May I be the first to wish Joe, his family and the rest of you a very Merry Christmas from Oxfordshire, England! It's too mild here to be a white Christmas but we might get a frost on Boxing Day. (I...

Good work fella!
Fab interview - I didn't know a lot of the early stuff. Flattered to hear his good words about the English guitarists. I suppose payback was when Brian May called him the guitar...
Thanks guys - I've found a few now.
The best thing is the opening tunings that Joe uses - you only have to set these up and your playing sounds like him already.
(For those that play, try DADF#AD...
As a keen guitarist I yearn to emulate the great man - does anyone know any good sites for chords/lyrics to Joe's songs?
I already have Chordie.com - any others?
Take care all,

I know just how you feel. After seeing him in London in 1975 I didn't see him again until the Hell Freezes tour, again at Wembley. I was fine until his first solo vocal - Pretty Maids All in a Row -...
Pete Townsend was a big JW fan. I think he appreciated that like him, Joe played/combined rhythm and lead so effectively.
The James Gang supported The Who on a UK tour way back
The man has no taste!!
It was brilliant wasn't it? To hear him play "Can't get enough" with Paul Rodgers was fab. Interesting to see he got the lion's share of the DVD as well.
As an English gentleman...I am sure that all the ladies on this board are of the most splendid virtue and elegance as befits a female of the species.

As you say - what a concert! Stevie Wonder was rumoured to be supporting at one stage but he was replaced by the Beach Boys. My self and two mates had been big JW fans since hearing "So What", tracks...
Reading the article again brings it all back. Me and two mates drove up to London from Southampton (south coast) for the gig and it was a scorching hot summer's day. We booked tickets for Elton John...
Wow! Martin! thank you for that! I wish I could read that lineage better *G* what a great article! Thanks again!
Would it help if I broke the article down into smaller chunks and posted them?
As promised I am attaching pages from Zigzag magazine from 1975 re the Midsummer Madness concert featuring Joe. If you are unable to read the print, let me know and I can send direct to you a much...
Welcome Martin-always nice to hear from another long time Eagles fan. And please post anything you want to on here. We always love new stuff!
I'll try and scan the whole article - it's got a...
I live in Abingdon, just down the old A34
Hi Guys,
Just found this board and have to say how lucky you guys are being able to see Joe in the US.We English fans get him in the Eagles, but his only solo UK gig was at Wembley in 1975. I was...
