks he plays guitar are pretty epic (Fogelberg was singer/songwriter, pretty mellow). Finally James Gang opened for 3 Dog Night @ Yale Bowl in 1970 and I didn't go but an older friend did, I was 16. When I asked him about the concert, he said "James Gang pissed all over 3 Dog Night". Please more Joe Walsh. + w the Eagles you know when he wrote the song (In the City etc).

Take a Look Around, Funk #48 and their cover of Steven Still’s Bluebird were favorites. Stone Rap is amazing. James Gang was a big influence on other groups and JW as well.

My 8 Track player in my car kept eating this. Luckily I developed a technique for getting the tape to quickly zip back into the cartridge. I have a memory of sitting in my hot car along the railroad tracks of the Hudson River Line listening to this great tune smoking my home grown. A couple years later "The Smoker You Drink the Player You Get" came out and I listened to Rocky Mountain Way as I spent six weeks driving from N.Y. to Oregon. I ended up deciding to settle down in Jackson Hole. Thanks for the inspiration Joe. "So What" is a great album to hit. The song called 'County Fair" is a personal favorite that's worth a listen

I became a fan of Joe Wolf from day. One and of course, have followed his career since and I still remain the same. In my opinion, he's great, he's funny. He can do it all. He can actually jam with almost anybody. He's that versatile and can go with whatever direction somebody's jamming to. If you have a mind too, you should check out. A RU-vid channel which is Daryl Hall's channel and it broadcasts from his log. Cabin type home sound studio. It's a great channel anyway. No matter who he has there, because he brought in some of the greatest of all times and jams with them. And I mention this because Joe Walsh and Daryl had a great time when it was Wallace's turn to show up at his house. So I do recommend that channel overall because of the great music that comes from these guys jamming and I always like their haul, but I truly grew in my admiration of him from watching that channel of his and how versatile he is and the number of songs that he can sing that were made popular by some of the. Greats.

I was playing drums with a "pick-up" group at a party once back in the 80's, only knew the bass player and we'd played before quite a bit (he brought me to the party). Met this amazing guitar player and we just started jamming out old classics. Then we hit this song and I was like, "sure, I know that one!". Once we started playing, I notice my buddy looking at me while playing the bass. He had a odd look on his face, like questioning me, but I couldn't figure out what he was on about. Then I remembered the drum solo. He was wondering if I was going attempt to improvise a solo at the next break. In my head I could just heard a wall of Latin percussion instruments join in with the drums for the solo on the studio version of the song. I didn't respond in time and they both fell away looking to me for a miracle. It may have been the closest I've ever come to performing one behind the drums. I dropped into the groove and started working it around for a bit, adding more til I got sloppy, then brought it to a close and back into the Funk!
