There Goes the Neighborhood

Joe Walsh

Gritty slide guitar meets early eighties synthesizers. A playful, satirical rock record that balances deadpan humor with world-class musicianship.

Find on Amazon

It's the ultimate 'windows down, volume up' record for when you're feeling a little bit cynical and a lot like rocking out.

A high-spirited blend of guitar-driven confidence and dry, suburban cynicism.

Moments Worth Waiting For
the sudden shift from the simple drum intro to the soaring slide guitar lead on Things
the way the synthesizers provide a glossy eighties sheen to the gritty blues riff of Rivers
the cynical lyrical bite of You Never Know cutting through the polished studio arrangement
