The perfect "waist trimming" pace with the perfectly aligned motivational theme. "You can't keep a good man down." That was years ago of course. Damn. This was so helpful to me that I'm going to put it in the main comment section.

    I remember reading the liner notes on a James Gang best of written by the drummer Jim Fox. He said they supported Cream and The Who in their early days, and they weren't ready for the eccentricity and aggression of British bands. The guitarist Joe Walsh is a pretty colourful guy himself. So entertaining on stage.
    Tommy Bolin replaced Joe Walsh when he left to join The Eagles. The Bolin years were pretty good too.

    I HAVEN'T SHOUTED ON SOCIAL MEDIA IN OVER 20 YEARS, BUT WOW, it just occurred to me how much you guys might like this Deep Purple song, particularly Lex, but I bet you both would really like it.
    It's the finale of that Machine Head album that also had Smoke on the Water on it, for example. Many songs from that album became huge hits and this is what they ended the album with, like it is their big finale to end the record. It let's us directly hear Jon Lord and his mastery over his cantankerous tube-driven Hammond organ and he plays it through a Marshall stack, so he gets some pretty good distortion and it blends well with the guitars..
    He is featured for the drawn-out dramatic intro, and it shows you how much in control of that difficult instrument that he is. And then the band is phenomenal as always. After the intro, it leads with a blazing guitar solo and then the keys play along with guitar lines and then play off of them in other sections, until until he trades solos with is the lead guitar.

    Joe Walsh attended Kent State in Ohio at the time of the National Guard shooting of anti-war protestors on May 4, 1970. He wanted to major in English and minor in music. He said the shootings affected him deeply and he dropped out to pursue music. One day the piano player didn't show up and from then on one of the band members' MOM sat in for him.

    Another good track from Rides Again is Closet Queen,features some great guitar work by Joe Walsh.

    Yep. It sounds familiar because some of the best guitar "hooks" of the Eagles band belong to Joe Walsh himself. Good ears to you both

  • @philwillett9102

    Brad, you are right! It does sound familiar. I think it might be "Jump into the Fire" by Harry Nilsson.....Interestingly, both came out the same year, 1971.

    A song I've heard hundreds of times growing up on the radio but never knew who it was or what the song was called. Didn't even know it was Joe Walsh until I read the comment under mine and recognized his sound immediately, lol.

    Funk #48 is even better! What a groove, the drums sound awesome, and it's just a killer jam. My only gripe with it is that it is too short a song. Check THAT one out for sure.

    Brad you've probably heard that riff in 100 different movies over the years lol.. It's very popular in movies about that time period cause it sets the scene to the 70s.

  • @damonhines8187
    @damonhines8187 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    That riff doesn't exist in a vacuum or time bubble but a continuum. Stuff happened before and after. It mattered to differing degrees. Their 'Walk Away' bears a listen, and 'Bomber/Closet Queen, etc. medley'. ;>D

    Everyone is familiar with funk 49. Great song. A lot of people don’t know about funk 48. I like it a little more. Give it a go.

  • @garymorse7249

    The movie footloose 1984 released borrowed that riff from the James Gang 1971.

    I always heard that line as, "You don't think I'll blow your plan" rather than "...know your plan"
