Why This Album Is So Great:

One of the best bands of the seventies, The Eagles also have a special place in my CD collection. To me, they are more than anyone else the kings of American west coast rock. This album is filled with all the classics and it covers the career of The Eagles pretty well. Of course, if you feel like knowing more than the hits, I recommend listening to their six individual albums. And if you like The Eagles, there are so many artists from the same background to dig into. In a way, the band was part of a movement 25 years ago, and even though the members have gotten recognition for their solo work, The Eagles remain their main contribution to music history. Like in the case of Supertramp, there isn't much more to say. The Eagles had their own sound and more than anything else it represented endless highways and California living in good and bad times.

Overall Rating (on a scale from 1 to 10):9
