Tonight’s mystery artist had a song come to him so quickly he jumped off a running lawn mower which proceeded to his neighbor’s house and ate his garden, can you name the song or band??

Our accidental mower was Joe Walsh and the song that rushed into his head was ‘Rocky Mountain Way’  Walsh told it this way to Howard Stern back in 2012, “I'm living in Colorado and I'm mowing the lawn. I look up and there's the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains and there's snow on them in the summer. And it knocked me back because it was just beautiful. And I thought, well I have committed. I'm already in Colorado and it's too late to regret the James Gang. The Rocky Mountain Way is better than the way I had. Because the music was better. I got the words, bam! I got all of the words all at once and ran into the house to write the words down. The lawn mower kept going over into the neighbor's yard and ate the garden. It was an expensive song to write!"
