HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOE WALSH - Here’s to the wildman who sold Jimmy Page his inconic “Number 1” Les Paul and injected life into the Eagles when they needed it dearly. Operating out of Detroit in the early days, Walsh had been looking to put a band together ever since he had gotten out of college. Forming the foundation for the James Gang, Walsh got the opportunity of a lifetime when opening for The Who on one of their American tours, having already spawned a massive hit with ‘Funk #49’. The world took notice. When Joe Walsh joined the Eagles in December 1975, they were already a well-established band. But then again, he was also a well-established solo star. Something clicked. Walsh helped restructure the Eagles, bringing a gritty rock edge to a group best known for laid-back, country-rock music. His first album with the Eagles, 1976’s Hotel California, became one of the best-selling in history. One of the most notorious partiers in rock n’ roll history (up there with Keith Moon), he let loose until he couldn’t anymore. Thankfully, Walsh is now completely sober and still touring to this day. 1. “In the City” 2. “Rocky Mountain Way” 3. “Life’s Been Good” (ft. Hiram Bullock) 4. “Turn to Stone” Enjoy
