New Joe Walsh Music to appear on Soundtracks

[Funk 50]

I remember that Joe was working on some film music last year;

I think the two films (Citizen Soldier and Danger Close) are out this month. Joe's been doing some media over the weekend, I'm looking forward to hearing more.

Joe's new song is titled No Man's Land. It's out in August, same time as the Citizen Soldier documentary, it was written for.

Exciting news! Thanks for posting!

you're welcome Sodascouts, it's great to have a place to post all these Walsh lonks.

Joe will be on CNN promoting Citizen Soldier tomorrow

Here's Joe's short interview with Michaela Pereira. It's a plug for his tour. He doesn't mention Citizen Soldier although we get a clip and a little bit of his new track, No Man's Land which, on first impression, sounds awful :yuck:

It sounds like there is more that wasn't shown.

If you're wondering why all these posts got copied over - new music from Joe is pretty big news, so I thought I'd make it into its own thread.

No Man's Land which, on first impression, sounds awful :yuck:

I haven't been so disappointed in new Walsh material since I first heard Fairbanks, Alaska as a taster for Joe's 1992 Songs For A Dying Planet album.
I thought Joe was finished.

Songs For A Dying Planet turned out to be my favourite Walsh album for Decades. Joe came back from the dead, the Eagles successfully reunited, Joe's got better and better, it was good to be a Walsh fan again. :yay:

Did Joe really say he's writing better than ever :shock:
I hope I'm wrong about No Man's Land. :huh:

Walsh will appear on John Mayall's new "studio album." I'm not sure when it will be released, but this is a recent article.

Interestingly, Mayall had never met Walsh. Here is Mayall describing what happened:


“I’d never met him [Walsh] before and I didn’t even know that he was into blues, but apparently he got in touch with the studio head and wanted to come down and play with us,” Mayall tells ABC Radio. “So I thought, ‘Well, why not?’ and it turned out he turned in some great blues work.”

Here's the link to the article: http://kwbe.com/abc_classicr/john-mayall-says-joe-walsh-contributed-great-blues-work-to-next-album-mayall-launches-new-us-tour-abcid35770256/

Thanks for the link WalshGirl. The article says John Mayall's new album, Talk About That, is due to be released early next year. Great to hear that Joe initiated the collaboration.

I'm looking forward to the Frankie Miller release in a couple of weeks, http://www.udiscovermusic.com/frankie-millers-double-take-a-new-look-at-an-icon

Joe and Rod, Woho!

Thanks for the tip, WG. Hopefully, we'll hear more about this soon.

Thanks for the tip, WG. Hopefully, we'll hear more about this soon.

You're welcome! :)

And I also found these references to Walsh and Paul Rogers perhaps collaborating on a CD or something.

In 2012, I discovered articles about Walsh collaborating with his former James Gang (http://http://ultimateclassicrock.com/joe-walsh-resurrects-the-james-gang-with-new-recording-sessions/) members on a few recordings; and, more recently there were several references about a blues collaboration (http://http://b1027.com/joe-walshs-blues-album-due-in-2014/) in 2013-2014. But neither effort has come to fruition.

With the Eagles not playing for now--although Henley (http://http://montrealgazette.com/entertainment/music/qa-don-henley-on-growing-up-in-cass-county-eagles-and-coping-with-the-loss-of-glenn-frey) recently didn't rule it out as a possibility for later--maybe Walsh will have time to finish these and perhaps other projects.

Thanks from me, too, WG! I look forward to hearing more.

You're very welcome! We all need more Joe! :grooving:

At last! the full 5:57 minute version of No Mans Land:

http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/rock/7518989/joe-walsh-no-mans-land-song-afghan-war-doc-exclusive?utm_source=twitter

It's a bit Long Road Out Of Eden intro / Peter Gabriel ethnic instrumental crossed with, rockin' Joe, call and response vocals, brilliantly bridged with some fabulous guitar. Joe can't be familiar with the unforgettable experience of The Wurzels ... Ooh Aah!

I much prefer Joe's softer vocals but his guitar work is still stellar ;)

Thank you for the link. :) That's a great critique of the music and vocals.

I'm eager for Joe to make "No Man's Land" available commercially. Hopefully, that will happen soon.
