Review by somewhereindetroit Aug 26, 2009
The Eagles are for me one of the most overplayed, overrated, boring highly successful acts in music history. For some reason their bland brand of country-infused rocks resonates with mass audiences. Bandmembers Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Randy Meisner, and others have released equally uninteresting material away from the band. The Eagles are really more of a product and a corporate marketing concept than they are a band. My recomendation is to avoid their music at all costs.
