HAPPY 25TH ANNIVERSARY ORDINARY AVERAGE GUY!!!
Wow! Another milestone for another Eagles-related album. They just keep coming, don't they?
I love the title track on this album, but, overall, I have to say that I'm one that prefers Joe's '80's albums over the ones in the '90's.

Happy 25th to "Ordinary Average Guy"!!! :D My Dad still has this and I remember when he first got it, which I would've been around 5, and I loved the lyrics to the title track. :lol: LOL My brother and I would crack up every time my Dad played it, and also because my Dad said it described him and his friends.

OAG get's a bit of recognition at the Ultimate Classic Rock website; http://ultimateclassicrock.com/joe-w...y-average-guy/.
I can remember buying that Wilson Phillips LP, and The Simpsons Sing The Blues. It was a bad time to be a Walsh fan. Richard Marx is pretty good though.
I played those 80s and 90s Walsh albums, Over And Over again, for months on end, in the hope that I'd get to like them more. The 70s albums, I was hooked after a couple of listens.
Here's an emaciated and probably, inebriated Joe performing Two Sides To Every Story in 1991. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsYBcxCCDoY
It's a tough song to sing, even without the harmonica duties, Joe Vitale helps out a little bit, I think they shoulda made it into a full blown duet, It looks like Al Kooper helping out on guitar and "wardrobe malfunction"
I was actually looking for the tv performance where Joe's guitar jack becomes detached from his guitar and the show band play their own version of the song. Joe really was a mess at the time! :shock:

I'm still not a huge fan of the video... but the song makes me laugh.
