It was a prolonged account of that golden period of the Eagles, emphasizing their music, which accurately set a style to stay in, and the sheer particular person expertise introduced by the likes of Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Joe Walsh, Randy Meisner, and Don Felder. Amongst them have been some well-known numbers-the ones of Resort California and Take It Simple fame. The accompanying image had two musicians within the studio vibing onerous, fittingly setting the tone for a submit on music dwelling legends.
The feedback? They went a really completely different means. Many followers completely hopped on the Eagles bandwagon. One consumer reminisced, “Ah they have been good, so many reminiscences in these songs,” whereas one other tried to present Joe Walsh props for being the “good eagle.” One different went down the sentimental highway with, “My first actual boyfriend acquired me hooked on the Eagles. I thank him for that.”
Then we’ve… Marcus. Marcus went on, and on, and on-and none of that was concerning the Eagles. Marcus simply went off on Nikki Sixx, Mick Mars, and someway acquired to “Mickey Mouse in a Rock Band” territory. He even requested if Weapons N’ Roses was “on the lookout for a brand new singer”-okay, courageous remark for Slash. One factor he stated is that Eagles “was an American factor, nothing for me,” which, yeah, okay-why remark then?
Different feedback saved it basic with mentions of “Peaceable Simple Feeling,” whereas one other threw Bernie Leadon-a someway absent early member of the Eagles-who curiously was absent from the unique post-into the highlight. A shout-out to the Warriors timeline was someplace within the mix-as Within the Metropolis will endlessly be tied to the legendary closing of that film.
In any case, whether or not nostalgic, fiery, or simply wackadoo, Slash’s submit hit very massive chords within the feedback. Now, whereas the Eagles might be divisive (for a purpose everyone knows and love by now and go by the title Huge Lebowski), one factor did come to be unquestionable; the submit itself proved that music followers WILL loudly voice their opinions.
