Seriously... you think that?

Wow.
I would have never imagined one would put "overrated" and "the Eagles" in the same sentence.

Ok, just listened to the greatest hits cd...

I must admit they are good. Some of the songs are a bit strange, but overall not bad.

I'll admit there are a few songs that i'm fond of, but I just find that people give them too much credit, that's my opinion anyways.. but hey, the thread's about Eagles fans, soo.. yay Eagles, heh.

I'm with ya Oye, they are good, but there are much better bands in my opinion. Give me Zeppelin over the Eagles any day.

I like the Eagles, some good stuff, but not my faves....but at least I know about them! Wormez man, you didn't know of the Pinkest of Floyds either *shakes head* - we need to teach you the ways.

I have noticed the older I get the more I'm tapping into the older music genre. The Eagles is definetly a Band which I have been listening to over the past few years due to my curiousity of older music.

Btw, I just downloaded myself some Buddy Holly...

Quite a talented man.

Logan/Arilyn: Eagles rock.

Boy, you have a lot to catch up on...

Peaceful Easy Feeling
Life In The Fast Lane
Lyin' Eyes
New Kid In Town
One Of These Nights
Take It Easy

Or surely you must have heard of the members, who all have respectable (solo) carreers besides their work in the Eagles...

Don Henley, tons of well known solo work... and lots of duets, including Stevie Nicks, Patty Smyth, Trisha Yearwood and... Kermit

Glenn Frey, also well known for solo stuff like The Heat Is On and You Belong To The City.

Joe Walsh... legendary guitarplayer, formerly James Gang and a long solo career as well...

Timothy B. Schmit... well respected session musician and long time member of that other southern "country-rock" band called Poco. Interestingly enough, Tim Schmit followed Randy Meisner (forming member of the Eagles), who in his turn replaced Schmit in Poco at some point.

Did you know the original members of the Eagles (Don Henley, Glenn Frey, Randy Meisner and Bernie Leadon) started the band when at some point they all were singing in the background group of Linda Ronstadt?

I love the Beatles, I'm a huge fan of Pink Floyd, but by far the Eagles remain my favorite band ever.

The only thing that rings a bell is Kermit 'the frog' But thats not for Eagle.

Hotel California and Tequila Sunrise ring ring, Tequila probably for cocktails but Hotel California i can hear the song in my mind now... kinda

Heh
