Album Overview:
“There Goes the Neighborhood” is the fifth solo studio album by the American singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Joe Walsh, guitarist for the Eagles. The album was released in early 1981, on the record label Asylum, three years after Walsh's album “But Seriously, Folks...”. A commercial and critical success, it is generally regarded as the culmination of the smoother, more adult-oriented sound of Walsh's solo work.
The album features contributions from two Eagles' members Don Felder and Timothy B. Schmit, as well as session musicians, including Russ Kunkel, David Lindley, Bob Mayo, and Victor Feldman.
The album peaked at number 20 on the Billboard 200. The album only spawned one single, "A Life of Illusion", which would become one of Walsh's most popular songs. The single also topped the Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.
"A Life of Illusion" was recorded in 1973 with Joe Walsh's first solo band Barnstorm but was not completed. The overdubs and final mixes were completed during the “There Goes the Neighborhood” sessions and released on the album. This song also appeared in the opening credits of “The 40-Year-Old Virgin” and appears as the first song on its soundtrack.
Another track "Rivers (of the Hidden Funk)" was a track Walsh wrote for the Eagles' 1979 album “The Long Run”, but was left off. The track featured a guest appearance by Walsh's Eagles-mate Don Felder (who co-wrote the track) on talk box guitar. "Rivers (of the Hidden Funk)" received a good bit of FM radio airplay.
The album's final track "You Never Know" is a song about rumors and hearsay, including not-so-veiled swipes at other members of the Eagles and their management with lines like "The Frontline grapevine jury's in a nasty mood / you might be guilty, honey, you never know." (Frontline Management was Irving Azoff's management firm at the time). Don Felder appears on guitar on this track performing rhythm and dual lead guitar solos with Walsh.
Eagles bandmate Timothy B. Schmit sang backing vocals on the opening track "Things."
