Album Notes & Community Reviews

Driven by the blistering guitar work and rapidly evolving songwriting of Joe Walsh, the Ohio trio's second effort is remarkably diverse, neatly divided between heavy electric riffing and acoustic introspection. The inclusion of the iconic, swaggering 'Funk #49' firmly established their legacy as premier architects of early American hard rock.
