Joe Walsh [Turns total To Stone] Vintage Live Footage 1972

[@sugarbabygirl22]

This version is so bad ass. I watch it at least twice a day. So much talent ❤

[@JeffreyGlover65]

Yesss! One of my all time favorite live performances! 😎

[@DanC-go9lc]

Saw Joe Walsh with the James gang in 1970 at Ludlow Garage in Cincy. He opened on stage alone and did about a 5 minute echo-plex improv solo thing (a precursor to that break around 2:40 here). Must have been pretty effin' good -- it's now over 53 years later and I still remember it very well. 🤣 And that was just the intro to the real show. ! Kudos to Jim Tarbell for finding some of the greatest musicians in the world at that time and bringing them to a garage !!

[@frankkolton1780]

Look kids, they're playing their own instruments without the many benefits such as compression, volume and feedback control, and audio balance that digital processing gives. Joe is singing without lip synching, background vocal track, or auto tune program. If singers were to do something like that back then, they would of been booed off the stage.

[@pamjarrett-s9s]

Exactly! …and it sounded amazing!

[@charleshill5093]

You got it 100% right this s*** rocks nothing can take the place of talent not Auto-Tune not any of the other bad things however Joe did use a compression pedal but Joe knows how to work that pedal 👍😸

[@alisaparnell-fl8sj]

Thank you. U so ritr

[@kristopherloviska9042]

I remember when ELO was eviscerated for lip synching during a concert in 1978. Now kids go to shows to see DJs twiddle a couple of knobs and slide a few faders up and down and they call it a "concert".

[@ogrebattle22763]

An Absolute KILLER version.... just blows me away everytime I watch it...

[@hundenstihl]

Dude, yes

[@mnbv990]

agreed.

[@barbaravanwhy4564]

I love when the artist become one with their instruments

[@rsuman]

but he doesn't like Gibson guitars and he never played the Les Paul before , no just kidding it's simply Joe Walsh doing what he does the best, killing it.

[@benyoung552]

Man that drummers ripping it up right with Joe…. What a straight up sick ass version… Woah 🤯

[@davidcammilleri5526]

This is the essence of killer live music. Amazing guitar. Everything is being played live. Such a talent. So underrated.

[@UptheStairs2]

Joe has never been underrated.

[@mikemace9644]

He's been a guitar god forever. He even gave Jimmi Paige his #1 Les Paul that he used on Led Zeppelin 2

[@thomaswilliams8167]

Joe never needed the Eagles!!

[@donnaholland1625]

They needed him

[@jordanperez1568]

You are damn right about that. Although he did make the Eagles better, they didn't need him either.

[@LukeMastny-sb3to]

He liked the paycheck and the party The Eagles provided 🎉

[@carolinayankee2348]

I saw them on this tour. The setlist was the Barnstorm album, with two or three James Gang encores. Great dynamics as they moved through some of the quieter and more nuanced parts of the album. Joe at the top of his game.

[@joebradley1520]

this is by far one of the best solos I've ever heard, and it's frickin LIVE!!! lol...too much

[@MrGotem-gw2pv]

Sometimes being under pressure brings forth awesome.

[@joebradley1520]

​@snakedrivernot all solos are good, this one is way past good

[@nickluzzi8767]

This is my morning wake up song every day.

[@michaeldelsesto2742]

I miss concerts like this. Raw, loud, improvising, pure talent. A four piece band would fill areas with such great music. They had the best instruments and amps back then. Joe would lead the band with just a look and they'd feed off of each other.

[@stephenjones6030]

If you never knew who this guy was and saw him playing this song, you'd be like "Man, this dude is GOOD! He needs to get a record deal!"

[@mikemace9644]

He's had record deals since the 60s with Barnstorm

[@ericsadler9664]

Don Henley in the front row waiting to recruit Joe into the Eagles.

[@ericsadler9664]

@1:45

[@hammer44head]

I'm prett y sure this was the concert that Don, Glenn and Fielder would join in at the end for a little jam.

[@cedarbay3994]

The incomparable Joe Vitale on the drums

[@daveinindy]

Thanks, had missed that. He is amazing.

[@rsuman]

he's a fabulous musician and a funny guy.

[@Fresh-tw7ev]

Some say the stage is still smoldering…

[@michaelkavooras7664]

I’d say so… what a performance!!

[@daveinindy]

It's satisfying that some bands have returned to the raw, buzzy, overdriven tube sounds that made the late 60's and early 70's such a great era for live concerts. That they can pair this sound up with incredible stage shows (Cake, U2, RHCP, etc.) makes me happy about the continuation of "rock" for at least another decade or so.

[@eddygsmusicworld1708]

The great Joe Vitale on drums. I emailed Vitale a question on his website and he replied.

[@nickluzzi8767]

This is where the saying came from . Jamming , rock , and great . This is one of the best played session of joe and joe . Just plan great playing .

[@tachikaze222]

this 5 minutes >> all the musical output of the past 5 years

[@erikletham4944]

Wish i could go back in time to see unbelievable talent in music im so sick of this crap they produce today .joe walsh is badass

[@daveinindy]

Ahhh ... it's not all crap, at all. But auto-tune has certainly changed the arena for many. But quality is most definitely out there, my friend - keep looking, and keep that mind open! The shit is most definitely there.

[@TheHoffa1956]

Incredible! Pure, Raw rock and roll!

[@txmetalhead82xk]

A crushing, sonic, mean riff. I love it.

[@theycallmethehunter5009]

I miss the 70s

[@jeffreyevens2033]

Absolutely Brilliant! Seeing or hearing this has me asking How and saying Wow!

[@innocentoctave]

Kenny Passarelli on bass. The video colour is so unnatural that for a long time I thought that 'she' was a black female bass player - how could I not have heard of 'her'? Joe Vitale on drums. I saw this clip on British television back in the day, and have remembered it ever since.

[@Fresh-tw7ev]

Wow thanks. It had me totally stumped…I thought it was one of the chicks from Fanny doing a guest stint. Yes. Those chicks in Fanny could really rock.

[@ChrisJKing-se4dp]

Outstanding guitarist, Pete Townshend has always praised his genius

[@antoninstancl9198]

Joe was the eye of the eagle

[@johnshuler8688]

My all time favorite song! Thanks for posting. Can we pleeeeease see the rest?

[@TheALBIECHASER]

would have loved to see him an leslie west jam,

[@stonejones2256]

I believe the date of this was May 2, 1975 instead of 1972. But damn it rocks, regardless of the date.

[@BURSRKR]

Love uncle Joe, with his vile of Coke necklace and don Henley at 1:45 in the front row trying to recruit him

[@swhip897]

My favorite guitarist, all time. ❤

[@ginomorales8989]

neighbor: *call the cops cops: *bring amps so Joe can burn the city down properly

[@3gypt1an]

1:42 .. Don Henley thinks this guy needs to join his band

[@terrymartin3036]

Fabulous Live to boot!

[@vmax4steve524]

I saw this on The Old Grey Whistle Test when I was 17 and went out and bought the Barnstorm album, still one of my top five. Where the hell is the rest of this concert video, is it complete and available ?????

[@markrushton1516]

There are bits floating on the internet. rocky Mtn Way and Walk Away. in those days there wasnt much thought given to archiving. I saw it at the same time and that was it. It was rock for me if it looked and sounded like that.

I love this guy. One of my biggest 🎸guitar influences, early in my life!

[@rivarossi3095]

Joe’s on fire 😅

[@GRILLBUOY101]

i like the blonde lady havin a eargazm

[@davicus100]

the drummer doing a pre-disco look maybe that where everyone got the idea few years later

[@paragajg]

Well kids that’s how rock stars were ....and they could play their own instruments and write songs without auto tuning and wore cheap T-shirts n regular jeans. But they had talent..

[@sevenswordsx7]

One of those rare times when the entire band is !00% emotionally invested in the song. The drummer especially!!!

[@eddygsmusicworld1708]

is the drummer Joe Vitale? He drummed on the album

[@robertsnively7373]

Where's the first half of the song?

[@sunstarsmoon]

Hot damn, I've always had a crush on Joe.

[@markmcarthy596]

The best music written is under the influence of stress, joy and psychological enhancements

[@Jet_Rod_94]

I can't even move, man

[@aum3.146]

Pinnacle rocker

[@adamwatson6916]

Mayne they are just in awe and watching plus it looks like a television studio audience. Not much movement would be tolerated

[@daveinindy]

That's the way I remember audiences back in the day. Somewhere in the mid-70's, audiences got a lot more animated. ... maybe earlier, but I lived in Indianapolis at the time, and we were definitely, ahem, reserved. We LOVED the shows, but our midwestern "sensibilities" didn't really drive us to move with the music. Our loss.

[@starpowermike2846]

2:30 "you're coming home with me right"?

[@TheOldHacker]

That audience is listening to some of the most electrifying guitar playing ever and they're just standing there!

[@hihats]

yeah...we were a lot more respectful to the artists back then...we actually went to see & hear them,not act like clowns...fwiw I saw Walsh 2x in '72

[@davicus100]

@@hihats you were all on drugs of course you just stood there zombie like lol

[@patrickforrest4899]

That’s because it stops em dead in their tracks, it’s that damn good!

[@runingblackbear]

Went to this concert I'm the one with the long hair in front

[@GRILLBUOY101]

gotta hand it 2 him.he can make that gibson squeel!

[@cliffbungalow9373]

Fuck that would be loud

[@acommenter5184]

Attentive viewers will see Joe's talkbox taped to the microphone, but not used on this song.

[@DannyJMaloney]

It's actually 1975, and that's Kenny Passarelli (Barnstorm) on bass. ~

[@Fresh-tw7ev]

Whoa! i thought it was one of the chicks from Fanny

[@fredjohnson7588]

Yeah back then it's didn't matter if you looked ugly as hell today is all about looks and if you can play a couple notes on a keyboard or guitar your a genius

[@Jlipnicki]

Like it, even the rough recording is fine. One thing, why do you Americans use the word ' killer ' to mean very good ? It is never used that way in England even by rappers ( not that I listen to rap )

[@gtracing1586]

What effects is he using?

[@ronbo11]

You might want to check out this article in Gibson.com. www.gibson.com/News-Lifestyle/Features/en-us/joe-walsh-0526.aspx

[@f2detaboada]

Tape phaser, echoplex, wah, and a talk box

[@jeffondrums]

This is what a Rock Star looks like! Not that Eagles shit ...

[@glenngordon2352]

That crowd is dead.

[@joelewing4498]

If that pretty woman at 2:32 is still alive and happens to read this....PLEASE weigh in and tell us how your life has gone since they captured you on video 50 yrs. ago. That would be so cool.

[@joebradley1520]

anyone know who the female bass player is?

[@raysnock2533]

HIS name is Kenny Passerelli (sp?)

[@Fresh-tw7ev]

I thought the same thing. Sorry Kenny!!
