1985 Tour of Australia

The tour was incredibly successful and Joe had an absolute ball. So much so that he decided to stay on and later in the year brought out Waddy Wachtel and Rick Rosas (along with Aussie drummer Richard Harvey) to form the touring group Creatures From America. Full on Rock'N'Roll was the agenda for that tour and it was probably the heaviest sound to come from Joe since the James Gang days. Along the way, the Party Boys released an album featuring Joe called "You Need Professional Help". In 1989 Joe returned to Australia for his second tour with The Party Boys.



“Good Man Down” by Joe Walsh and Waddy Wachtel

Well a good man’s getting hard to find these days but there still a few around.
A whole world looks up to a good man, It’s hard to keep him down.
So if you’re going out looking for a good, good time,
But the boys all turn into clowns,
Focus your attention, don’t forget to mention,
No don’t forget to mention that the boys just love it when you dish it out.
Easy with the ones you’ve found.
And your wind up toys keep you busy for awhile until a good man comes around.

Well you can yell and scream, treat them mean, beat them up with words,
Throw them in the face you say. Do this, do that what it is, where it’s at, anything to get you your way.
And you change your mood, cop an attitude, take them to the cleaners.
Just because you’re steaming, just because you’re hot,
Just because all the boys stop talking when you raise your voice.
Your temper ends up on the ground, you don’t mean nothing to a good man.
It’s hard to keep a good man down, down, down, down.
Well it’s hard to keep a good man down.

Go to war, slam doors, have a fit, throw shit, use every little trick you’ve found.
It don’t mean nothing to a good man,
Just because all the boys start shaking when the dishes fly,
Tremble as they crawl on the ground.
Well it’s hard to keep a good,
Hard to keep a good man down.
Yes it’s hard to keep a good man down.
