The Eagles chronicled America in the high-flying Seventies, a time of rapidly changing social mores leading up to what they called “life in the fast lane.” Between the lines, their favorite subject matter was the pursuit and unraveling of the American dream. They began as wide-eyed country-rockers on the fertile Los Angeles music scene and evolved into purveyors of grandiose, dark-themed albums about excess and seduction. The Eagles were defined and bounded by the Seventies, forming in 1971 and parting ways in 1980. They were born again in 1994 as public demand for their music and messages persuaded them to reunite.

One of my all time favorite bands. Just saw them again for the 2020 Hotel California tour. They were amazing as ever. Deacon Frey (HOT) and Vince Gill are great additions.
Thanks for using Waiting In The Weeds, Too Many Hands. Love the mix between studio and the live cuts. GORGEOUS MIX...
It was a few years ago at Gay Days when a DJ (DJ CK) played Hotel California (Latino Summer Mix) that I realized that WE were those "pretty boys that she calls friends". Who knew that the EAGLES would be singing about gay T-dances in 1976.
In my #1 favorite song, I'm proud that the LGBTQ community is represented in one of the greatest classic rock songs!!!
I hope you do an EAGLES part 2 and maybe 3.
I've plenty of ideas!!!
