Join us for spIN Focus as we present James Gang’s essential sophomore album, Rides Again. Featuring Joe Walsh’s incredible triple-threat skills as a guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter, this LP includes the definitive classic "Funk #49." Prepare for high-octane rock on pristine vinyl!
Released in 1970, Rides Again marks a pivotal moment where James Gang fully solidified their powerful, blues-inflected hard rock sound, largely thanks to the dominance of Joe Walsh’s creative vision. The album is eclectic, moving from heavy rock anthems to beautiful country ballads, showcasing the band's versatility.
This focused listening session at The Listyning Room is the perfect chance to appreciate the album’s brilliant engineering and the sheer force of Walsh’s fuzz-drenched solos, delivered in stunning clarity on our premier sound system.
Every scintilating track of this amazing LP will be experienced in full fidelity on our world-class stereo system featuring high-end equipment by Audio Note, Klipsch, and Cambridge Audio.
spIN Focus is a shorter event at TLR. There is not an extended presentation or lead up, just a focused listen to this landmark record. There will be a brief introduction and then a full play through of the album. We open on Saturdays at 1:00 pm for Open Spin (BYO music) and record cleaning. The feature LP spins at 4:00pm.
