Joe Walsh - The Confessor

Still washing the taste of The Long Run out of my mouth. But we're well into Joe Walsh's "not enough good material for an album" period. Which isn't to say there aren't some good songs (eg The Confessor is great), but there's a lot of filler (eg 15 Years, I Broke My Leg) which disappoints, especially in comparison.

Tons of studio musicians on this (Marotta/Porcaro/Keltner), so the extensive use drum machines is surprising.

Joe Walsh - There Goes the Neighborhood

You listen to "...But Seriously, Folks" and this album, which bracket The Long Run, and you can't help but think: maybe the Eagles should have let Walsh put more songs on Eagles albums, instead of just two (Life in the Fast Lane and In the City).

I know a lot of Walsh stuff since "...But Seriously Folks" has been kindaof goofy and as such probably not Eagle-y. But at least it's fun to listen to. Mostly.

Joe Walsh - You Can't Argue with a Sick Mind

I've never understood why this album is only 35 minutes long...Walsh certainly had some cloud having just joined the Eagles, but maybe this was to finish out his contract with ABC (Elektra was next) and they didn't want to pony up for a double?

Well, they're 35 solid minutes, with good live versions of songs from the James Gang, Barnstorm and Joe Walsh periods... and various Eagles show up at the end.

🎧 Listening to "Rocky Mountain Way" this morning—the #JoeWalsh song from my reckless "youth."

We stoner/Boone's Farm winos in HS thought he was the coolest for naming the LP "The Smoker You Drink The Player You Get," and the lyrics

Spent the last year
Rocky Mountain Way
Couldn't get much higher

obviously referred to weed, didn't they?

Today, 50 years later, no longer fond of erasing my mind to block out the ugly in life, I'm impressed by the music!

"Life in the Fast Lane" is a song written by #JoeWalsh, #GlennFrey and #DonHenley, and recorded by American #rock band #Eagles for the band's fifth studio album #HotelCalifornia (1976). It was the third single released from this album, and peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100.

James Gang - Rides Again

Here's where the James Gang became the James Gang...because this is where Joe Walsh became the Joe Walsh who would later form Barnstorm. He has co-writing or solo credit on every track here, and it feels like a (good) Joe Walsh album.

Starting with the well-known Funk #49, this is pretty great from the first track to the last.

Out to pasture
Think it's safe to say
Time to open fire"
