OMG, I ENVY you! I could only dream!!!!! They could sing the damn phonebook and make me melt!!!!

True story: I was living in the D.C. area in 1971 when I turned 21. A group of my friends took me out to a club on US 1 in Northern Virginia to celebrate. There was a small stage area and a banner hung above it with the words "Welcome to the Eagles--direct from L.A." We had never heard of the Eagles then--they hadn't yet released an album. Anyway, as we sat there drinking pitchers of beer and my friends toasting me, the Eagles noticed and asked if it was someone's birthday. Everyone pointed at me, and then they sang Happy Birthday to me. Of course, at the time it didn't mean a lot that a band in a seedy club out on HWY 1 would sing happy birthday to someone. That changed when they made it big and I realized it was the same Eagles. It's quite a memory... And this song is one of my favorites.

Not true. Don Felder wrote Victim of Love and was supposed to sing it. Their manager invited him out to a dinner to discuss buisness and Henley recorded the vocals in the studio behind his back. Of course, once Felder heard it, he knew there was no way he could top it, so he let it slide, which is probably what Henley banked on.

I have literally listened to this performance hundreds of times, and get the chills every time.

Every single one of the Eagles sang lead vocals on a song, that's the most impressive thing about them in my opinion. They are a complete band.

For those who are less familiar with the Eagles story this song was their first #1 and a huge fan favorite. Randy Meisner, bass/lead vocal, was always nervous to sing this song, particularly that high note at the end. He had to constantly be heavily persuaded by the other members to do the song every show. In this clip right after he perfectly executes that high note you can see Glenn Frey at the piano looking at him and smiling and signaling to Randy, "way to go man! You nailed it!" while the crowd is cheering. This entire concert is gold.

Not just that they're playing well together - but look at their SMILES. They're LOVING what they do. They know the crowd is waiting for those high notes from Randy and they know he's gonna deliver.

This is one of the best harmonizing bands ever!! I love the Eagles, and this is one of my favorite songs!

The beauty of the Eagles was their diversity of musical talent. They always picked the right singer for the song in hand. It’s pretty rare to have more than one talented singer in a band. To have 4-6 singers (depending on the lineup at any particular time) made them truly special.

They also always had a “clean” sound in concert: extremely loud but everything was crystal clear.

How many, besides me have stood on that corner for a picture?!

this is back in my time. Love Love the Eagles. Thank you for checking them out. I love your rambling about how the music makes you feel.

I was at this concert in 1977. It was amazing!! The Eagles are one of the greatest bands ever!! Check out "WITCHY WOMAN", "Take it Easy", "One of these Nights" and "Peaceful Easy Feeling." RIP Glenn Frey and Randy Meisner.

Eagles started as more of a country-rock band but developed a harder edge as they matured and guitarists Don Felder and Joe Walsh joined the band. But, they incorporated funk, rhythm and blues, disco in some of their tunes. “One of These Nights” has a disco backbeat, but a killer rock solo by Felder and a great vocal by Henley. ‘Lyin’ Eyes “ is a terrific country ballad sung by Glenn Frey. “New Kid in Town” another country-tinged ballad about fleeting fame by Frey. “Victim of Love” by Henley is their hardest material. ‘Best of My Love” by Henley is a bitter-sweet No. 1 ballad from 1975. The band has a deep well of hits. They aren’t the Beatles, but in terms of hits, talent, and sales, they are as close a any American band came.

They aren't the Beatles, correct. So much better they are!

Yes, Wings of Pegasus dissected several of their live performances. The later ones have been pitch corrected but he said this one was not and thank goodness.

The Eagles are masters. Yes so much talent. Excellent performance

Oh wow! The memories. 15 and couple skating to this song. Love the trip down memory lane. Thank you.
