- "Rocky Mountain Way" is a 1973 song by rock guitarist Joe Walsh and his band Barnstorm, with writing credits given to Walsh, Rocke Grace, Kenny Passarelli, and Joe Vitale. The song was originally released on the album The Smoker You Drink, The Player You Get.
I don't always listen to Rocky Mountain Way, but when I do, so do my neighbors! Believe that.
Ha ha ha .. YOU BET!!!❤
I've blown out my passenger side window listening to this song back in the early 90s. At least that's what my wife said. Rock On!
😂❤ same here !!
Anyone know where a person can pick up a replica of the shirt that Joe’s wearing in this video? I’m really diggin’ it immensely!
That’s comedy baby 😂
Man, we had the BEST music in the 70's ... love Joe Walsh
We really did the seventies were the best decade for music, concerts, girls, God!!
I have NO complaints!
Joe Walsh is a national treasure and a credit to American guitarists everywhere......
a genius who can make a guitar sound any damn way he wants, and i'm in awe and damn jealous
ANYTHING JOE🤣
Underrated guitarist. Underrated comment
@@LaidbackChristianLifestyle and now you're jealous,and who do you play with,yourself
Joe Walsh is a legend
A bit of history: Joe had a daughter, Emma Kristen Walsh, who was a passenger in a car in which her mother, Stefany Rhodes, was driving. It was April 1, 1974 in Boulder, Colorado. The vehicle was a Porche. Even though Emily was in a car seat, she was killed. Stefany survived. A driver ran a stop sign, crashing into the passenger side of the Walshes' green Porsche. The impact caused the Walsh car to spin around and hit a fence across the street. Emma, less than a month away from turning 3 years old, sustained head injuries from the accident and was taken off life support late that night....I've never heard Joe speak of it. The song 'Help Me Through the Night' from Joe Walsh's 'So What' album (1974) is about that loss. The Eagles do a superb job with this on the Hell Freezez Over DVD...RIP, Emily...God bless you, Joe.
So Sad... Joe W. Is Great...
@@johnmartino2691 Agreed!
SO SAD, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT
@@DavidMiller-yn1ig Yep, David. I don't listen to this song the same way anymore. You can tell how much Joe loved his daughter in this song and how grateful he was to have a special friend to help him get thru it.
Never heard that before. Very sad.
Walsh Felder… Can’t get any better than that…
64 and still rockin. Who's here in 2021?
fuck yeah Katrina.. I love listening to Joe he's music is the best chill music
Still here and still rocking at 63.
Yeah, 63 here in 2021 and still rocking.
66 and STILL LOVING Joe!
Even with arthritis!
64 and loving it
It’s cool his buddy Don Felder came to back him up
I'm lovin' this. Who's here in 2020????
Saw them in St Pete Florida when I was going to the University of Tampa. In 77. Chasing a girl named Sandy King. I hope she's well.
Me

Budgy good shit aaay😋😁
Yupper.
When Joe plays, you know it's him. That's genius.
And with Don Felder of the Eagles even back then! 💖
I’ve listened to him for years (including when this was a recent release) but it hasn’t occurred to me until recently just how good he is. He just always sounds great, both in terms of timbre and note choice.
Agree!
When Joe plays.....everyone listens!
There’s a tad more than a handful of guitarists where all you need to do is listen and you can tell who they are. I always considered Joe a sleeze guitarist, in a good sense. His notes still are gut grabbing.
Surprised to see Don Felder in this video, no wonder he became an Eagle! Great Song
I heard an interview with Joe. He said there were tours and concerts he had no recollection doing. He said, "I know I was there 'cause I've got the poster!". Glad you made it to the other side, Joe.
Don Felder playing with him. Joe Walsh is definitely an American treasure.
Soooo right!!!
Yes as I stated above I think this was him live album taping
Glen Frey on keyboards, too.
He made the Eagles come to life as good as they already were
@@philmccartney3214 Not Glen...that's Jay Ferguson on piano, and David Mason on organ. ☺
drunk or sober, the MAN can play
1975? Ish… saw this at age 15. Went out and bought a guitar. Been playing ever since.
Cool to see felder jamming with him

Underrated by whom?
@@sjefhendrickx2257 what I say underrated I mean they didn't get talked about as much in the media etc.
Underrated???? Dude's a legend!
Look at Joe's history. One of the best rockers, ever. Through drugs and rehab. Incredible talent.
He has had a time!
I love Joe so much 😊❤️🇦🇺
I just turned "80" and love him as much today as then 🎶💋❣️

Joe was a wild man...
I can't believe our parents generation rocked harder than us.
We still are buddy
Hell yea. I don’t even cut the radio on these days bc all the music is junk. I spin my records and cds crank my plexis and the gold top sing. Thank god for the greats
Oh yeah and I’m 70 in February and rediscovering the music I’d groove to in the 70’s😊🇦🇺
We have never stopped, 61 and can hang longer than the younger generation anyday. Party, play guitar and harmonica and getting wiser!!!
Damn right we did. 65 now and I am still jamming out
Joes a monster
Another song that was on the verge of being overplayed on the radio but has stood the test of time and still has the "MAGIC" !
Still has the MAGA. 🇺🇸
Awsome .
Thanks for supporting my music, I’m so grateful and I hope you never stop being a fan, I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information💜💜
This couldn't be overplayed. Joe's slide playing never gets old.
"On the verge ... " Hahahaha! Yeah, name one "classic rock" song that hasn't been overplayed by so-called "classic rock radio".
Kirshner's at bat! Who else grew up watching Don Kirshner's Rock Concert & The Midnight Special! The best music! Muscle cars, cheap gas, no "smart" phones, & the girls were real!
That was the greatest time ever to be a teenager!!!
Yeah the 70's were supposedly a hangover from the 60's but for kids it was absolutely great.
Me.
I NEVER tire of this song - and this version rocks!
One of the greatest performances ever by anyone anywhere.
The james gang
PHILLY SPECTRUN.. 1973... WITH.... SANTANA.. JOHN DAWSON WINTER... WOW... GREAT SHOW
They tore UP at Day on the Greens in the early '70s in the Oakland Coliseum !!!
I'm so thankful to have lived the seventies music, in concert after concert!
Thanks for supporting my music, I’m so grateful and I hope you never stop being a fan, I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information💜💜
Joe should be in the R&R Hall of Fame is anyone is there!
Fuck, they just need to rename it;
The Joe Walsh Hall of Fame!
Who gives a shit about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? It’s a fucking joke that has lost all credibility.
R&R Hall of Shame is just as worthless as the FDA!
YOU GOT THAT RIGHT HE IS THE BEST!!!!
Fuck the Hall, they shit on so many great artists!
Joe Walsh and Don Felder, so great together, feeding off each other, dynamic team.👍
And then a mater of money
thought that was Don

Holy hell I knew that was Felder. I kept trying to stop/start the video to tell for sure haha.
There. Art, l. Love it 😊❤🎉
Back in the 70s we used to spend most of our time driving around from place to place, listening to the radio, endlessly. This song takes me back to those days.
Woohoo we lived alright!
Driving around drinking beer listen to rock and roll miss it good old day's world sucks now
One of the greatest sobriety comebacks of all time. Love James Gang!
You know it man... and like many of us Friends of Bill, he passed it on! So much love and respect for Joe. A total mensch.

Joe opened for Bad Company at Red Rocks a few years back. He was great. Paul Rodgers too.
Best kept secret of all times. When life was uncomplicated and we enjoyed our lives. Good by to the good days.
Saw him in ‘75 in London, - I’d give anything for a time machine, those really were the good old days.
Amen to that my friend !
Yep! When boys were boys and girls were girls!
@@kklima327 AMEN to that!
They were outstanding days and people didn’t have their heads up their ass.
I've been listening since I was 12 years old I'm 56 now it never gets old rock on Joe Walsh
Me too, but since 11 & I'm 55 love his music ♥️
I also....very young listening to the JAMES GANG....will be 67 in Oct.
the theme song of my high school graduation was Joe Walsh's "Life's been good"
Write me the best 12 bar blues song ya can. Well this is it !!
Joe Walsh - one of the greatest guitarists - such talent to write songs like this - WOW!
Joe Walsh, still one of the best guitarist out there
The best!
amen, brother bear.
The player behind him is another great guitarist. Just wish he could have gotten along with that rat bastard Glen Frye.
OH HELL YES ! The album-live-"You Can't Argue With A Sick Mind". What an absolute gem ! Intro track-"Walk Away"-kicks in-in the teeth !
Saw him in concert at Notre Dame 1975 with JoJo Gunn. Awesome!
I saw Joe at Sedalia Music Festival, 1974 before he joined the Eagles.
I love to hear a man that can make a guitar talk with or without a talk box. Guitar God
Hell yeah!!!
I've got to buy me a talk box because I love it when Frampton does that and Joe Walsh
I love to make it talk
Very nice Cynthia 😀
You would had loved my house.
Nothing beats Felder and Walsh duo💪.
Back when he and Don were friends!
Mr. Joe Walsh
When I was a long-haul trucker back in the 70s, "The Smoker You Drink, the Player You Get" was an 8-track that was constantly spinning in the old tape deck.
And Don Felder backing him. Hell of a duo.
Love this playlist. And I was there first time around. 72 yrs old and still rockin. Yeah, granny’s rocking in her rocking chair
You keep rocking young lady!
Keep rockn babe !

Thanks for your love and support ♥️❤️
How is Joe not in the rock hall of fame as a solo artist? and yet they inducted janet jackson this year??!!!
racer111259 Because in reality, it’s the rock ‘n’ roll hall of politics
Because they are a bunch of tools! It’s the rock and pop hall of shame
He, and many others. But I don’t know why any would want to be remembered in the place as MaDonna.
That sucks!!
I suppose the same reason Grand Funk Railroad isn't either. Stupidity
man i have to listen to this onece a week.
he sure is and only way to get the most of this song is to play it loud,,, miss u sean strong and ur el camino
Joe Walsh is a freaking genius! Enjoy him while we can. I hope Joe lives to be 105 years old.
Isn't he that already...lol

He might live that long since we both got sober.

@@joewalsh275 How would I go about getting that? Thank you, Joe. ❤
Joe Walsh is a great rocker. As much as he may have been viewed as a loose crazy rocker back in the day- Joe Walsh-as a singer/songwriter/guitar player-is a tight, seamless, polished musician. This is a great version and performance of Rocky Mountain Way.
Ed Rekers all the greats, are on record..Clapton, Page, Richards... all pay him high praise
Dude, the Smoker You Drink, the Player You Get!
I love the older tunes for sure. The music is highly addictive. Especially when I'm working out.
Saw him live with Barnstorm at Winterland in San Francisco back in the day. Joe Walsh blew me away as a GREAT guitar player. He didn't play fast, but he had this smoothness and melodic sense in his solos. I saw that also in Jeff Beck. It's something a great musician has regardless of their instrument. He had The Touch. That's why all the greats give him high praise.
Who does a critique? Listen.
So glad he sobered up so we didn't lose him.

Ive recently discovered Joe at 38yrs old and a casual eagles fan all my life, im now obsessed! I thought what i discovered lynyrd skynyrd and RVZ i was obsessed but this is even more! Im from Scotland and wanted to see the eagles in Edinburgh but no one would go with me , if it was now id be going alone! Im thinking of flying over to USA to see them
2023 spent the last year Rocky Mountain way. Master of the “Talk Box”.
Can't get enough of Joe Walsh and Barnstorm. He plays some cool riffs, and his group gets the nod.
Absolute legend.
You can’t argue with a sick mind...

Actually, this is an HONOR for us- and we are Grateful!
Just like your song;
"It's all being part of a FAMILY "!
Nobody ever talks about the Barnstorm days better than all
To listen to this music when you where a rocking fourteen years old Girl was phenomenal! To listen to it now, is eternal!!
Amen
Yep..I was 12..a pivotal time in my life..
Bless you...baby.
Your comment made my day thanks love have a great one everyone !!!

Joe Walsh, you are a fighter.....
Survive many hits to your heart ...
Smokin' hot. He gives it everything.
I STILL have 'The Smoker you Drink, the Player you get vinyl from 1973, my high school days....
NO ONE finesses the electric slide guitar like the man, a true ORIGINAL!!! 🤯🙌🏽🎸🎶🔥🔥👑
Joe`s facial expressions are one of a kind!!! God damn the man is King!!
Kent state Boy
Kent State guy all the way..

@@joewalsh275 sure. I was just doing some pour painting and my brother-in-law was helping me out w/the music. He know what kind I listen to. We were do this via text, Rocky Mountain Way was next, that pour was the best one I did that night. Those were really good days. Some of the best times I had. Wouldn't trade them for anything!
Thanks for your love and support ♥️❤️
Joe is one of the greats. Thank God he made it thru the drugs
One of the greatist rock artists ever. A slide master. Most definitely at minute 2:30. Oh gosh. And the talk box. That era can't be replaced.
Thank (GOD) for cell phones, You-T and head sets, I'm 69 years it's three o'clock in the A.M. living in the assistant living home, have the volume all the way up and still "TRIPPING" to this GENIUS and his music.
Millenials have no clue who these great bands are because that's all I listen to during the 60s and 70s. Even went to original Woodstock because it was 4 miles from home and I was 13. Unbelievable times and my age was the last for the Viet Nam draft. Lucky I was 271.
Lucky you. The 4 miles and the sweet 271. I was a 226 which was still very good. 175 was reputed to be worrisome. I would have loved to have seen Alvin Lee doing "Going Home." Oh yeah, and Canned Heat, The Airplane (Grace was so hot!) and Joe Cocker and .....
WHO REMEMBERS THE JAMES GANG ? WHERE JOE WALSH WAS BEFORE HE WENT SOLO, AND THEN TO THE EGLES. HE IS AN AMAZING ARTIST !!!!!
Jeez, we remember, stop screaming.
Remember James Gang well!!! He was fabulous then abs just got greater every year!! 💙
@@jasoneverett 🤣🤣🤣
This is the joe Walsh that I remember.
Love the Hammond!
GENIUSE !!!!UP THERE WITH THE V BEST GOD BLESS Joe g
I was lucky one Monday evening in 1973 to have a beer with Joe at the inner bar at the Flying Dutchman, Charleston S.C... There were only a dozen of us on a dead Monday night having beers. I drove there in my '57 Bel-air out of boredom. The band walked in from a corner door, across a darkened venue for a closed door session. Joe was larger than life then, and for sure now.
What a great memory
Wow...I mean WOW!!! Awesome👍🏻☮️❤️👍🏻🤘🏻
That’s awesome! I used to go there when we lived in Goose Creek, SC 89 Hurricane Hugo greeted us.
Awesome. spent a little time like that.
Joe Walsh is a very nice man!!! Smart, funny, the whole energy package.
That was REAL music... all we have today is noise! To say the least!!!

2022 and I'm only 30 yrs old lol love this stuff
Heard him say once "If I knew I would have to play this song the rest of my life, I would have wrote a different song", or something to that effect.
LOL that sounds like Joe.
Im 61... still sounds fresh... even 20 year olds tell me this is great and that modern music reeks.
There is no music any more, just pop shit and mumble rap.
@@ZepG Agreed!
Real music what the hell happened to the music industry since then .????
the 80s and the rise of electronics and the manufactured pop groups
I see rock and roll don't De-scriminate either. Jam on fellas.👍👍👍👍👍
I only seen joe play in asbuarypark new jersey once . It's a life time to remember . Thanks joe
Joe Vitale on drums, Willie Weeks on bass, and Jay Ferguson on piano
Willie Weeks professional and awesome
Kool & Joe plays lead on Thunder Island by Ferguson - fun to hear all the collaborations!
I see Joe Vitale on drums ( co -writer original drummer on Rcky Mtn Way and in lock step with Joe W great dynamics) , Jay Ferguson on Keyboards, Don Felder playing simple Rythum guitar , Willie Weeks on Bass . This showcases Joe Walsh's terrific melodic mind as he obviously ad libs alot of these licks , great improvisation and the sounds he gets tells you is a true connoisseur of sound. Can't wait till these guys get together again.
I wish the full credits were listed. The whole band deserves credit.
I absolutely love this song and Joe playing it. He's probably the only one that can!
Thanks for supporting my music, I’m so grateful and I hope you never stop being a fan, I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information.💜❤️💜❤️
Thanks Joe. Loved you then. Love you now. Such talent. Sad to hear of your loss. Life can be so cruel!
This song is for Louie pellegrini!!!!🍺🤘I'm John rufo, and I'm proud me and Louie saw Joe at the Cape cod melody tent!!!!!!🤘🍺I love Louie pellegrini!!!!!
I was 14 when I hear this on the radio back in the day, killer song.
I'm here 😁 from Tyler Texas praying fasting, singing listening to music and getting through the days and weeks grateful to be alive still. Thankful for TH-cam videos.
You poor girl. I spent 3 weeks in Tyler, Tx about 10 years ago. It was a dry county then, but we met a guy who hooked us up with a couple pounds of good Mex at a good price. We will all get through this together by "praying fasting, singing listening to music and getting through the days and weeks grateful to be alive still". Merry Christmas!
That's bad ass 😊🎉
I remember listening to this song in the 70's n still do
Joe Walsh, All American
I'm an old lady almost 60 years old. And he is still one of the most handsome man I've ever seen!! 🌹
Thanks for your love and support ♥️❤️
Not at all old! Yes, he has a very distinguished look about him! A true star!
in all my 70 years, I must say , overall, Life's been good to

Man I'm 63 . I do feel the same.I love this site ,'cause I can bring back all the pearls from the past...things just like...(movies,photos,music,cartons & so on).Too bad that today's people will never be able in the future,to rescue history....as we do.
Next month they won't remember the things they love today.
@@Pantibiblon
Yep, true as the sun rises in the east. I have been to the Rockies several times. Always an adventure and now with legal weed....
KEN SOLCH I’m 68, drove cross country in 1984. Two weeks Cleveland to San Francisco, took the long way around. Fabulous trip! When America was still America....
This generation just don't understand the real gift of music my generation grew up on. We lived for our music & lived out the music. I'm 61 and miss this music and my teenage years tremendously. I made sure my children listened to my music ahead of anything else. No comparison with the 70's music anywhere in the world. Can't be replicated or replaced. I get chills listening to this. Thanks to all these musicians...Godspeed
