- A friend of mine who died of lung cancer last year told me about going to see Joe perform years ago. He said Joe was very drunk and couldn't sit on his stool without falling off occasionally. He said Joe never missed a note and played perfectly. Total professional. Drunk but totally pro.
I probably would have gone out with him in the ol days!! I just think he's just incredibly talented and I have loved his music & the eagles always raised my kids on this music 🎶 ❤ and makes feels complete JOY!! WHAT MORE CAN ASK FOR JOY FROM SOMEONE... BEAUTIFUL !!
As a 60 Yr old now I started collecting vinyl all over again. Along the way picking up James Gang, Eagles, and then Joe Walsh records. Always loved his tunes, but noticed his crazy sense of humour looking at his vinyl. Joe Walsh albums are all wacky covers, funny, openings on the wrong side, labeled goofy, like puzzles, I love it! its his way of saying who gives a shit about standards, it about the ride. This vid makes all sense now.
Ran into Joe at Ardent Studios in memphis tn, he was looking for his box for his 2 inch tape reel, he found it in the room I was in and he looked right at me and said "see, I TOLD you the box was in here!" I was starstruck and dumbfounded at 18 years old, Joe Walsh just spoke to me! :O
I love Joe Walsh. I saw him perform with the Eagles in 1978. One of the greatest musicians to ever grace the stage however his Dynamic personality outshines them all for sure for real.
Me! Saw him in 78 for the first time! Saw him this year and will continue to see him as long as went both alive! The dude gets better with time! Who still listens to Joe Walsh...shit dude the whole fucking world!!
I bought 'Got Any Gum' when I heard on KLBJ FM in Austin, YEARS ago, that Joe Walsh would soon be doing a 'meet n greet' at Budget Tapes and Records, waited in the Incredibly Lonng line, while Joe told stories and jokes and ASSURED us all that he would not be leaving at the designated time given for the event, but would be there until Everyone got there turn. And when I got my turn, I asked him to please sign my album "To Rochelle, (my mom), From the Best Eagle, Joe Walsh". To which he obliged.😎 I thanked him and expressd that THAT was in both of our opinions, (with due respect to ALL band members 😌🙏), the Truth of the matter.🎸🤟🏼 And I WON 🙂 on her birthday.😀 Thanks again Joe. You ARE the Coolest😎.
Sometimes I enjoy a lyric story more than the song, but Joe nailed it. I love it both. Remembering vagely from the press back then that he was in trouble trshing hotel rooms all over the tour routes. Glad he had an acountant "who paid for it all".
That was cool and funny to finally find out how that great song came about.. God that song brings back great memories of my and the boys (my dad my brother and me); and my sister riding on a long trip to it think it was Stanford springs for a swap meet.. and it had to be like near or after midnight and were all jamming to the radio.. listening and singing the long version of life's been good .. and just having a blast.. when I hear the song it makes me laugh,smile and cry for the memories.. God my parents brought us up right .. with the best of every thing especially our love for music... thank you Joe Walsh and all the other great bands that gave us the most awesome pantheon of music throughout our lives!! ❤🎼🎵🎶
4/28/2023 What a great way to tell this story. It's nice to see and hear someone be honest and self abasingly funny about his former life. For me, I was in attendance when Joe and "The James Gang" played their last bar gig, at a club called "The Jail" in Strongsville, Ohio, the night before the went to record their first album. It was the first time `I ever saw or heard them too. I've followed Joe's career ever since, something I hardly ever do. We've been loosing a lot of folks recently, I hope Joe lives for ever, well, not really, just a long time to come. ;-)
My teenage years spent dragging the strip in my 68 El Camino with girlfriends, windows down, 8-track cranking out Joe Walsh - good stuff, good memories - thank you!
I think the syndrome that happens when someone has been sober for a long time after been drunk for a long time they call it a dry drunk or a wet brain I forget whether you have a wet brain or you're a dry drunk but one of those syndromes holds true I guess you could guess you could have a wet brain and be a dry drunk or could you have a wet brain I don't know anyway
Joe gave me my first guitar lessons when i was 4 yrs old. it was a trade off for using my brothers silvertone amp when he played the bars of Kent State University. this was back in 1963-64. he turned my parents on to getting me involved in music fulltime, and now i can thank him for giving me a music career, though not a famous career, it is still a life in music that has paid all my bills since the 1970s. by the way...back then, he lived in a Volkswagon bus and ate a lot of bologna and mustard sandwiches. he couldn't afford an amp and was teaching local kids guitar to make extra money. i would love to contact him personally and give him a big thank you. doubt if he remembers that time in his life, but i do.
I saw the Eagles when they were on their History tour, months before Glenn's death. When I heard the opening riffs of this song, I involuntarily jumped up and screamed. The people in front of me turned to look and one of them asked hubs, "Is she OK?" Good Times. I've been huge fan of Joe's since 'Funk 49' when he was still with The James Gang.
Wow Joe is such a great comedian, guitar player and what a great story teller!! Thanks so much for posting or we never would have gotten to experience this amazing performance! So glad to see Joe sober and kicking ass. Love this , thanks again!!
I'm 81yrs young. I just recently discovered Joe Walsh. Wish I had not been soo country. I truly love the man from back then, n now for sure. Can't get enough of him. 💖🎼👵
Joe plays with so much soul and feeling. Very emotional guitar playing. " In the City" is a good example. I listen to Joe's guitar on all Eagles songs, you can tell when he wrote the song or just a lick, or riff.
You sir, are one of the best ever! A guitar in your hands just fits, and what comes out is like a statement of your life of fantastic music! It is like it is part of you, it speaks for you! I will always cherish the music that you are involved in! 😊🎸💤👍👏😁🇺🇲♾️
Joe Recently said that "He and his band didn't know what they were doing on stage." I still don't think he fathoms how brilliant him and The Eagles were. Common I think with music artists of his caliber. Such perfectionists.
I remember when I lived in the Detroit area, Joe played guest D.J. sometime in the '80s for a week when the morning crew went on vacation on WRIF, FM. He would play records, do some live stuff and tell stories too. I don't think I ever laughed so hard as I did the mornings of that week! He has so many talents and as this video proves, storytelling is very much one of them. Love ya Joe, you're one of my all time favorite performers!
This is one of my mom's favorite songs. Thanks to her, I was exposed to some great music at an early age. I guess you could say I was rocking in the crib. 🎸👶❤ Thanks, Mom.... Miss you!
I absolutely LOVE Joe! He's such a genuine guy &I think even funnier sober. He & Felder together on dueling guitars was sheer magic. I miss that so much.
f-ing Joe, I flat-out love the guy. From early James Gang to The Smoker You Drink and The Eagles and all the great solo work, what a treasure. So glad he beat his alcohol problem. What a great guitar player, a seriously great player. Not just a player but a truly great musician! Guys like him inspired me to first pick up the guitar and 40 years later I just want to say thanks.
"One of the most terrifying things that ever happened to me is that Keith Moon decided he liked me." I love that statement. You just know an amazing story is coming after a statement like that.
