Reposted from @lordrarerock SEEMS TO ME - James Gang performing “Walk Away” in 1971 on Beat Club. This song was written and recorded in 1970 by Joe Walsh and released on their album Thirds in 1971. “Walk Away” is a combination of hard rock and funk, with some influence from soul music. Walsh’s guitar work incorporates different types of distortion, including slide guitar. The lyrics are about the ending of a relationship. James Gang was an American rock band formed in Cleveland, Ohio in 1966. They went through multiple lineup changes until they recorded their first album with the power trio of Joe Walsh, Tom Kriss, and Jim Fox. They had two songs, which have withstood the test of time and still continue to get radio play. One being this song and the other is the classic “Funk #49.” In late 1971, Walsh left to pursue a solo career and would later join the Eagles. The band carried on with a number of other guitarists and lead singers to replace Walsh, but it failed to produce a hit song over the course of six more studio albums. Enjoy iiii]; )'
