The song that I find myself playing the most here recently is "I Talk To The Wind" by King Crimson, but Seltzer already made an amazing review for this song that I will not even attempt to compete with.
Instead the song I am going to review is one that may not be one of my favorites but everytime I listen to it, it puts a smile on my face.
SONG: Life's Been Good
ARTIST: Joe Walsh
ALBUM: But Seriously Folks
Definitely not an award-winner by any means this song, but one that is lighthearted and fun to jam to. Joe Walsh is quite the smart ass in this number. His lyrics are geniunly funny, because I can actually see this behavior coming from him. One of my favorite lines is "I can't complain but sometimes I still do". This song is all over the place instrumentally and it even changes its theme a one point in the middle. His guitar playing is pretty good though. He was lead guitar for The Eagles at one point in his career and even did the vocals for a few songs. He's got sort of a high pitched almost kid-like voice especially in this song. If you haven't heard it, give it a listen, especially if your in the mood for something humorous.
