    Eagles: The Very Best Of

    • In The Fast Lane, the Top 30 Seven Bridges Road, Victim of Love (a hard rocking album cut), the Top 10
    • If you are a music fan, you will love the variety on this CD from "Country" to "Southern Rock" to "Soft Rock" to "Hard Rock", the Eagles did it all!
    • I generally skip over still, mostly the slower light rock songs
    • very good old school rock
    • Get Over It" may not be the greatest thing they ever did, but it's a fast, insanely catchy rock and roll tune with fun lyrics
    • Eagles are a Classic Rock Band not a modern Rock Band Fred
    • The Very Best Of" by The Eagles is a well-assembled two cd set of daring classic rock songs.
    • This superb double disc work is surely the event of the year, given the fact that we finally hjave in one place all of the terrific folk-rock of one of the 1970s and early 1980s super groups
    • The Eagles are the finest rock band ever brought to us from the 1960s - 1970s era, who continue to provide us with excellent rock music.
    • An awesome gift for anybody who loves good old fashion rock and roll with people who can sing and play an instrument
    • If your a lover of classic rock this is a must have for your C.D. library.
    • Fortunatley they have garnered enough rocking tracks that I would pick up this double disc set
    • Peaceful Easy Feeling" is excellent soft rock that could never truly fade away; and listen for other gems including a marvelous, passionate treatment of "Desperado" with those strings enhancing the ballad even more
    • A lot of hits, but nothing compared to...3) "Hotel California" and The "Long Run," which subtracted Leadon (and eventually Meisner) for Joe Walsh (and eventually Timothy B. Schmit), had a ton more hits, a little more soft rock ("New Kid in Town"), a genuine anthem ("Hotel California"), a couple of burnout anthems ("Life in the Fast Lane," "Those Shoes"), a song they've convinced themselves sounds like Thom Bell's productions for The Spinners ("Wasted Time"), a semi-yahoo song ("Heartache Tonight"), and one they wrote with/for Timothy B. Schmit, the second bassist
    • How can anyone argue with the best of the best rock group ever to hit the planet?
    • The Eagles are one of the best American rock bands, period.
    • It seems like every old school classic rock artist has a 2 cd set out!I had audio cassettesof GREATEST HITS and GREATEST
    • Certainly there are few better rock songs that "Hotel California" and "Take It Easy."
    • The band's smooth harmonies, desert themes and edgy country-rock style attracted me then and still keeps me interested
    • over all excellent product one of the all time great rock and roll band's with lots of well known hits.
    • so You can listen their growth from a terrific california-country-rock band to an acomplished super group by the time of "The Long Run"
    • So don't be trying to compare them to nu-metal rap/rock crap like limp bizkit.
    • so, this collection is chock full of memories and classic rock music.
    • Add to that the unfortunate passing of Mr. Glenn Frye very recently and this collection is a must have for anyone that has ever referred to themselves a Classic Rock fan
    • so i highly recommend getting this collection if you want timeless good rock music ;

    • Fans of country and classic rock do love the Eagles
    • The Very Best Of" by The Eagles is great for those who like classic rock music and/or at least seven songs by The Eagles
    • ’s sound has had an effect on listeners because of the diverse musicianship of each member that came from already accomplished bands and blended their unique sound from country, folk, and good ol’ rock and roll.
    • And of course, being a country music fan/musician, I couldn't end this review without mentioning "Desperado," one of the classic country/rock songs of all time
    • A great classic rock album, a must have and the price is right!
    • Anything else, outside of their rendition of Steve Young's poignant "Seven Bridges Road", "New Kid in Town", or "The Sad Cafe" which lamented the end of the singer-songwriter and California Country Rock era well, nothing more than Don Henley over and over and over again
    • The Eagles was one of the most influential bands in what is now known as "classic rock"
    • Rising from the country rock ashes of Poco and the Flying Burrito Brothers (which contributed band members) the Eagles became one of rock's top selling bands by joining stately, meticulous rock and pop to insightful but often cynical lyrics

    • The variety of musical genres proves that The Eagles mastered music fluently: rock, pop, and country.

    • Throughout their 30 year career in music, they have made some of the greatest and most memorable rock songs
    • He told me I was a loser for liking fake rappers that use synthesized voices and I should check out this classic rock band named the Eagles.

    • This is arguably the greatest rock band from The United States.
    • Randy's lead contributions are solid as a rock as well, but the blend of his voice with Frey's or Henley's is what defines the inimitable sound of the Eagles-the sound of an era.

    • It's "classic rock" entertainment at its very best, and a "must-own" for all Eagles fans.
    • Eagles have always intrigued me, on one hand they can rock really well, borderine on hard rock, and other times you hear a cluster of songs on Light Rock radio perhaps while waiting at the dentist office
    • "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 best of the very best rock band of the 20th century.
    • 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 '
    • The first big hits phase (adding Don Felder), which yielded a lot of soft rock stuff ("The Best of My Love," "Lyin' Eyes"), a song they've convinced themselves sounded like the Philadelphia soul/Gamble & Huff ("One of These Nights"), a yahoo anthem ("Already Gone"), and one they wrote with/for Randy Meisner, the first bassist ("Take It to the Limit")
    • Best rock and roll band of the 20th and now 21st century.
