All-Music Review Of "Eagles Live"
The Eagles were always a yawn in concert, and this profit-taking re-creation
of their hits demonstrates the lifelessness they brought to live work.
Today's fans should listen before forking over all those bucks to sit in
the stadiums and experience it themselves. -- William Ruhlmann, All Music
Guide



Q Magazine (7/93, p.104) - 3 Stars - Good - "...this is The Eagles just
before the split...If they were as disillusioned as they claim they were
by then, it doesn't show. Quite the opposite in fact; this performance
is as crisp and enjoyably spirited as this sort of thing can be..."



CD Connection Review Of "Eagles Live"



The Eagles were riding high on the success of their 1979 album THE LONG
RUN when they released this two-LP live set (faithfully reproduced on two
short CDs). They were also about to break up, making EAGLES LIVE their
unintended swan song. Unintentional or not, EAGLES LIVE makes a nice wrap
to the Eagles' not-so-long but incredibly strong run, featuring nearly
studio-perfect renderings of the ballads ("Desperado") and country rockers
("New Kid in Town") on which they made their name, and of the tougher rockers
they drifted toward later in their career (such as "The Long Run," which
Glenn Frey introduces as "our tribute to Memphis, Tennessee"). EAGLES LIVE
also includes a harmony-filled cover of Steve Young's lovely "Seven Bridges
Road," which turned out to be the Eagles' last pre-reunion hit, and a couple
of Joe Walsh solo turns (including "All Night Long," from the 1980 movie
URBAN COWBOY). Most of the album was recorded in July 1980; a few tunes
from October 1976 are thrown in for good measure. All of it was recorded
in California, as an Eagles album should be.
