Quite a few music people died recently

Last week Celine Dion's manager & husband passed away in Vegas and two days later her older brother age 56 also passed away in Quebec.

Eagles are one of my favourite bands. Hotel California was released the year of my GCE O levels, and remains popular today. However, the guitarist that comes to mind for the Eagles was Joe Walsh. Saw him at a concert in Cleveland, Ohio, his own band (not the Eagles), where the crowd was shouting "Joe Walsh for President!" He has a strong following and fan base in Ohio. His reply was, "I can't - I smoke pot!" I like his song, "Life's been good." best. I think his home town is Canton, Ohio. (or Dayton).

Cheers!

when I saw the eagles in concert, Joe walsh had really cleaned up his act. I could barely recognized him until they introduced. He had a short hair cut, slimmed down, looked fit, dranked bottled water on stage. The solo Joe Walsh was a party animal and druggie.

Yinyang.. Thanks again! Didnt know "Love will keep us alive"is a song by Eagles. Nice song! Love it!

Yinyang, thanks for the vids. I am not a fan of Eagles. And I only know Hotel California. But after listening to these few great songs, now i know why they were so popular. And interestingly, in this band, everyone is the vocalist.

They are famous for their harmonizing. Listen to their song "Seven Bridges Road" for a good example.

Thanks for the recommendation! Another nice song. I think i need to get their album soon.

Yup. The new Joe Walsh looks like an insurance salesman. People grow up, and soon conform to society. Eric Clapton was a hippie, druggie during the 60s and 70s, long-hair, bearded, heavy into mind-altering drugs! Now look at him. Short hair, keeps fit, no more wild parties. That's being human. I'm no rock star, but in my youth, was rebellious, anti-establishment, motorcycle maniac. Now, just and ordinary working class tax-paying, law-abiding salesman, living a boring and ordinary life. That's life!

Cheers!

I have lost count of the number of Eagles Albums I have had over the years. In cassette, LP or CD form. I even had a boot leg version which I bought went I visited the States.
