Joe Walsh 2012 Summer Tour all James Gang

[myvinyl333]

Joe Walsh brought his Analog Man tour to The Riverside Golf Resort and Casino in Riverside, Iowa July 14, 2012, in the midst of a very hot Iowa evening. My personal highlight of the show was "The Bomber" from James Gang Rides Again, released in 1970. Joe addressed the young people in the audience by stating that if they knew the song they must have heard it from their parents, which he apologized for by saying "It is my fault."

Although he played his part, and played it well, I always thought he was a misfit for the Eagles.

Especially as a Don Felder replacement. The drug flavored era of the Eagles seemed to fuel Joe with his signature riffs. Joe played 3 Eagles tunes in his 90 minute set. Sober Joe is having a blast and IMO playing the best I have heard.

Joe brought out the big guns on that record with a who's who of studio people. Barnstorm was Joe's MANASAS which was basically a trio. Then he has some forgettable moments

What I meant was that IMO, Joe's talent eclipsed the band. I much prefer the rest of his catalogue than that period.

There is no question that he was a on a much higher plane musically than his band mates in the Eagles. To me he did not really ever fit. He was supposed to fill Don's shoes. He did that and much more. Somewhere there is a typical Joe quote about replacing Don...

I think James Gang's Yer' Album was much overlooked, at least around my parts. Man, can that white boy play a guitar.
