Great Cd, the Eagles were one the best music groups of the 70's
What leaves me in awe is that, while the Eagles are a household name, groups such as the Velvet Underground have yet to break through to the mainstream audience they deserve
A great compilation of one of my all time favorite groups,
What can I say - great CD from a long time favorite group
I love this double CD by one of my favorite groups of all time.
The Eagles have always been one of the best bands around
The Eagles were the best American singles band of the 70's and all their really good songs are here
"Hole in the World," written in commemoration of the events of September 11, 2001.Listeners will be able to quickly discern The Eagles' evolution from a country-rock band in the early 1970s, with their flowing vocal harmonies, to the edgier hard-rock band they became in the late 1970s and early 1980s
The band broke up in the early 80's and Henley recorded his first solo
The Eagles are one of the best American rock bands, period.
This is the definitive collection of their greatest hits
This two-CD best of that far surpasses their skimpy first greatest hits sets (or the mediocre second one, which only plucks songs from "Hotel California" and "The Long Run," plus "Seven Bridges Road" from their live album), and isn't as overstuffed, I guess, as their box set
The Very Best Of" isn't really a "greatest hits" album per se; Not all of the songs contained in this compilation were released as singles, and therefore don't qualify as "greatest hits
Great CD with many great songs that are not on the greatest hits album.
I think the Eagles are a perfect example of a band where their lesser-known songs absolutely SMEAR their greatest hits.
Great CD, if you love the Eagles, this is the CD for you
This CD was obviously made from an old used vinyl LP and not a studio master.
That can I say, if you like the Eagles, no reason why you would not enjoy this CD.
However this disk I like all the others does not give song titles or anything not disappointed with the music Eagles are the best disappointed with the CD formatting big pain now for me to type in each song.
It truly is the BEST of the Eagles - all around great CD
If you love the Eagles like I do the title to their album is what it is.
Great CD, if you love the Eagles, this is the CD for you
And even with being a die hard Eagles fan with all of the CD's, I'm still glad that I got this because it made it a lot easier to create the playlist for my MP3 player.
Absolutely love the Eagles: the Very best of the eagles!!
I love the Eagles and there are some great songs on thisCD!
It offers a bit of everything they've done from their earliest, country-rock hits Takes It Easy and Peaceful Easy Feeling to the poppier disco edge of One Of These Nights, the harder rock tone of The Long Run-era, their comeback single of '
It's "classic rock" entertainment at its very best, and a "must-own" for all Eagles fans.
Eagles are a Classic Rock Band not a modern Rock Band Fred
This is such great music to relax to, especially when you're bored of all the hard rock and metal
The Eagles was one of the most influential bands in what is now known as "classic rock"
then you are most likely a hard core Eagles fan & should just purchase their entire collection of albums.
A casual fan, like myself, would have preferred a newly updated single disc collection of the Greatest Hits and Greatest Hits 2 material, plus a couple of deep tracks or new songs.
This two CD set is geared toward the more casual fan and maybe other people who are becoming more and more into The Eagles and their amazing sounds--and these fans won't be disappointed!
I couldn't think of one hit that was missing, although, I'm not a real 'hard core fan', as I only bought a few of their albums, first Greatest Hits and the Eagles Live - 1980.
Being a die hard Eagles fan it brought back many memories.
or basslines like Green Day has in their super super awesome cds!??For good music avoid the Eagles and stick with real rock and rap like Drake, Eminem, Lil Wayne, Nickelback, Papa Roach, and Limp Bizkit!
So don't be trying to compare them to nu-metal rap/rock crap like limp bizkit.
The intro to "Hotel California" is garbage compared to Nickelback, "Life in the fastlane" has an annoying chorus that doesn't make any sense, and "Desperado" wishes it was as good as anything Limp Bizkit ever wrote!
I all ready had all these songs, I just wanted them on one cd
this guy is really just plain dumb if you have the chance read some of his retarded reviews want to kno where to find them just go to OPETH DAMNATION CD and clikc for 1-star reviews only and then come across a name that says FRED DURST NUMBA 1 FAn which is stupid sense limp bizkit sucks
Hotel California is a monster of a song, other super songs are Wasted Time and The Last Resort
I really love Wasted Time, The Last Resort & The Sad Cafe
Then there are some more album tracks Wasted Time, The Last Resort (one of my all time favorite tracks), Those Shoes and In the City
The second phase of the band's career kicks off on disc two with Life in the Fast Lane, Wasted Time, Victim of Love, New Kid in Town and The Last Resort
I love the message this song conveys: enjoy your time at the top, because gonna come and knock you right off
Take It To The Limit, The Sad Cafe, Love Will Keep Us Alive, and Get Over It
I really love Wasted Time, The Last Resort & The Sad Cafe
The songs just keep feeling as strong as they were issued back then
The Sad Cafe (one of Henley's best songs).Joe Walsh's In the City is rightfully included as it's one of his best Eagles songs (and one of Frey's favorites)
On the bright side, this includes most of what you'd want from 1974 on, along with some overlong dead weight like "Wasted Time", "Last Resort", and "Sad Cafe"
I Should be able to BURN a backup copy from there or upload to a Cloud computer for use with the other gadgets I don't have!
I had lost my copy of one their earlier Greatest Hits and was very happy I could replace it with this one.
so I bought a hard copy of the cd

This packed double-disc is the slim option for fans who find the Eagles' vaunted greatest hits sets too little and the boxed set too hefty
Hit singles large and medium are here, often ("One of These Nights," "Hotel California") still sounding definitive and even tough
Large helpings of favorite album cuts are also included, along with a taster from a promised 2004 Eagles studio reunion
Unfortunately, "Hole in the World," Don Henley's response to September 11, feels just as empty and entitled as "Get Over It," the band's previous state-of-the-union message (from which the newer song represents a philosophical 180-degree turn)
But for those seeking an overview of this Southern California juggernaut's successes, as well as telling comments from band members--mostly Henley and Frey--in a well-designed booklet, Very Best will more than do
