| | Joe Walsh So What CD Joe Walsh Discography of CDs
 (4 Customer Reviews)
Principally recorded at The Record Plant, Los Angeles, California; The Record Plant, Sausalito, California; The Record Plant, New York; Criteria Studios, Miami, Florida.
Walsh's catalog by this point was two albums strong and of a consistently high quality. Despite a change of staff for So What -- a wide range of musicians are used, including the Eagles' Don Henley -- the sound is very similar to previous releases. A number of classic Joe Walsh tracks are featured including a more polished version of "Turn to Stone", originally featured on Walsh's debut album Barnstorm in a somewhat more riotous style. "Help Me Thru The Night", Joe Walsh's mellowest song to date, is helped along by some fine lead and backing vocals from the band.
So What sees Joe Walsh in top gear as a guitarist. Most of the nine tracks feature solos of unquestionable quality in his usual rock style. The classic rock genre that the man so well defined with his earlier albums is present here throughout, and it is pulled off with the usual unparalleled Joe Walsh ability. ~ Ben Davies

So What Music Review Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars)  That's what!
A great rock album that you will never get tired of hearing...
while the album is loaded with great, classic songs, with great lyrics from start to finish...the production quality and sound is what also separates it from other rock albums of the same era.
When you listen to this album along with every other Joe Walsh album/CD, you wonder why Joe doesn't tour more...
all of Joe Walsh's music has stood the test of time, has a unique sound and lends itself across a wide rock audience.
"So What" is the benchmark album that will forever define Joe Walsh as an American Rock Icon...
enjoy!

Forget wasting your time and money on the various best of Joe Walsh CD's.
This little gem is a powerhouse rock album with real guts. Joe makes his guitar scream on, (Turn to Stone), and (County Fair). This is a great rock album, it's one of those rare CD's where you want to listen to every song over and over, and you'll never hit the skip song button. If by chance this CD is packaged as a double two for one set along with, (The Smoker You Drink, The Player You Get) grab two copies, one for yourself, and one as a gift. Joe rocks on both records, and these were some of the first studio sessions that he had the chance to perform with Don Henley and Glenn Frey before joining the EAGLES. This is a must have CD!

Vonray's self-titled Elektra debut is a collection of guitar anthems and ballads that should appeal to fans of middling adult alternative groups like Live, Vertical Horizon, and Remy Zero. Vaughan Rhea is the band's namesake, frontman, and one of three guitarists. He is joined by brother Dave Rhea on bass, drummer Jeff Irizarry, and fellow guitarists Garrett Coleman and Todd Hackenburg. While Vaughan seems to have a strong voice, his delivery here is an irritating three-part impersonation of Eddie Vedder, Ed Kowalczyk, and Scott Stapp. Each lyrical couplet ends with a short, emotive intake of air; most choruses erupt in the throaty, arena-ready bellow Vedder bequeathed to Stapp. Musically, the band evokes the stilted, tentative pop style of CCM groups such as Jars of Clay. Quasi-spiritual lyrics ("Evil deeds that breed temptation," from the Pearl Jam-meets-Live songwriting project "Part of Me") don't help matters any. The rousing first single "Inside Out" has gained exposure for the band through its inclusion on the Smallville soundtrack; there, it is in good company with sound-alikes Lifehouse and Steadman. "Inside Out" is also one of only two songs on Vonray written exclusively by Rhea or his band. The majority of the record was co-written by Rhea and producer Marc Tanner, who ...
