Eagles – Long Road Out of Eden (180g Vinyl 2LP)

Long Out of Print 2007 Comeback Album Reissued on 180g Vinyl 2LP!

For their first album of all new material in 28 years and last to date, the four remaining members of the Eagles (Glen Frey, Don Henley, Joe Walsh, Timothy B. Schmit) had a pretty good memory of what made them special in the first place. A 20-song effort, 2005’s 7x platinum Long Road Out of Eden has a sufficient dose of sweeping harmonies, an overall uplifting spirit and a country-rock vibe that’s more peaceful easy feelings than Henley or Frey had conjured up as solo acts. A few heartier rockers, which have elements that show the Eagles were not strictly working off a 30-year-old blueprint, help break up the softness. Frey’s reading of Jack Tempchin and John Brannen’s “Somebody” delivers the goods most sharply in making the connection between the Eagles when we last heard from them and the 21st century. Previously had limited vinyl distribution, available here as a 180g 2LP-set.
