Ain’t nobody groove a six-string like Joe Walsh. The Eagles legend teamed up with Sheryl Crow for a duet on “Still the Good Old Days” and “Walk Away,” and you better believe the chemistry was off the charts! The pair performed on CMT Crossroads and shared lead vocals on their collaborative single “Still the Good Old Days.” Crow held it down on bass guitar, while Walsh played a seriously funky rhythm guitar and traded licks with Crow’s lead guitarist.
Crow has an incredible live voice, and her smoky vocals made for a great performance. What’s more is that both Crow and Walsh clearly had so much fun rocking out together. Crow wore a big grin throughout, and while it’s not Walsh’s style to smile too much onstage, he was clearly really digging the groove throughout.
The CMT Crossroads upload of the Crow and Walsh performance proved to be quite popular, as it gained 4.2 million views on YouTube. Fans were stoked to see the two stars team up and added comments such as “Sheryl and her band are clearly enjoying themselves playing with Joe. He is a legend!” and “Love the way everyone reacts when Joe Walsh starts singing.”

The Music Man’s favorite Joe Walsh moment came when he delivered lead guitar and lead vocals on “Rocky Mountain Way” live with the Eagles at the Capital Center in Washington DC back in March 1977. The band was touring Hotel California at the time, and found room in the set for “Rocky Mountain Way,” which is a driving blues rocker that Walsh released in 1973 with his band Barnstorm.
Crow and Walsh co-wrote “Still the Good Old Days” and released the song on June 14, 2019, as the fourth single from Crow’s 11th studio album, Threads. The lyrics of the song address a couple celebrating the success of their long-running relationship despite the inevitable ups and downs that come with being a couple. Threads featured a long list of big-name collaborators, with stars like Stevie Nicks, Eric Clapton, Sting, Neil Young, Willie Nelson, Keith Richards, and Chris Stapleton making appearances. The album marked Crow’s debut on Big Machine Records and was a minor hit for the Missouri star, peaking at number 30 on the US Billboard 200. It also hit number two on the US Top Country Albums chart and topped the UK Country Albums chart.
