Talk:Joe Walsh

message: Didn't Joe Walsh and Barmstorm tour with Humble Pie in the 1970's?
C'mon guys, I know there's alot more information to put on here. Stuff like how he entered rehab after appearing in the Howard Stern Show and, oh, I don't know, WHEN HE RAN FOR PRESIDENT!?!?!?
There is an early 90s Howard Stern clip of Billy West mocking Joe Walsh.  It came to discussion that he had been ordered by the Eagles to stop drinking and what not, and rehab had forbade him from hanging out with old friends that encouraged that behavior.
Apparently, that meant he would never appear on the Stern show again.  They renamed him Stepford Joe Walsh

message: Can someone make it clear for us was that Sunburst Les Paul Joe Walsh's main guitar? or was it only Walsh's guitar and he gave it to Page and then it was specialized by Page?
bottom line: That Les Paul was special to Page or to Walsh? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Punkruptcy (talk • contribs) 09:58, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: About Jimmy Page's Guitar

message: "Walsh gave Pete Townshend (guitarist/songwriter for The Who) the guitar he used on Who's Next. In return, Townshend gave Walsh his first Synthesiser." Shouldnt it be the other way around? this makes no sense. --Krautukie 02:18, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Walsh had a habit of giving away guitars as gifts. He had not experimented with any type of synthesiser prior to giving a guitar to Townshend. Townshend, who had been experimenting with a Moog for quite a while, reciprocated Walsh's gift by giving him a synthesiser... since Walsh had never used one previously. What "makes no sense" about that?... except that it falls on this talk page underneath a topic header about Page's guitar and has nothing to do with Townshend. 202.160.48.156 02:44, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

message: I removed banjo from his instrument list. Walsh is not a banjo player, never has been.
Nor has he recorded any notable banjo playing (he did replace Bernie Leadon in Eagles, but Bernie's live banjo duties were transferred to Don Felder in order to keep Midnight Flyer on the Hote California tour setlist)
Also why is there a link to Free Bird (the Lynyrd Skynyrd song) under the section
"solo". I don't remember Joe Walsh playing with Skynyrd, is this a joke of some kind?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eaglesfan8881 (talk • contribs) 09:55, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

message: This article calls the James Gang, "commercially successful", yet the article James Gang says "the band was not a huge commercial success". I'm not sure that any quibbles about "huge" are quite enough to resolve this contradiction. 81.159.106.144 (talk) 00:45, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

message: I believe that the montage of the Eagles from their Long Road Out of Eden Tour should be featured on the article. It is featured on the article for the Eagles, the Eagles discography, Timothy B. Schmit, etc. If anybody wants to talk to me about this, please leave a message on my talk page.

message: The Album is listed as [Walsh and Barnstorm] - but it is really his first solo album. The album has his name prominently featured on the cover and at the time, it was considered a "Joe Walsh album".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jeffmaslan (talk • contribs) 03:30, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

message: "The guitar solo on the track Hotel California by Walsh and Don Felder[4] was, in 1998 by Guitarist magazine, "

message: Isn't it peculiar that there are six paragraphs of general Eagles info here on the Joe Walsh page about the album Hotel California, but no mention of the fact that Joe Walsh wrote and sang the song "Pretty Maids All in a Row" on that album? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.89.36.147 (talk) 04:29, 28 June 2015 (UTC)

message: Currently it says he was there - "Walsh has also stated he was present during the Kent State massacre in 1970." It also says "After high school, Walsh briefly attended Kent State University . . ."  He was born November 1947 so he probably graduated HS 1965 or 1966.  Of course he could have been back at Kent for a visit; or his brief time there might have been a few years after he graduated HS.  As it is the timeline does not make a lot of sense or at least could use a little explanation. Cross Reference (talk) 19:28, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
