James Gang was an American rock band formed in Cleveland, Ohio in 1966. The band went through a variety of line-up changes until they recorded their first album as a power trio consisting of Joe Walsh (guitars, lead vocals), Tom Kriss (bass) and Jim Fox (drums). Dale Peters replaced Kriss on bass for the band's second and third albums. Two of the band's songs, "Funk #49" and "Walk Away", continue to be popular on classic rock and AOR stations.
In late 1971, Walsh left to pursue a solo career and would later join the Eagles. The band carried on with a number of other guitarists and lead singers to replace Walsh, but after failing to produce a hit song over the course of six more studio albums, the band finally broke up in 1977. Walsh, Fox and Peters have reformed for reunions since then, including September 3, 2022, when the power trio returned for a performance at the Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert held in Wembley Stadium.

Laughably wrong, but thanks for trying.
And I'm thinking they were from DEEtroit. Sorry, calypsus_1, but they certainly weren't from the big ATL.

Kent, Ohio originally unclehud. Not too terribly far from Detroit, but still a 3 1/2 hour trip.
The upside was that the opener, Danny Gatton (the now late Danny Gatton) was f*cking great.
I LOVE THIS!!!
... what Kenny G is to pseudo-jazz. And Joe Walsh doesn't get the credit he deserves for forty years of guitar-ripping.
Excellent suggestion. And James Gang "Thirds" was a superb album.
play me again... play me again... play me again
Turn me over..... Turn me over..... Turn me over.....
Hilarious GIF! Thank you!
Great tune! Bring back memories! Thanx RP!
Rest in Peace, Phillip.
Here in Cleveburg, we generally say, "Joe Walsh and the Eagles".
