Anyone here a Joe Walsh Fan?
He ain't country, but he's a hell of a Tele player. Used a Tele for Funk #49, Walk Away, Hotel California, and many more. He turned country and blues licks into Rock & Roll.

I didn't realize that you had to be a country player to play a Tele.
I like quite a few of his songs, but he hasn't made an album that I really like. I love his slide style, but he certainly wasn't the only one to turn country and blues licks into rock and roll. Mick Taylor was as responsible for that sound as anyone.

Hey man, I was not trying to start a debate, or credit Joe with all things R&R. Most of the discussions here are country music themed, so I was pointing out the obvious difference.

If you don't like him, fine...click on another thread and rain on someone else's parade.


Geeze.....

I didn't even realize how I liked his style til I noticed how many Walsh songs I was playing. It kinda snuck up on me lol. I like his slide stuff and funk 49 is awesome.

His fashion style lol... Not so much

I learned how to play Funk #49 a few months back. That is a fun tune to play!

I like a lot of his stuff.
I don't like all of anybodys stuff so the fact that I like a lot of his is saying a lot.

No, I'm sorry Kelnet.

We've taken an informal vote and you need to turn in your TDPRI card by the end of the day

But that will leave an empty slot in my wallet, and that's just not right.

In the meantime, I'm going to try and find all of these country-themed discussions that apparently make up most of the threads around here.

I kind of came of age around the James Gang era. I think Midnight Man is one of my favorite tunes. Plenty of others though.

But then I'll have nowhere to keep my Justice League of America membership card. This is just not working out at all today.

I'd call Joe's playing "tasteful". IMHO, he never overplays a part. In fact, his avant garde personality seems to be indicative of his playing. He added a lot of glue to the Eagles tunes he played on and his use of "in-between" notes make a song sound quite different if you remove them from the mix. In his solo work, his use of overdubs reflected a healthy appreciation of what Jimmy Page was trying to accomplish with Zep. A texture here, a texture there. All together...a really robust sound.
