“I can’t complain, but sometimes I still do.” I steal this quote all the time
“Uh oh, here comes a flock of Wa-Was”
So awesome getting to hear this song live at an Eagles concert a few years back.
This song has so many distinct changes, it could've been broken up into at least three great songs.
Love this live version with Daryl Hall - https://youtu.be/nNPWVi0sHac
Is that Dale Earnhardt on the cover?
Fun Fact: The backing band to this song is basically the Eagles.
That perfect road trip song
My favorite Joe Walsh story:
Born in Wichita, Kan., Walsh first started playing guitar in rock bands at Ohio's Kent State University in the late '60s. There's a story about his early prodigiousness: When he heard the Beatles' "And Your Bird Can Sing," which contains a ridiculously finger-stretching George Harrison guitar solo, Walsh worked tirelessly until he mastered it. Years later, after he became famous, Walsh met Starr (who plays on his new album) and told him the story. Starr looked at Walsh like he was nuts. Harrison had played two guitar parts separately and tracked them on top of each other in the studio.
"Nah, nah, nah — he played it twice," Starr told Walsh. "It's two notes playing together!"
"I think I'm the only guy who can play it — including George," Walsh says
