What a guitar giant. Its hard to standout in a band like Eagles, they together made great music but as in Eagles, before Eagles Joe made name for himself, he did fantastic guitar playing, great riffs and solos etc. Here he played in style of Jeff Back bolero etc, No wander they opened for Led Zep and a like in the early 70s.Eagles were lucky to have Joe in their ranks.

WOW 2 of his greatest songs ever ! Thank You !

Certainly he's not what he used to be, but considering it's really 40 and 50 years later. I'll take whatever is left in the tank, JOE !!!! Thanks for posting!!! :D

Man, Joe Walsh seems here a sadly diminished iteration of his past stage self.
Where is the loosey goosey fun what used to be his signature.
Needs to pick up the pace or forget about it. So slow and plodding, and the material is just not strong enough to support that kind of take on it.
Maybe ole Joe is just burned out, having done Turn to Stone, the Bomber, etc. ad nauseam through these many many decades.

Credit where due: from about 10:30 on in this video was new stuff and Joe seemed to awaken from slumber. Last 3:30 tolerable - at least the man seemed interested in what he was doing, and somewhat aware of the fact that he was on stage doing a freaking show.
