The only thing redeeming 'bout the Eagles is Joe Walsh.
James Gang is NOT CRAP...
I even like that "Life's been good to me so far" song.

32I've been spending the last five minutes staring out the window and trying to decide who is worse: the Eagles or the Steve Miller Band?
Point in favor of the Eagles: Steve Miller had the annoying tendency to write songs in which the lyrics in the chorus had nothing to do with the lyrics in the verses.
Point in Steve Miller's favor: He didn't write "I Can't Tell You Why."

could play their instruments very well

could write songs very well
could make records very well
sounded great on the radio, in a car, or in a bar, anywhere else
got more chicks than Led Zeppelin and The Rolling Stones put together
had/did more/better drugs than anyone else
were better than Gram Parsons, Wilco, and Palace put together
"After the Thrill is Gone" does more in one song that the entire recorded output of GBV, The Clash, and The Stooges
were the greatest band of all time.
definitely, Not Crap.

I, once many many many moons ago, worked at a "big box" retailer, about the time that the Eagles Reunion CD came out. Holy shit, what a piece of shit record, with piece of shit versions of songs that made me long for the original versions which until this point I had never wanted to ever hear again.
The Reunion DVD (VHS at that time) = "action" visuals of the same horseshit.
The version of "Hotel California" is all acoustic guitars, and Don Henley chose to play a rimshot in place of the snare hit. The song never ever "kicks" in.
For like 6 minutes the drum beat is just "boom-click boom-click....." WTF?
How is it possible that this "Hotel California" song could be made to suck any more than it already did?!
Congratulations, The Eagles: you have done the impossible. FA-Q.
CRAP.

37I'd much rather listen to The Eagles than Prince.
Brick Layer Cake covered a The Eagles song. It was awesome.
