Joe’s first born daughter Emma was killed in a car crash way back in 1974. Emma was not quite 3 years old. Joe wrote “Song For Emma” in tribute to his daughter. It’s the final track on his album “So What”. So Joe also bears the sorrow of the death of his child. Emma Kristen (1971 - 1974) RIP.

Can you really put into words the legendary mystical Joe Walsh? He's a guitar ICON. He's a legendary "bad boy of rock-n-roll" on par with Keith Richards for drugs and booze, and second only to Moon the Loon for his wild life offstage. All that said, Joe Walsh is a man with a ginormous heart who has established a non-profit organization that supports veterans and their families. I once saw an interview with him where he talked about losing his father when he was very young. Joe said he wanted to do something that would make his dad proud. I think he's done that and much, much more!!! Keep rockin'!

Brings to mind watching Snoop Dogg listen to "There I Ruined It"'s adjusted version of "Gin and Juice" software-altered to be sung to the tune of the Jungle Book theme.

I have loved Joe Walsh ever since The James Gang. Great songwriter, guitarist and performer.

Oh boy Adam, Joe Walsh, are you kidding, Well here goes, Joe appeared at one of Eric Clapton's "Guitar Festivals". When he introduced "Life's Been Good" He said; "If I had known that I would have to play this tune for the rest of my life, I would have written something else" Me personally. One night in the winter of 1970-71, I was sitting in a tavern in Strongsville, Ohio (just south of Cleveland) called "The Jail". I was sipping a brewsky and listening to a 3 piece band, which I had never seen or heard before. It was a slow night (it was cold and raining) and the band was just smoking the place. They finished a tune, the guitar player walked over to his amp, took a sip of a beverage, walked up to the mic and said these words; "Oh, by the way, tonight is the last night we are playing here, because tomorrow we are flying out to LA (he might have said California) to record our first album, called "The James Gang". I saw Joe Walsh play his last bar gig, and have been a life long fan, ever since. I wonder if anyone else, there that night, remember what happened there? Although Joe is not a "native" of Cleveland, or Ohio, He is considered one, because he lived there, was on the campus, on Kent State Day, and brought a good deal of notoriety to Cleveland's rock music scene. My favorite tune? Life's been good, no, Rocky Mountain Way, no again. "Turn to Stone" is my favorite, it just makes me feel good when I hear it. Ya Joe got his life straightened out. He now does a lot for advocating for drug use recovery and encouraging young folks to play music. You can't be bad if you do that. After all, "Life's been good to me so far". ;-)

The guitar riff that kicks off the song is painfully underrated. Instantly recognizable, yet nobody talks about it in the same way as some of Walsh's riffs in James Gang and The Eagles, or even solo songs such as Rocky Mountain Way. I could listen to Life's Been Good on a repeating, nonstop loop for a week and still find it as enjoyable as when I heard it the first time around.

Joe was always my favorite Eagle because of his sense of humor! 😊

Joe's music was a part of many summer soundtracks, in the late 70's and 80's. A few years back, in my first trip to Colorado, I drove from Denver to Grand Junction. Literally Rockin' through The Rockies with Rocky Mountain Way blasting from my KZread playlist. In a blizzard. ❤ ya' Joe!

That’s what happens when Keith Moon decides he likes you! 😆

I met Joe Walsh when I was working in an art gallery in Studio City CA. I sold him a framed map of the Florida Keys. He'd just been jogging and smelled of BO. The manager of the gallery told me he didn't like the look of him and to keep an eye on him. I said 'are you crazy, that's Joe Walsh'! lol

One of the absolute BEST '(almost) true-to-life story songs' EVER! For some reason, I have loved this tune since the very first time I heard it- my mother screamed at me to 'change the station- this is druggie music!', at which point I plugged the headphones in and continued listening to Joe's tales of folly and frolic... and fell in love with the song, and later on much more of Joe's offerings. Thanks for the recall sesh Adam, those are some good memories and times in my life back then! Peace

Life's Been Good made my 15 your old self think that just about anything was possible... Such an original song at the time! With bands like Van Halen and The Cars now out at that time, it was interesting to see someone from Eagles show some serious edge...

Joe Walsh is one of the greatest guitarists of all time! I pattern allot of my guitar playing from him and few other big influences! This is one of those songs you just gotta love!

County Fair is my favorite Joe track. It takes me to another world every time

I lived a cross between "Life's Been Good" and "Born to Run" in my teenage years

He's such a great musician, one of the best. And a good dude too.

Joe is the real meaning of Rock n Roll!

He never had to worry about it just coming off as bragging or arrogance because it had such a cheeky humbleness to it. I've got a great car but I don't even drive it. I've got a mansion but I don't even live there. He's not bragging because he acknowledges that it doesn't mean all that much. He hasn't changed from the down to earth guy he was, at least in the story, and he's got nothing to complain about but he still has the normal complaints of every person. He's essentially saying I'm lucky but I'm still just like everybody else. There's a certain humbleness that comes through that makes it so fun.

Hell Freezes Over was certainly a great time. That was my only experience of a live Eagles show, in Mountain View, CA. So glad I got to see them before we lost Glenn Frey.

Joe Walsh wild " anolog man" keep rockin ya"ll. Still Waiting for Joe's buddy interview.Jeff Lynne??

I was walking through a Fry's Electronics big box store when I saw a guy looking like he was 45 going on 70, looking like he's lived a hard life, watching one of the display TV's with tears going down his face. On the screen was Joe Walsh singing his recovery anthem "One Day at a Time." It was pretty obvious this guy, probably fairly newly clean and sober, could relate.

Drummer Joe Vitale's last name is pronounced with three syllables: It's "Vi-tal-ee" - Joe's an ordinary average Italian guy and one of the greatest drummers in rock. He's so good when he subbed for Henley with his ailing back issues during the Eagle's tours after Joe Walsh joined the band, he was constantly inserting all these world class drummer dynamics and spicey fills that Henley was always telling him, "Don't do that!"

I always thought the "I lost my license" meant it was revoked due to criminal speeding, not because he physically lost it.

Hat tip to Travis Tritt as well. His request to have the Eagles perform on his cover made Joe's sobriety a condition of him getting back with the band.

Huge Joe fan. Saw him solo in the early 80s and it was life changing. He's a legend. It was July 1983 in Columbus Ohio and still the best concert I ever saw, and I have been to hundreds over the years.

You need to tell the story of Deep Purple at the 1974 California Jam. The events that took place before the concert and what happened at the finale is worthy of a movie.

Joe is a character for sure. I have never met him, but I have seen him online several times on Bob Heil's online ham radio broadcast Ham Nation. Joe actually wrote the theme song for Ham Nation. It contains the word HAM spelled out in Morse code! He and Bob - who very recently passed away at age 83 - were great friends and both ham radio operators. They knew each other from the days when Bob worked as the sound guy for the Eagles on the road. The whole thing is such a funny paradox because Bob was pure as the driven snow. he NEVER drank once in his life, and of course never used drugs. But when they were on the road the band made sure Bob had as much Dr Pepper as he wanted. Through ham radio, I knew Bob for the last few years of is life. He was a such gem and has so much to do with the development of "Rock and Roll sound." His company Heil Sound is in the Hall of Fame, and he and Joe Walsh remained friends through all the years. Thanks for this story and a great song. Even when Joe was out of control, he could be honest and satirize his situation. I'm really glad he turned it around and kept on rockin.

Excellent song that displays his personality and great guitar playing.

Any interview Joe Walsh gives is pure gold! Particularly in Sonic Highways and the Terry Kath documentary. Hearing Joe talk about Free Form Guitar is about the coolest thing ever! I always back up & rewatch that segment a few times!!🤘

Incredible song. Always adored it. What a Guitar sound. 12 Dimensional. His songs on his own or Eagles or James Gang or Barnstorm, are difficult to play I hear.

Interesting fact: Joe said in an interview that Ringo is a close friend, as their wives are friends, and Ringo was a big source of support for him over the years.

Joe was and is a legend. Doesn't matter if it is Funk #49, his work with the Eagles, Rocky Mountain Way, The Confessor, Analog Man or Wrecking Ball. I would say Wrecking Ball is close to Life's Been Go to Me. "You know it's tough to be the last man standing when your crawling on the floor."

Best concert that I ever attended was Joe Walsh at Mud Island in Memphis in the late 90's after the Eagles reunion. Beautiful summer evening with a clean, sober and happy Joe doing all of his songs. His boxed set had just come out. Every song that I loved was played that night. Perfection ❤❤

You finally did it! You made this video of my favorite rocker. I was 17 when this song came out and worked my summers at a secluded scout summer camp and this song was on repeat at our camp staff housing site. Have seen Joe in the early 80's as he was the first act to play at the brand new "Irvine Meadows Ampitheater " in Irvine Ca. and he cut the ceremonial ribbon with.......you guessed it, his chain saw. Saw him again a few years ago at the LA Forum, his voice is gone but man can he still play the guitar!!!! He's a very modest and humble man, and not afraid to let his fans know how he appreciates us, That without us, there is no him. Thank you, Adam, for doing this video on the "Ordinary Average Guy"

Joe Walsh, rock & roll's favorite Drunk Uncle. "Just act like you know what yer doin', and people will treat you like you know what yer doin' " - Joe Walsh

I always wondered if this song had some real personal experinces to it. In '94 when I was in college at The Ohio State Universitiy, I had the privlage to work as a stage hand for the new opened Polaris Ampithetre in Columbus. This was the top concert that I got to work on and enjoy watching. My memory is during the load in, was working with a hungover british roadie who was up on a truss sweating on me as I was trying to help him hang the scenery in the background of the stage. It was a hot summer's day...

Saw the Eagles in 1978 at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. What a great show. At the end of the show Glen Fry said "Look who's standing at the side of the stage. Grab a guitar and come on out here. Ladies and gentlemen give a big hand for Jackson Brown". And they played Goin to Kansas City!!!! Will never forget it!!!!

Joe Walsh’s brother-in-law is Ringo Star. Epic lyrics I learned in Hit Parader.

Something that not too many people know is that Joe is a Ham Radio operator and some what of an electronics expert, very knowledgable, the other side of his crazy persona. He is often on eBay buying vintage electronic equipment, only the best, for his remarkable collection.

Joe had goofy stuff on the James Gang's "Yer Album." There was studio chatter between Joe and Bill...Bill: "Joe, you've got to be careful of 'squeaking in your sleeve noise." I think it was on "Rides Again" where in the run-out groove you can hear Joe say "Turn Me Over," and at the end of side 2, he says "Play Me Again" repeatedly. For some reason, I didn't like 'Life's Been Good" for many years. But I guess growing older changed it. I now sing along with it! Joe is one of my guitar heroes.

I agree!

Saskatoon,Canada is my hometown. The hotel room he trashed here was one of the first ones he did. A small slice of Prairie history. Life's Been Good is one of my favorite songs from that era of music. Such a fun song, and an interesting look into fame.

My favorite line from Life’s Been Good is “I can’t complain but sometimes I still do.”

I think Walsh is a much more interesting person that the compendium of stupid things that he did while drunk or stoned.

One of my all time favorite songs.

According to Walsh's Buddy Bob Heil (Founder Heil Sound) Joe ended up having a custom Guitar Case made for his Chainsaw to slip it past hotel staff .

I always thought "uh-oh, here comes a flock of wah wahs!" was so incredibly stony. And since I was incredibly stoned the first time I heard it, I laughed hysterically😅

I would have said “you mean, a flock of seagulls”.

Man, they talk about John Bonham..even the whole Zeppelin band and their antics. They got nothing on Walsh. But, out of all the Eagles Walsh went on to become my favorite. I loved his stuff. Life sure has been good to him so far.
