Eagles - Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975: Eagles: Music

I still think of the ride to Ocean City, MD when I was a kid when I hear "Witchy Woman." My mother who was an Eagles fan in her youth never let go of them and we listened to her tapes all the way down the road. This is the record you want if you want their hits... in actuality -- they are all good albums. The pre-Hotel California years were arguably the best for The Eagles (though there were, thanks to Joe Walsh, some stellar future moments). Their mix of country, folk, and rock had a harder, grittier edge, and helped define what would become known as the Southern California sound. There was just enough of a country feel in the beautiful harmonies of "Best of My Love," to blur the edges between the genres. "Take It Easy" and "Lyin' Eyes" could easily have come out of the new Nashville school, as well. The twang that characterizes the guitar intro to "Already Gone" and the leads in "Witchy Woman" and "One of These Nights," also pays tribute to country's guitar greats. Greatest Hits 1971-1975 houses a scant ten singles, but not only does it illustrate the magic of the collaboration between Glen Frey and Don Henley, it shows the breadth of The Eagles impact on the many who would follow their lead. --Steve Gdula

  • My pregnant belly has been craving all things from early childhood...music included. This was one of my first vinyl albums and is arguably one of the best albums of all time. Plus, it has "Human Nature" which is one of my favor... My pregnant belly has been craving all things from early childhood...music included.

  • She may be no good, but this album is great. Divorced from the drama surrounding her, she made a damn good album, one of the year's best. Talk about a tun from her previous album, Frank. It's hard, because obviously this amazin... She may be no good, but this album is great. Divorced from the drama surrounding her, she made a damn good album, one of the year's best. Talk about a tun from her previous album, Frank. It's hard, because obviously this amazing album was born from the pain that lead her to her drug problem, but should also act as a reminder that there's a damn good reason people care what happens to her. Hopefully she can clean up and make a great comeback record.
