Eagles - Take It Easy (LIVE) 1977 (REACTION)

[@Phrankster163]

[@eddiehaskell1957]

Sorry about your leg. Joe Walsh was my favorite with the Eagles. When he left he really stood out. He was known as the Clown Prince. I have an album of Joe Walsh you might know; YOU CAN TUNE A PIANO BUT YOU CAN'T TUNE A FISH. How can anybody not love this guy. I hope you saved his autograph. I hope your life is good.

[@danielturner9832]

The original Eagles sound was the best sound.

[@AIMarketingFunnels]

I attended the Eagles' concert at Texas A&M on November 4, 1972, even though I was only 8 years old. My brother Michael was a freshman at A&M and part of the entertainment committee that booked the Eagles. My parents said, "Let's go see this event that Michael is involved with organizing." Initially, I resisted, but had to go. Funny how things changed when Glenn Frey put on his sunglasses and they started playing "Take it Easy." I was like, "I know this song!" Meanwhile, my dad was saying, "It's too loud, we need to leave." Haha.

[@douglashowser3429]

The Eagles were, IMO the greatest band to come out of the seventies and they never wrote a bad song! Their vocals added a whole new band to the mix much like the Moody Blues and Crosby Stills Nash and Young! They still have the all time record for all time sales of a greatest hits album that will probably never be surpassed!

[@BRNRDNCK]

The only reason I can agree with that is because LZ started in 1969 lol

When i left my ex wife that song i played that help me get over her. 17 years later and she is in the same b.s. as she was when I took the kids and went on our own. Due to the drugs i dont think she'll ever get to the same conclusion. Sad...
