    Default Solo Album Release Dates

    I thought I would post this here to see if any of you Joe experts can help out with this. I have been trying to find the release dates for all of Joe's solo (including Barnstorm) albums so that we can make sure they are all on the Today in Eagles History Calendar. Here's what I have so far ...

    Barnstorm - 9/30/72
    The Smoker You Drink, the Player You Get - 6/18/73
    So What - 12/1/75
    You Can't Argue With a Sick Mind - 10/25/76
    "But Seriously, Folks ..." - 5/16/78
    There Goes the Neighborhood - 5/15/81
    You Bought It ... You Name It - 5/21/83
    The Confessor - 5/??/85
    Got Any Gum? - 7/??/87 or 10/29/87
    Ordinary Average Guy - 4/23/91
    Songs For a Dying Planet - 8/11/92
    Look What I Did - 5/23/95
    Little Did He Know - 11/18/97

    As you can see, I'm looking for in particular to verify dates for the release of The Confessor and Got Any Gum? If anyone can help out with this, I would very much appreciate if you could post the info here or either PM me.

    I tried to find those dates for a calendar I was making several years ago and remember having a lot of trouble finding some of the dates. I don't know that I ever did find them all but I'll look.

    I did look....you have better information than I had. I only had the year for "The Confessor".

    I did have July for "Got Any Gum".

    Well sorry that my thread title gave some of you some false hopes. I didn't even think of that when I named the thread. lol

    And thanks for the info. It looks like the dates for the ones I have are accurate and maybe someone will eventually stumble across the missing dates.

    That's ok Dreamer... I just got a little excited when I saw "Solo Album Release Dates". I've been waiting very impatiently for this new album. After that last video interview Joe did and he said April/May, that really sunk in as "the" time. But it doesn't look like that's going to happen! And that makes me sad!

    I hope you find those other dates!

    I found 5/4/85 as the release date for The Confessor.

    ETA: Got Any Gum peaked at 113 on the Billboard album chart on August 15, 1987 so I'm guessing it was released in July.

    Thank you so much, whitcap. I'll go add that to our "This Day In Eagles History" blog. I appreciate you taking the time and effort to ferret out that info and confirm it.
