2016 claims another soul

Nobody cares about The Eagles

It's sad he had to witness that terrorist attack just before his time came, I wonder if it was a factor?

2016, the year music decided to just die.

He's in that big Hotel in the California now ;~)

Eagles were way above and beyond the talent of Bowie desu

The Eagles were shit anyway who cares

Heard about this on the way to work

Fucking rip in peace

>>61859075
You shut your dirty whore mouth.

Requesting a pin from mods and Life in The Fast Lane board music.

>>61859218
This is just the beginning of the time when that generation of musicians is getting old enough to die off.

it was authentic music imo.

The older I get the more the Eagles seem to appeal to me. I can't fault their song-writing, it truly timeless

Get the fuck out of my cab!!

RIP man. The first four years of Eagles is some of the best country rock you could imagine. I'm not big on the later rock stuff from Hotel California on, but I respect Frey as a real fuckwit who delivered good music.

>>61859766

Related: comfy country. Gotta love that Bernie Leadon lead.

RIP anyway

"The Heat is on" was fun

I hate the fucking Eagles man!

>>61859185
Colitas is Spanish for "little buds". He's singing about weed.

sad to hear, but fuck Hotel California, for some reason the dutch think it's one of the best song ever made, it's fucking stupid

The Eagles made boring music for boring people. I really could not care less that one of them died.

Are you sure you aren't just a sociopath? Because I'm pretty sure you are.

>>61860527
Nope, I just really don't like the Eagles. They're the definition of bland, tasteless music for boring white people.

>>61860602
Then get out, nigger.

>>61857452
So many deaths...

>>61860625
Bro Im as white as white gets. I dont even like hiphop.

Agreed. It reminds me of a fun time in my life. :)

>The older I get the more the Eagles seem to appeal to me. I can't fault their song-writing, it truly timeless

Not really no. Actually their albums were very rooted in the 70s and have not aged that well if you scratch under the surface.

There is no such thing as truly timeless music anyway; it all sounds like its era, even classical.

You have to be 50 years old and drive a pickup truck to appreciate the Eagles,

>>61860149
You do know the average life expectancy of rock stars is about 63 versus 76 for a typical white male.

>>61859766
Ok, yeah. The first three albums are straight country rock/bluegrass (Don Henley's Texas upbringing no doubt having a lot to do with it), but then they switched to a more commercial stadium rock sound on One Of These Nights which caused Bernie Leadon to accuse Henley and Frey of being sellouts, so he quit the band in disgust.

Hey, it worked, didn't it? After changing sounds they became the biggest band on the planet and their singles literally printed money.

>>61860972
The first three albums are pretty timeless, if you mean the more commercial post-1974 stuff, that's definitely dated.

>>61859253
lmao

>>61860344
Hotel California is a song that you can tell the band were trying so, so hard for an epic but they didn't have the talent to pull it off and it sounds incredibly cheesy at points.

Not the first or the last time a band's musical ambitions exceeded their playing/arranging skills.

>>61859216
Not anymore, it isn't.

>>61861105
Henley and Frey were always huge douchebags convinced that everyone in the band other than themselves are irrelevant hired help. It's just like with Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley. "The two of us are Kiss, the other guys are just disposable plug-in musicians."

No, they just wrote a song for two guitar players, that's it.

who?

>hear NKIT as filler music when I called a tech support hotline for something

Yeah fuck that shit. Their songs were ok for that time, but they're dated and the message of them no longer relevant. Let it go already.

Was just listening to Take It Easy and that song isn't dated at all; nothing in there sounds like 1972. If you mean the later stuff like Life In The Fast Lane, yeah that conjures up images of Quaaludes and wood-paneled basements.

>>61863065
Witchy Woman is more dated mostly because of the guitar tone (electric guitar always dates a lot more than acoustic).

I always kind of preferred Henley's voice to Frey's.

Ok I'm going through the first album.

>Chug All Night

Trucker music.

What's your favorite Eagles song, /mu/? Acoustic country ballad or boogie woogie cruising down the highway rocker?

>>61860671
I'm ready

End of story.

Honestly, I'm sick and tired of Redditors and meme-spewers bashing the Eagles because le ebin Big Lebowski told them to. The truth is...hear this guys...hear this.....

THE EAGLES AREN'T THAT BAD. Everybody talks about them like they're abysmal and unlistenable and shit, and THEY'RE NOT. They're a simple, inoffensive soft rock band who are nothing special, overrated by middle-aged women and pretentious "le wrong generation"/"classic rawk" teens a bit, and THAT'S THAT.

Hell, I like some of their songs. "Hotel California" actually is kinda intense. Like, when I was younger and listening to that song on classic rock radio, I thought "This is some haunting shit". The hook is annoying, but still. "Tequila Sunrise" is a nice country ballad with a good melody, too.

Sure, saying that Hotel California is one of the greatest albums of all time is like saying Chester Arthur is one of the greatest presidents. He didn't stand out, but was he that offensive?

THE. EAGLES. ARE. NOT. THAT. BAD

>>61863325
Take It to the Limit. I can't explain it, but I'm a sucker for bassists on lead vocals. It's just a little irrational perk.

>>61857452
RIP Glenn.

Face it, nobody here cares that much about Eagles. And even those who do surely understand this just isn't an environment for them.

Real players. No auto tune, midis. Talented people making music without a computer assist. Respect.

the eagles were shitty as fuck though

>>61867943
Well, you gotta be 50 years old and drive a pickup truck to appreciate them...

>>61857452
If the Eagles were even remotely good I might have felt sad

But I don't. What a shame

Lebowski was a terrible movie and redditors are retards, but if you think the Eagles were a good band then we've reached the peak of faggotry of the delusional apologists that crawl out of the woodwork everytime a shitty musician dies

RIP
I learned how to play Hotel California, solo and all, when I was first learning how to play guitar about 12 years ago
RIP, thanks for helping me become a better guitarist

>>61870856
Except all music is terrible because all music fans on the internet are annoying faggots.

>>61871401
Simple and inoffensive. Did you read the post?

>>61871401
I'd love to see what would happen if Dave Coverdale or Kip Winger died. ;)

It's not "simple and offensive", it's retarded and offensive to actually good musicians.
