You Can't Argue with a Sick Mind is a live solo album by the American singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Joe Walsh. The album was released in early 1976 as Walsh's last album for ABC Records. It was recorded live just before Walsh joined the Eagles. Three members of that group appear on the song "Help Me Through the Night".
A live album. Feels like another send-off to the early Barnstorm days, as the lineup that recorded But Seriously, Folks is already in place, and much of the material sounds different than the studio versions. For example, "Meadows" branches off into a goofy space-rock style ending. And this version of "Turn to Stone" plays on its own zoned-out plane. This is a nice recovery from the downgrade of the previous record and honestly, it would have been better if Joe had plowed through the transitional period from Barnstorm to the Eagles with one mega double live album instead. Just sayin'….
