IT WAS ON THIS DATE IN 1975 JOE WALSH OFFICIALLY JOINED ‘THE EAGLES’.
PRIOR TO JOINING THE EAGLES, WALSH ENJOYED GREAT SUCCESS WITH THE BAND ‘JAMES GANG’ AND SOLO PROJECTS. WALSH ALSO TURNED DOWN A CHANCE TO JOIN ‘HUMBLE PIE’ AS PETER FRAMPTON’S REPLACEMENT.
IN 1975 HE WAS ASKED TO JOIN THE EAGLES TO REPLACE BERNIE LEADON.
HOTEL CALIFORNIA WAS GROUP’S 5TH ALBUM, THE FIRST ALBUM TO FEATURE JOE WALSH. IS THERE ANYTHING BETTER THAN THE DUELING LEADS WITH FREY AND WALSH AT THE END OF HOTEL CALIFORNIA ?
HERE’S WALSH AND THE EAGLES IN CONCERT
HERE’S SOME GREAT SOLO WALSH FEATURING GREAT SLIDE GUITAR AND TALKBOX !!
