I was the same way with the Eagles. Couldn’t stand them when I was young also a hard rock fan. It didn’t help their music was overplayed on the radio and my best friend was a huge fan as well.
Then about 15 years ago I watched a documentary and realized how good they were. Love them now.
Yeah, I became a fan of them
(for a little while) when they
"changed their minds" and HELL Froze over!
The tour. LOL
Kinda always felt
Henley and
Frey's egos could fill the
Goodyear blimp with hot air. They really let it show
and told on themselves about the way they felt towards all other members on the
History of The Eagles
documentary. I watched it and then realized...... Ok, The Eagles band was supposed to be a solid tight knit
group of friends/guys, a band of "limited"members down thru all the years. Seemed to me it took all of them
to succeed.
YET in the documentary ONLY
Henley and
Frey have a portion of the story dedicated to themselves....
***? So someone? deemed those two bags of hot air the ONLY members whose life stories needed
to be told and the other life long members apparently did not matter enough to be acknowledged or
told about by the
Egos as some call Henley/Frey. Granted they did put out countless good albums and
numerous radio hits that will be played into eternity.
