Analog Man

A veteran guitar hero grapples with the digital age. Polished, warm, and filled with signature slide guitar and dry, everyman wit.

It's Joe Walsh finally figuring out how to use a computer, but with way better guitar solos than you'd expect.

A cheerful but weary celebration of surviving the past and navigating the present.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The title track's opening riff that immediately signals a return to classic 70s guitar tones with a modern punch.

The heavy, familiar groove of 'Funk 50' which serves as a spiritual successor to his James Gang era work.

The vulnerable, stripped-back honesty of 'One Day at a Time' detailing his journey through sobriety.
