Love Joe Walsh, I'm not sure about that drummer though. Walk away has such a neat little drum beat and this guy did just basic 4/4 beat through the entire song.
@RICHIEV333 It's not the drummer. Joe totally changed up the turn around riff. The drummer had no choice. The cool drum riff went with the cool guitar break that Joe didn't do.
we're all lucky Joe is such a kind, peaceful, funny kinda guy otherwise alsmot none of The Eagles would ever play together again it seems. Joe seems willing to play for just about anyone, even though he deserves the best
Glenn Frey and Joe performed as "Party of 2" and no other Eagles were involved however, Felder heard about it and was not pleased he was again bypassed from performing with the band in some way
Joe was reinventing his amps & guitars in the 60's & 70's himself. Joe doesn't remember alot from those years but when he was partying his ass off he was still very smart & accurate with what he did musically!!!! I read an interview from Guitar Musician magazine, I would say early 70's and he described how he changed his Marshall Amps & guitars to tweek his sound. He is no dummy, just sounds stoned.
@redhead5150 huh? Joe is the way he is, he always talks like that, but he's more funny in later years then the James Gang ones of course, but he did seem to be more amusing during the Barnstorm period
saw this Frey and Walsh in Charlotte in 92 or 93. Frey puked 2 dozen times due to a stomach ulcer or something. Walsh carried the show and played every instrument on the stage. Friggin awesome.
can't remember that part. i was in the front row to the right side of the stage. joe played most of the show standing 10 feet in front of me but all i remember is the great music. he talked to the crowd several times i think.
That's bull. Joe lives or at least relives his heydays right now. His playing is now technically excellent, much more accurate than in the 70's not to mention the 60's!!
Good day to all of my fellow Christians, firstly my apology for being out of topic. I came here to remind you people that the judgment day has started already. Please depart from cursing, smoking, violent entertainment, fornication, occultism, and for watching pornography etc. lest you be found not worthy to enter the kingdom of God in the Day of Execution. Thank you for your kind consideration.
Seems like some of the guys don't know the song. The look on Joe's face on the first chourus says so to me. Interesting version though. I guess I'm more of a purist.
If your dad happens to have a copy of the first Barnstorm album (Joe's first band after The Games Gang), give it a couple of dozen listens, and stop listening to The Jonahs Bros.
Dude first of all it's The Jonas Brothers not Jonah's Brother. Second I love Joe Walsh and I'm pretty Knowledgeable when it comes to music. I'm in no way brainwashed you idiot. Just because I like a certain band that you don't like doesn't mean I know nothing about music. Think before you speak, moron.
This is unbelieveable that some of you guys think that this version sucks when probably it is a better version than the James Gang one. Not that i am going to downgrade the James Gangs version it was the start of a genious song like this. I went to 2 concerts on their LROOE tour 1 in NYC and the other in Hershey PA. When this song started everyone standed and went just as crazy as when he started to play lifes been good. Every eagles song is genious.

You're obviously no genius. If this was the best Joe could do, I'd have written him off a couple of decades ago. Hanging out with soft rockers The Eagles has softened up his brain. His guitar playing hasn't suffered, thank god, but overall, this is really sad.
A sober Uncle Joe, its almost like a Kareoke version of the song with all the backing music..Joe used to blow this song with only ONE guitar..see sometimes Less is more!
Well, truth be told the very best version the great Joe W ever did of "Walk Away" was a live recording, from the album "You cant argue with a sick mind". This 6 song album features no where on youtube as far as I can see. I've mislaid my own vinyl copy. It is a 5 star classic.
"Well, truth be told" it was the worst version he'd done up to that point, then there was the Eagles, but this version may actually be worse. I can't help it, when someone recommends locating a record that's potentially dissappointing, I want to warn people.
Cathoderoy, can you possibly be serious? "You cant argus with a sick mind" is a supERB 6 track live recording from Joe Walsh. Granted, the Version of "Rocky MW" is not the best, but the other five tracks on YCAWASM are STAND out. And it's Walk Away, the Best Walk away of them all.
FUCK YOU MIDNIGHTREVUE you dont have any clue about real music. i bet you play like crap and dont be so arrogant and stupid Henley and Frey made music history and you are a nothing compared to this guys
How many real fans out there have the Yer LP, James Gang Rides Again, Thirds, and Live in Concert('71)? I played them all today as it's drummer Jim Fox;s 61st birthday today 8-24-08!
Hell yes its Joe Walsh! Listened and loved since birth! If only i was older and seen him live younger. But still Joe has got to be one of the best, he puts so much soul in it! Being a guitarist most my life i've tried my hardest to base my playing on The Walsh way. Rock on Joe!
Meh! I'm all for changing it up for live performances, but it's almost an entirely different song, with the chorus morphing to 'In the City'. Got to see Joe perform live back in the 80's, and he rocked the show, but this ... not so much.
hey joe, just because you got older doesn't mean you have to become mellow and lame. break out the les paul, find a new drummer, dump glen frey. the only way this could worse is if don henley was on the drum kit
Who EVER said I don't bow before Jesus? Or that I do? But mostly, from all I know about the guy (and that's actually quite a bit), He wouldn't talk to ANYONE the way you do. But He would forgive you for doing so; and for being a generally intolerant, judgemental asswipe.
AWESOME-BY- NO MEANS!!! wish I wuz there!...can't help but wonder if Joe and Glenn,...are'nt singin abt the same chick here as in the more recent busy-bein-fab hit!
Dude, let the other dude choose his God or god or G-d for himself. Now shut da fuck up and listen to the music - I think we've all had about enough of being told who to worship!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I'll speak what I want and a clown like you won't tell me what to do. Jesus is Lord and you my friend WILL bow before Him one day. Christ died for you and you're what's wrong with this world. Jesus is Lord. Praise His name.
hey kalkman1972, Eagles arent shit. theyre one of the most talented bands. and by the way, Joe Walsh isnt know to be a "powerrocker" anyways...if you want that stuff go listen to Iron Maiden and dont complain
Frey an Walsh do a great job but that drummer just blows it. He just tears it down to the bear minimum. Just a time keeper. Jimmy Vox played as a band member not just a time keeper. Great performance but that drummer is disappointing.
You're kalkman, doesn't quite have the same punch as the original and does sound eagley. That being said I still grin ear to ear when Joe cuts loose. No worries about people docking ya points, you wouldn't have come if you didn't like Joe.
that drummer is Scott Crago who is the Eagles drummer when Henley isn't playing drums. The truth is this is a live JOE WALSH concert not a live EAGLES concert and Joe likes to have fun during his concerts, he doesn't strive for the perfection the Eagles strive for during their concerts.
Did you see the James Gang version? Live but far closer to "perfect" than this. Jimmy Vox is just a better drummer. A musician as opposed to a click track.
