Album of the Day

For the final album on their Elektra/Asylum contract, Eagles delivered their first concert recording, EAGLES LIVE. Drawn from several shows including 1976 L.A. Forum gigs with former member Randy Meisner, the 1980 double L.P. leans most heavily on meticulously recreated (and partially overdubbed) versions of favorites from HOTEL CALIFORNIA and THE LONG RUN. Beyond greatest-hits territory, there are also a couple of Joe Walsh solo songs and “Seven Bridges Road,” a showcase of the band's immaculate harmonies that became a Top 40 single. Glenn Frey was born on this day in 1948 and in his honor, we'll cue it up the Top 10, multi-Platinum EAGLES LIVE.
