Eagles fan.

thats how some of them got their breaks bro ..... barry manilow was a backup pianist for some other main act.

Some others too but cant recall at the moment.

Lying eyes.
The band actually started out as backup singers for Linda Ronstadt.
How the hell freezes over album got its name also very funny
 
Most of the Eagles songs come from a time in the 70s-80s when life was simple. I remember going to pubs listening to Hotel california rip-offs from bands such as Tania in Tanglin, having drinks with buddies on saturday nites.
 
mebbe we were there at the same time bro ... Tania ...alban de souza, Zul .....sometimes when i'm a bit far gone i stand on the table and dance when they played the Beatles medley. Almost got chased out a few times.

I went there to Hilton to watch Tania before. What happened to them?
 
Pebbles Bar ? Tania .....dont hear much of them these days. Many of the entertainment places have 'retired ' the older guys in favour of the newer groups from usually Pinoyland.

Older performers like Mervyn Nonis and Joe Chandran ( former Experiments ) have permanently given up. Dudley and Leonard now at Chevy's at katong....all disbanded and dispersed.

Not much future for musicians here.:(
 
ya thats correct....short lived career. The former band 'Dudley and Friends' .....most of them had day jobs .....taxi driver, postman. Then they have to play at night and then sometimes stay back after closing time and practise new songs for their repertoire. Tough life.

Could it be due to our tough laws on drugs that killed our home-grown talents? Composers sometines need inspiration and taking ganja do improve their mental capacities.
 
perhaps so bro....they banned ganja but they banned long hair too....or at least penalised it very heavily. They were very heavy handed and ya ...it could have had an adverse effect on creativity and expression of flair.

No $$$ lah! Same with sports in Sinkeepoo. No money = no talent. No one wants to move into arts, music, sports because they think no money to get. They rather go into finance, banking, business...
 
My favourite Eagles song is "Desperado".
Once I was in a pub in HK where a live band was playing.
I wrote as a request this song on a piece of paper and they played it.
Subsequently, the band was inundated with other Eagles songs like "Hotel California", "New Kid In Town", etc. :D
 
most of their songs are the 'easy listening ' type ..... take it to the limit ....tequila sunrise ... lying eyes. Very nice on the ears even though i'm partially deaf from tony's and clinton's loud abusive voices.

My favorite Eagles songs are Witchy Woman and Tequila Sunrise, not as well known as their signature tunes like Take It Easy and Hotel California.

My favorite Glenn Frey songs are The Heat Is On (from the movie Beverly Hills Cop) and Smuggler's Blues (from the TV series Miami Vice).
 
'peaceful easy feeling' is nice too.
