For the Eagles in the prime: The Last Resort. For newer Eagles: Waiting in the Weeds. Why the Eagles were never credited for The Long Road Out of Eden must have been due to limited advertisement and distribution. Some of the music on this disc is IMO the best things they ever did.
In Memory of Glenn Frey...Favorite Eagles song?

rlawry...I don’t understand your comment of, "the Eagles were never credited for The Long Road Out of Eden?" It was their album and they wrote it. Did you mean it wasn’t as popular? For the first year, it was only available on their website or at Walmart and Sam's Club. But still: From Wikipedia: The album debuted at #1 in the U.S. and won the band two Grammy awards for "How Long" and the instrumental "I Dreamed There Was No War". The album became the band’s sixth #1 album and was the highest selling album of the year. It has since sold 3.5 million copies in the U.S. alone. Being a double album with length exceeding 90 minutes, the album was certified 7x Platinum by theRecording Industry Association of America for shipments of 3.5 million discs. I agree, it’s a GREAT album, but IMHO, they got lots of accolades for it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Road_Out_of_Eden |
