Essentially the same release, albeit with a slightly rearranged track list, as The Complete Greatest Hits, The Very Best of the Eagles is a two-disc crash course in the career of one of rock music’s most iconic acts. With classic tracks like “Peaceful Easy Feeling,” “Take It Easy,” and “Hotel California,” the compilation touches on some of the band’s most ubiquitous tracks while still taking the time to dive deeper into their discography with its 33-track playlist. While it’s hard not to be at least vaguely familiar with a band as big as the Eagles, this collection will act as a guide for those looking to dig a little deeper into the band’s celebrated back catalog.

Two CD set, 33 tracks. With a career spanning over four decades The Eagles are among the most successful Rock ‘N’ Roll acts of all time. The original Eagles compilation, Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975, remains one of the best-selling records of all time and this updated two CD collection contains all the same hallmarks that made it so successful, with some welcome surprises. The staple recordings remain, with ‘Hotel California’ the most immediately recognizable, as well as hits like ‘Lyin’ Eyes’ and ‘New Kid in Town’. Also included is their single ‘Hole in the World’, written as a response to the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Like many of The Eagles’ songs, the difficult and confrontational subject matter is softened by their trademark vocal harmonies.

The Eagles’ Hotel California was a critical and commercial phenomenon when it was released in December 1976.

The album was nominated for five Grammy Awards, and won for “Record Of The Year” and “Best Arrangement For Voices”. “Hotel California: 40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition” opens with a remastered version of the original album, featuring two Billboard #1 singles – “New Kid In Town” and the title track – plus the smash hit “Life In The Fast Lane”. 40 years later, it still ranks as one of the best-selling albums of all time.

Eagles Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 is the second compilation album by the Eagles. It features many of their biggest hits not on Their Greatest Hits (1971–1975), including “Hotel California,” their signature song. The album was released in 1982, after the band’s breakup. That same year, Don Henley and Glenn Frey both released their debut solo albums.

Eagles – Desperado (1973) [DVD-Audio ISO]

If Don Henley was the sole member of the Eagles underrepresented on their debut album, Eagles, with only two lead vocals and one co-songwriting credit, he made up for it on their follow-up, the “concept” album Desperado. The concept had to do with Old West outlaws, but it had no specific narrative. On Eagles, the group had already begun to marry itself to a Southwest sound and lyrical references, from the Indian-style introduction of “Witchy Woman” to the Winslow, AZ, address in “Take It Easy.” All of this became more overt on Desperado, and it may be that Henley, who hailed from Northeast Texas, had the greatest affinity for the subject matter. In any case, he had co-writing credits on eight of the 11 selections and sang such key tracks as “Doolin-Dalton” and the title song. What would become recognizable as Henley’s lyrical touch was apparent on those songs, which bore a serious, world-weary tone. Henley had begun co-writing with Glenn Frey, and they contributed the album’s strongest material, which included the first single, “Tequila Sunrise,” and “Desperado” (strangely never released as a single). But where Eagles seemed deliberately to balance the band’s many musical styles and the talents of the band’s members, Desperado, despite its overarching theme, often seemed a collection of disparate tracks — “Out of Control” was a raucous rocker, while “Desperado” was a painfully slow ballad backed by strings — with other bandmembers’ contributions tacked on rather than integrated. Randy Meisner was down to two co-writing credits and one lead vocal (“Certain Kind of Fool”), while Bernie Leadon’s two songs, “Twenty-One” and “Bitter Creek,” seemed to come from a different record entirely. The result was an album that was simultaneously more ambitious and serious-minded than its predecessor and also slighter and less consistent. (more…)
