Eagles' fourth studio album and the one that really catapulted them into "the big time"...
more o their soft rock sounds on here as evident by the singles...
one instrumental, Journey Of The Sorcerer, some nice banjo work on this one, and enough variation
to keep me interested for the full six minutes of it...
Bernie Leadon wrote the final track on the album, "i wish you peace", it was written for his then girlfriend's
father Ronald Reagan who disowned his daughter after she moved in with Leadon out of wedlock...
band received a Grammy for "lyin' eyes" for best rock vocal performance also...
album was slated by a lot of music reviewers and, the remainder seemed to give it a luke warm reception,
either way it was their biggest seller to date and their first US #1 album...
I LOVE THIS ALBUM
worst track: I wish you peace
best track: take it to the limit
