WikiPedia] James Gang was an American rock band formed in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1966. The band went through a variety of line-up changes until they recorded their debut album as a power trio consisting of Joe Walsh (guitars, lead vocals), Tom Kriss (bass), and Jim Fox (drums). Dale Peters replaced Kriss on bass for the band's second and third albums. Two of the band's signature songs, "Funk #49" and "Walk Away", remain staples of classic rock and AOR stations.
In late 1971, Walsh left to pursue a solo career and would later join the Eagles. The band carried on with a number of other guitarists and lead singers to replace Walsh, but failed to experience any further commercial success over the course of six more studio albums. They disbanded in 1977. Several incarnations have reformed for reunions since then. On September 3, 2022, the band's original power trio returned for a performance at the Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert held in Wembley Stadium.
