Product Description Import only reissue of the 1994 compilation has been remastered with new artwork. The 17 classic tracks featured on this hits retrospective spans from 1971-1980 and is truly the very best of The Eagles. Includes 'Take It Easy', 'Witchy Woman', 'Peaceful Easy Feeling', 'Doolin Dalton', 'Desperado', 'Tequila Sunrise', 'Best of My Love', 'James Dean', 'I Can't Tell You Why', 'Lyin' Eyes' and more. Warner. 2001. .co.uk Their back-catalogue is studded with impeccably crafted country-rock gems, so virtually any Eagles greatest hits compilation is guaranteed not only to be chock-full of killer songs but also to have left off a fistful of personal favourites. In many ways, though, this 17-track compilation provides a more consistently enjoyable alternative resumé of their career than the recent four-CD box set, Selected Works. Country rock was invented, depending on whom you ask, by The Byrds, The Everly Brothers or Rick Nelson, but it was The Eagles who transformed it into a multi-platinum business and ultimately spawned the Nashville hat act syndrome. It's hard to hold even that against them though when the fresh Southern California breeze blows through "Take It Easy", when the New Mexico sunset is perfectly evoked by the opening arpeggios of "Hotel California" or when the four-part vocal harmonies kick in on the ultimate cheating song, "Lyin' Eyes". Throw in "One of These Nights", "Take It To The Limit" and "Tequila Sunrise", and it's more like a history of the entire genre than a single artist compilation. --Johnny Black

Perfect compilation of hits
Originally bought this for my father as a 50th birthday present, and when I heard it from beginning to end in the car for the first time it really helped to illustrate the genius of the band's music at large.Being 27 at the time of writing, I was obviously born a long time after the band had all called it quits, but Dad often explained how much of a big deal they were. This is the best compilation to use to prove it."Take It Easy" and "Witchy Woman" are my two personal favorites from them. Ricky Nelson might have invented country rock, but The Eagles took it to the Mountain!

Great Album
Bought this album a few years ago and gradually over time it became scratched and kept jumping, I saw this advertised and bought it. Brilliant album.

A decent collection of 1970s Eagles
There are so many Eagles compilations with virtually identical titles that it is difficult to offer the best advice on which one to buy. Personally, I think this 1-disc 17 track format provides an ideal platform for your collection; all the big hits are there including the classic 'Hotel California' as well as 9 of the 10 tracks from the superb 'Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975'. My favourites here include the gorgeous 'Best Of My Love', the sweet-sounding 'One Of These Nights', the power ballad 'Take It To the Limit' and the 6-minute narrative of 'Lyin' Eyes. Lovely 70s nostalgia - buy this and feel the 'Country' vibe warm you up!
