Eagles: Hell Freezes Over

I detect that there are still some issues among the band members. It's a pity, because the Eagles are symbiosis personified. While each of them is a fantastic musician, together, they are unbeatable. The interpersonal relationships still seem a bit strained although they say they've forgiven each other. There was a lot of rancor when they split up 14 years previous and it's still not all gone. However, once they start playing and singing, the result is pure magic. Their voice and guitar work is still without a peer. They covered many of their best songs along with some new material that is just as good, in my opinion. I think I prefer an "electric" Hotel California to the acoustic version that they did, but overall, I'd have to rate the music in this concert as among their best, and that is saying something!

I'm only 16, and was never really a fan of 'older' music until my Dad brought this DVD home. Now I'm hooked. The Eagles are fantastic, they definitely still have the magic. My fave is 'Hotel California' and I love 'Pretty Maids All in a Row', 'New York Minute' and 'The Last Resort'.

Very enjoyable Eagles concert, featuring many of their greatest hits, such as "Hotel California", "Life in the Fast Lane", and "Take it Easy". The opening documentary is interesting, but not very informative. My only complaint is that the concert isn't shown in it's entirety as it was performed, as several of the songs are presented out of sequence. So instead of getting an actual feeling of "being there", it feels more like watching a series of music videos. Still, the material holds up and still sounds great. My rating: 8 out of 10.

The 14 year vacation Glen speaks of in this concert has done nothing to dampen their spirits or their quality of music. Collectively their voices are just as strong now as they were in the mid 70's. This concert has captured all the magic that was and still is The Eagles. From the moment they hit the stage, the audience is kept spellbound as you will be when you see this. I would have liked to have seen this concert in its entirety but not withstanding that this is an excellent addition to anyones' music collection. For those wanting to buy a DTS or 5.1 surround sound system this DVD also has a side benefit in that it is perfect for what Digital Theatre Surround should sound like. For me, this is a 10 but then I am a fan.

After a 14-yr 'vacation', the Eagles were ready to Rock'n'Roll, and that is what they did. The BEST rock concert I've ever seen after Pink Floyd P.U.L.S.E, and I've seen over two hundred of them. It represents the peak of their musical playing ability, and the quality of the AV is awesome! Every one of the Eagles coordinate to perfection. Henley's and Schmit's vocals are just amazing. The best thing is that the Eagles keep changing their instruments, in one song, Frey is playing the guitar, in the next song, he's playing the piano... that just proves the Eagles not just their own instrument players, but real musicians! The mood changes so fast, yet it takes you along with it. Hotel California and Heart Of the Matter represents the acoustic genius of the Eagles, I Can't Tell You Why and Desperado show us their soft side, Girl From Yesterday and Tequila Sunrise show their country spirit, while Life In The Fast Lane and Get Over It shows us that they can rock hard as well! EAGLES ROCK!
