“No More Walks in the Wood” is the first song, a beautiful ode to nature, with perfect Eagles harmonies…then, it’s right into the album’s first hit single, the raucous “How Long”: Let’s look at the highlights of “Long Road Out Of Eden!” “Long Road Out Of Eden” was a huge hit, and produced two singles on the Hot Country Songs charts as well as five straight hits on the Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks charts. Then, fans got a big surprise with a massive double album in 2007… So that’s another ‘hole’ - a huge hole in somebody’s life – a child, a wife, a mother, a father, a brother, a sister.” The fighting was supposedly over in May, and yet one or two or three of our boys were – and still are – getting killed every day, which means somebody’s daddy is not coming home.

Then, other things started happening that gave additional meanings to ‘Hole in the World,’ particularly after the war started. “Months went by, but I didn’t show it to anybody. “I sat down at the piano in my home studio and started putting some chords with the phrase ‘hole in the world,'” he said. “Hell Freezes Over” had four new songs along with the live tour material from the late 90’s, and there was the post-9/11 song “Hole In The World”, which Don Henley explained this way: “Long Road Out of Eden” was the seventh and final studio album by The Eagles, released in 2007, and the first new complete studio album from the band since 1979’s “The Long Run”. The Eagles Farewell – 28 Years In The Making… Surprisingly, there isn’t an official Grammy release of this performance, all I could find is one recorded off the screen by a fan: Original Eagle Bernie Leadon performed as well. The Eagles performed their first big hit, “Take It Easy”, on the 2016 Grammy Awards show in honor of Frey, with the song’s co-writer, Jackson Browne, taking the lead. I saw the band in 2013 as they performed their great “History Of The Eagles” tour, and am so glad to have had the chance to see Glenn one last time, and like all fans, was moved by the band’s tribute to Glenn at the 2016 Grammy Awards. I wanted to look at some of the last music they recorded…it all started when I saw them in concert and was reminded of their rich musical history. While they continue to tour with the late Glenn Frey’s son and Vince Gill, “Long Road Out Of Eden” is their recording swan song…

This is a great shot of the band, from the last album they released. The Eagles Swan Song! “Long Road Out Of Eden”! Glenn Frey’s Farewell… Home › 70's Music › The Eagles Swan Song! “Long Road Out Of Eden”! Glenn Frey’s Farewell…
