The Story Behind “Rocky Mountain Way” and Its Untouchable Bass Line

Coming up next a classic rock standard that came to legendary guitarist Joe Walsh while he was mowing his lawn. He saw the beautiful scenery around him, the mountains, the greenery, and nature, and the lyrics to the 70s classic Rocky Mountain Way came to him in an instant. He was so excited and so worried he’d forget them, he ran into his house to write them down… The only problem is he forgot to turn off his lawnmower, and it created havoc on his neighbor's yard. Find out what happened next in the story of the guitar classic, and we also have Kenny Passarelli, the co-writer and bassist of the song, to tell us his side of the story next on Professor of Rock.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
