Walsh doesn't get enough credit. He's one of the greatest guitarists ever. Like Jerry Garcia, he's technically excellent but with exceptional musical feel too.
watch the Seville concert hosted by Brian May. After Nuno B, Steve V. Joe S. and Brian May perform, Brian introduces Walsh as the guitar hero's guitar hero....and then Joe chokes on the beginning of his own song. None of those inferior players did that. He's good but he's also his biggest obstacle.

I was always fascinated with the electric guitar ever since I was 5 years old, but it was Joe Walsh and The James Gang "Rides Again" LP that finally pushed me to sell my Schwinn Sting Ray bike to buy a cheap electric guitar in 1971, the song that pushed me over the edge? , , , "Closet Queen (Bomber Medley)".
I love that album…if like me, you probably also listened to Chicago ll…Steve Miller Band “Your Saving Grace” and, at one time, wanted to be Michael Jackson.
Two things I love about Joe Walsh , the so what album which I still play to this day , and his live performance with the eagles on hotel california , what a guitar duel , one of the best I have ever seen
Watch the documentary on Terry Kath by his daughter. Joe is interviewed quite a bit and talks about trying to figure out how Kath could possibly play what he was hearing. For me Kath is the standard all rock guitarist try to achieve.
I had a tiny image of Joe taped to the side of the neck of my Silvertone guitar and feverishly learned Clapton licks. Joe is still my go to calming influence.
In the Eagles' "Hell Freezes Over" concert, and the album that followed, both Walsh and Don Felder really showed their stuff. For Felder, "Hotel California" and "Get Over It" showcased his solo talents.
Good 'ol Joe - rockin' us awake and asleep for 60 years or so now... Always loved his inventiveness - the unique feel he had in crafting a riff, a lead solo, an entire song and album. James Gang - Rides Again! Look at Jimmy Fox banging away on that kit in trance-like bliss in that last clip... Thanks for this - it's beautifu!
I saw the Eagles perform at Soldier Field in Chicago back when Glenn Frey was with us. Honestly, the concert wasn't so great until Joe Walsh started blowing our minds. Joe was all over the place musically. You never really knew where he was going when he started jamming. I turned to my wife and said "Now you know why I'm such a fan of Walsh". She had to agree that he made the show great. Thank goodness Joe got his life back on track. It will be a huge loss when he goes to play in the 'Great Gig in the Sky'.
I only saw Joe Walsh once around 1982 opening for Stevie Nicks. Great show. They mention Ritchie Blackmore as an influence, it was hard to imagine during his Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow days they were an opening act. Saw them open for BOC in '79 at a small general admission venue maybe 3500 capacity. Saw him later with a rejuvenated Rainbow headline with the Scorpions and Riot opening.
Joe Walsh said in an interview when the James Gang dwindled down to a 3 piece he had to take on the duty of lead vocals while being obviously the lead guitarist. He gives Pete Townsend credit for helping him with the change. This is a cool clip because it involves Joe Walsh who I love. But everyone is right on these comments.... It talks about all these other guitarist...not just his favorite three...in detail like it's a video breaking them down instead of Joe.
Guys like Joe Walsh are legendary when you can recognize their work in songs like Richard Marx’s “Don’t Mean Nothing” and Wilson Phillips “Impulsive” his guitar made those songs massive hits.
One person who he could never figure out how to get the sound was Terry Kath, he said he could never figure out how he got that sound out his guitar !!!
Nope. Page, Allman, Les Paul, Hendrix, BB King, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Clapton, Beck, Blackmore, Ronnie Wood, Townsend, Manfred Mann - there are 13 names called out in this video of "Three Favorite". Yet Joe never names his three.
Joe is a great musician IMHO. Joe is also "a nice guy and pretty good at Morse Code too" according to my grandpa who used to chat with Joe on Ham radio in the 1970s. One of a kind!
Joe Walsh has some of the funkiest and prettiest songs I've ever heard going back to the James Gang then to his Barnstorm album and The Smoker you Drink the Player You Get is a phenomenal album and very moody! Love his music!
Duane also taught Gary Rossington to play slide, thus inadvertently leading to the creation of one of the greatest songs ever. The guy was literally everywhere back then.
Joe was great friends with the late Tommy Bolin,they hung out alot in Boulder. Joe got Tommy the job with The James Gang.Joe said Tommy was way better Guitar player then he was! Joe was a palbearer at Tommy's funeral
From my personal, not a musician listening ears I have recently re-introduced myself to Deep Purple so I was quite pleased to hear Ritchie Blackmore mentioned. Also, I just watched Jeff Beck's homage concert to Les Paul DVD (for the 3rd time in the past 2 years) so that sure makes sense Joe Walsh is highly inspired by the innovative Paul, too. Good video by Studio Number Six Postscript: I was wondering if "Joe would mention" (nudge nudge wink wink) the guitarist who left the James Gang opening the door for Joe Walsh to become a member: Glenn Schwartz. Schwartz could be one of the most underrated guitarists (and wildly, religiously eccentric) to ever play in rocknroll bands. Schwartz also played in the band Pacific Gas & Electric as well as Jesus Freaks (to be honest don't know a song by the Freaks). Probably more than a rumor Walsh was tutored early on by Schwartz pre James Gang.
i love joe's playing, i know they're totally different, but I liken him to the Late Paul Kossoff, who played with his heart and soul, not just his hands.
"Post Toastee" reminds me of Joe in some ways... "Must Be Love" of the James Gang "Bang" album is also a great example of Tommy's ability to groove like Joe...
What I don’t get is Allman, Walsh and Felder never make GOAT top 20 lists. They’re all on mine. I saw a top 100 list here on YT recently and they weren’t on it.
🖕🏾 those lists. Don't need anyone telling me what is good. Music is like women. You can't help what makes your toe tap! Some like blondes, some like brunettes. Some skinny, some fat. Some white, some brown.. It's art. Picasso was famous, but I'm not a fan. I like Norman Rockwell.
All those lists have nothing to do with great guitar playing at all, for example Kurt Cobain is in most lists, he never ever played real guitar solo, here and there he played some melody on the guitar, these lists have more to do with famous guitar players who play guitar in famous bands, so you'll find on those lists some really great guitar players and some lousy guitar players in the form of Kurt Cobain who did with Nirvana only one great album in all his career, the album is Nevermind who sold like 30 million albums worldwide making the album the best selling album of the grunge era and by that making Nirvana famous and Kurt Cobain famous, he was a lousy guitar player but he wrote very simple and catchy songs, you can ask people who make these lists of GOAT guitarists or Goat vocalists, it's always the same, it's all about famous names, most of these lists are ridiculous and are considered as a bad joke, take it easy and stop relating to those silly lists, no one on earth can say for sure who is the best guitar players of all times!!!
@@SEKreiver BTW, in case you are unaware, Page has now got his Black Beauty back. In this clip the chap says Page set the guitar down on stage and that was the last he saw of it.

I clicked this just to see if Joe Walsh acknowledged Don Felder. I'm disappointed that he didn't. Just think of what it would've meant to Don Felder, if Joe Walsh had named him as one of his favorites.
There's one guitarist who was also a very big influence on Joe Walsh yet isn't mentioned here & bet Joe would even tell the same thing himself. Who's name is "Glenn Schwartz." R.I.P. my friend. Just saying... Let's keep it a buck ya dig?
Walsh has something undefinable that most even really good guitarists don't have. Always thought him going w/ the Eagles was a terrible waste of his potential and talent.
What I really want to know is Joe's favorite 3 1/2 Bass players and 7 3/4 drummers. Oh and his favorite 9 flavors of ice cream. These are things I must know.
I'll say... All of Joe's picks are the best of the best. My hat's off to you Joe. By the way Joe, wish you would've run for President. All of the Boomers, including myself would have got you in!
Interesting that in one band you had the talent of Don Henley who was into aggrandizement of his own greatness to the point of taking himself too seriously and being an a-hole…and Joe Walsh who was great in his own right, but keeping a sense of humour and self-deprecation that never came across as a ego trip.
His sound instantly recognizable???? nah i don't think so. 😂😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣 Silly storys. Walsh is a good player & i like a few of his tunes and....thats all folks.
As noted already, George learned slide from Delaney Bramlett, likely when George joined the Delaney & Bonnie tour group for dates in the UK and Europe. It was Harrison who turned Clapton onto that band when Eric was looking for an opener for the Blind Faith tour. Bramlett was also responsible for kick starting Clapton's solo career, by convincing him to step up as a singer and do his own thing. Clapton's debut solo album is essentially a D&B album with Eric singing. And, of course, Derek & the Dominos was the rhythm section from D&B's band.
Page and "improvisational flair" do not go together 🤣 Give him six months in a studio and he'll come up with something good, but put him on a stage .. ask him to pull magic out of thin air and he'll tank. Jimi and Rory could do it ... but Page .. not a chance.
There is no top guitarist 'better' than any other: they are all on the same plane of greatness. Picking a ranking list is beyond puerile, not to mention childish.
SO many over-rated guitar players in history.. Bar the master Jeff Beck, have been put to sleep by most of them... First, we have the boring Pentatonic hacks, Clapton and Page..Also, Hendricks' sloppy rubbish was adored by FAR too many Sheeple.. If he wasn't of colour.. No one would have looked sideways at him.. Give me Gilmour and Knopfler ANY day of the week.

That’s a tough one,….but I’d say Stevie Ray Vaughan, Carlos Santana and Jimi Page.
A guitar player who was a huge influence on so many others was Sister Rosetta Tharpe.
Walsh gifted Page his first Les Paul. He was playing a telecaster before that thus the change of sound between Led Zeppelin 1 and 2.
I thought it was AFTER Page's Black Beauty was stolen. THEN Joe gave Jimmy what became "No.1". Cool either way.
He didn't give it to Page, he sold it. Insisted, as Page recalls. Good call though. First used at the Fillmore West April 27, 1969

Where did George pick up slide?
from Delaney Bramlett but before that he was under Ravi's influence. I hear alot of sitar riffs in GH playing.
As noted already, George learned slide from Delaney Bramlett, likely when George joined the Delaney & Bonnie tour group for dates in the UK and Europe.
It was Harrison who turned Clapton onto that band when Eric was looking for an opener for the Blind Faith tour.
