I'm 79 the Eagles were one of my favorites group.And still are .I'm so happy and glad to see young people hear and enjoy the music I loved and still do.

[@dillonsronce2583]

I'm a young metal head that is obsessed with the eagles and older music, it makes me hopeful for the future when I see younger people finally realizing what great music is. Unlike most of what is made these days.

[@melodyszadkowski5256]

I LOVE seeing young people digging the music I loved at their age! You ROCK, baby!

[@thomasjacques5286]

The entire album is a masterpiece.

[@arby163]

The Eagles were one of the very, very few groups that used 5 part harmony in their vocals. Extremely unusual.

[@ramiromaia592]

That wasn't just a guitar solo it was a double guitar solo two guitars making that unique sound

[@charlestusin274]

The Eagles were amazing. Felder and Walsh turned this into a dance with 24 strings. Freaking amazing. One of my favorite live performances ever!!

[@user-qq1uy8qj6l]

One of the greatest in history according to American Songwriter

[@billc.5861]

Don Henley lead vocals/ drums. Glen Frey acoustic guitar/vocals , Randy Meisner bass/vocals , Joe Walsh lead guitar/vocals & Don Felder double neck guitar lead guitar /vocals Each member in this band was a lead vocalist but the Don Henley & Glen Frey did most of it. Very deep rabbit hole of very good music

[@patticampana9458]

Your young! Check out the 70's, so diverse. Check out Phil Collins live, In The Air Tonight. Hope you do well! Nice to see young people appreciating the oldies🙂✌️

[@bajoyf]

The Eagles before going out on their own were the back up musicians for Linda Ronstadt. You should check her out singing, Blue Bayou.

[@geraldjensen6831]

This is not just "rock"...this is GREAT music. I think even Mozart, Bach, and Beethoven would be impressed...

[@carolbrown605]

I agree 100%. Good music transcends genres.

[@becksullivan4796]

Oh man. Just listen to any Eagles song. So many great musicians and singers in one group. Amazing talent.

[@jmcquown]

I love when you can discover these songs, too! I grew up with this. Listen to the music, the instrumentation, but also the lyrics. This was a creepy story... :) And yes, the lead singer on this one was the drummer, Don Henley. If you want to see another lead singer of a band who plays the heck out of drums, check out Phil Collins version of "In the Air Tonight" live.

[@gingers.5933]

Also Karen Carpenter of the Carpenters.

[@presterjohn9088]

It's always great to see someone discover a new song, band or music. It's such a universal human experience that all of us can appreciate.

[@AlexPoff]

Eagles and Genesis, 2 of the greatest bands of all time, both lead singers play the drums.

[@aaron18811]

I think the Adacab music video has Phil singing while drumming

[@thundernels]

Eagles can be tricky to react to as they are quick to block and strike. This song is so good!

[@RedceLL1978]

They literally have dozens of trawlers who scour the internet looking for videos to strike. So petty and such a shit way to treat people who appreciate their music

[@debbiechang5781]

It doesn’t get much better than this. There’s so much talent on that stage it’s ridiculous! Nice choice. Love your reaction. 🌺✌️

[@karlsmith2570]

4:03 "I've Seen Lead Singers That Play Guitar And I've Seen Lead Singers That Play Piano, But,I've Never Seen A Lead Singer That Plays Drums" They're pretty uncommon, but to be fair, Don Henley, the drummer in this video, isn't the only member that sings Lead, in fact, all of the members of the eagles take turns singing Lead Plus, there's quite a few other bands that have a drummer that sings lead on some songs and here's a few examples: There Romantics on the song "What I Like About You" Peter Criss from Kiss sang Lead on a few songs, such as "Black Diamond", "Hard Luck Woman" and "I Finally Found My Way" Phil Collins became the leader singer in addition to being the drummer of Genesis after their original Lead Singer, Peter Gabriel had left to pursue a solo career

[@raybowman8658]

i was pre teen in the 70's. watching the younger generation react is totally awesome

[@jamesbondbond8388]

You need headphones !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! please

[@Vee1music-lover]

Phil Collins LIVE PERFORMANCE 2004 in Paris is THE video to see! Meszmerizing! Talk about takin’ a trip or out of body experience!

[@DariaBilowus]

The 70's were the best decade of all genres of music.

[@vedantapdx]

The drummer and the acoustic guitar player were to two guys that founded this very, very famous group. Joe Walsh was one of the electric guitar players that played the electric solos. This group was one of the most successful in their era and primarily played and lived in Arizona and the canyons of Los Angeles. If you really want to have your mind scrambled, go check out Gary Moore doing Parisian Walkaway in front of his countrymen in Dublin Ireland. Might be the best guitar performance in the history of rock music, If you do, fasten your seatbelt.

[@matthewcostello3530]

you never heard of the number one selling band of the entire 20th century in the US who have been touring constantly for the last 30 yrs wow you're intelligent

[@cayminlast]

This song brings back memories of my youth. Another amazing artist was "Karen Carpenter" who sang while playing drums, also played many different instruments.

[@user-xl4zf5bk6c]

NOTHING can beat 1970's music!

[@bernie66]

Thank you for enjoying our classic bands and songs. Continue doing this, and you just started your legendary tip thru music and yes we did have great artists and bands in the 60's 70's and 80's. Thanks again, I will continue watching your channel.🫶🎤🎶👍🌟🦅

[@carolbrown605]

My favorite Eagles song. Almost 50 years ago, and it still sounds great. I never get tired of hearing this song

[@MrsCRN_esq]

Love your reaction! I love the Eagles. They are amazing in concert. Don Henley is one of those rare singer/drummers 🩷✌🏻

[@ChadAdkins-hx5zz]

You also have 3 lead singers, Don the drummer, Glen playing acoustic guitar and Joe playing guitar...all three had solo careers with great songs that were awesome.

[@user-mj3pw9sg5n]

Check out The Band. Levi Helm is the drummer and the singer, and they played at Woodstock!! The Band - The Weight

[@mikebourgeois1011]

Thourouly enjoy watching the younger generation discover the music that was the soundtrack of my youth.

[@alexakl6445]

Eagles are one of the top bands of that era and they have a TON of stuff to check out. Another great band who you will love is Lynyrd Skynyrd (check out "Free Bird for starts) and Led Zeppelin (start with "Stairway to Heaven"). As excited as you were to hear this one, you'll have the same feelings over these. Great reaction, young man!

[@marilyn4917]

I enjoyed your reaction Skotty. I feel blessed to have seen them back in the day and also about 10 years ago. We really had awesome music in the 70’s. The Eagles sounded unbelievable in the live performances I saw. I’m so glad you’re enjoying this music. This is my first time watching you, but if you haven’t done so yet, please check out The Doobie Brothers… “Long Train Runnin’” “ Listen to the Music” and many more.

[@williamreynolds6622]

Hotel California is said to be haunted. Most people didn't get the song until they heard it enough to start singing along. Then it hits them.

[@magesentron]

The Eagles really helped change the sound of music in the United States. They added soul-style harmonies to southern rock and blended it with pop and folk in a way that still feels fresh. You can STILL hear the influence of their music in modern artists sampling twangy guitar riffs and using harmonies to transform those into a catchy, hooky pop song. It's funny, I really don't know if we'll ever truly reach the peak of musical excellence that we did from the 60's to the 80's and now that we're firmly heading into the middle of a new millennium, it's astounding that this music still has exactly the same effect on audiences. This is, for me, some of the best music of all time, and that includes everything out there, all the way back into the Baroque period.

[@twofarg0ne763]

Hotel California is about fame and it's excesses. In the 70's CA was the place to make and create music, hence Hotel California. Last guitar solo is one the best in all of rock and roll.

[@Isleofskye]

Thanks, Scotty because I was thinking "PLEASE do not interrupt that solo ending" as it breaks up all the rhythm, momentum, flow, and continuity which is building to a climax but I WAS worried that you were going to do that and I am grateful that you did not. though you did close your eyes all thru' the end guitarist( Joe Walsh) making some really funny facial gestures. lol

[@kathleenfarraher9894]

Love the Eagles

[@Shermanite0623]

I love this song! I wish I had been in the audience! IMO this was Eagles best concert.

[@marcieharreld286]

This album has sold over 32 million copies and has gone platinum 26 times!! Definitely worth a serious journey down their rabbit hole!!!🎶🎼🎵🎹🎤🎧🎸🥁🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥 (please get headphones and turn up the bass!!😉😉😉)

[@sensisensi]

This was a time when Music was Music...

[@marysweeney7370]

Hotel California is a rock radio staple, and has been played for decades. Some of us rock fans have listened to it for just as long And you know, I still enjoy the song as much as I ever did when I hear it.

[@EDMDoc]

Whats mind blowing is everyone in the band sings lead.

[@davidroseberryjr3006]

Bro's ! They are in the Hall of FAME !!!

[@Michael-to6so]

Yeah it's cool when we discover something new for our eyes to see or our ears to hear, our noses to smell or our tongues to taste!!!

[@janiemarshall7928]

🖤🖤🖤

[@CrueHead18]

You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave. Yep.

[@vixybanker]

I don't know how young you are... I was a teenager when this iconic album came out, I remember one of my bestie's mom telling her, "do you know that a colita is a dead body"? It really meant weed, lol my friend told her mom, "so what." I saw The Eagles in '78 in NY. Fantastic!!! What a time it was to be a teenager (the 70's)!!!

[@shunlvswx]

Eagles are an amazing group who's been around for 52 years and still going strong. The drummer, Don Henley. He and the late Glenn Frey (the guy who's playing the acoustic guitar) wrote majority of the Eagles hits. The guy who's playing the Double Neck, Don Felder co-wrote the song with Don Henley and Glenn Frey. Also everybody in the band sing lead on songs even though Don H and Glenn sung majority of their hits. I love seeing Don Henley playing the drums and singing at the same time. There aren't that many singing drummers especially who is the lead singer or co-leader of a band. I can count my hand. Phil Collins (Genesis), the late Levon Helm (the Band), Karen Carpenter (The Carpenters) etc. They were the lead singer of their bands and played drums. You should hear their other songs like Take it To the Limit, Take It Easy, New kid in Town. There are so many great songs you should hear.

[@hopeklemann1]

😊 I've only seen a couple of your reactions so far but I'm really impressed at your curiosity and your perspective and your depth

[@CozzyKorner]

They have so many amazing songs!

[@roberthamlet4613]

The only other band that comes to mind where the lead singer is also the drummer is "Night Ranger". You should check out their song "Sister Christian".

[@kathleenlowe3349]

Stevie Nick's is the Woman in the song. The Hotel was a recording studio in Laurel Canyon . Stevie was who they were dancing to forgot. The Beast was Cocaine.

[@marilynrigsby6874]

Biggest 70s conversation about what is the hotel.. could be heaven or hell😂

[@bobbyquinting3918]

The album and its tracks were nominated for five Grammy awards in 1978, winning two; Record of the Year for the title track and Best Arrangement for Voices for "New Kid in Town". But wait! -there's more! LOL...."Hotel California" first entered the Billboard Hot 100 chart dated February 26, 1977, and topped the Hot 100 singles chart for one week in May 1977, the band's fourth song to reach No. 1 on that chart

[@jimbro5223]

Another performer who both sings and plays the drums is Karen Carpenter of the duo "The Carpenters". It's a sister/brother duo. She could SING and was also a very good drummer.

[@rickaddington9639]

carpenters, rainy days will blow mind into atoms.

[@victorramsey5575]

You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave. Basically the only way out is in a bodybag, and the sad part is you'll do it to yourself. Drugs, alcohol, women, gambling, etc... a prisoner to your vices.

[@jeffjones6221]

Eagles was a great group. Need to check out Joe Walsh (the guitar player here with dew rag) he was James Gang and a solo career prior to joining the Eagles.

[@tonyhomant244]

Proof positive that Gibson and Fender always sound good together.

[@noplacelikehomecrochet5335]

Kansas- Carry on wayward son is a great song with great instruments the official video ❤ 89 million views

[@carnivoroussoupspoon]

The Band is another one were the drummer is the lead singer...and they are awesome!!

[@Thetequilashooter1]

Man, this song brings back memories. This song is legendary.

[@brendastanford9545]

I turned my son on to all of this music. When he was very young, he is now 44. How many needs a hookah? But I also turned them on to James Brown. Others Redding and many others.

[@littlebutohwow]

First concert I ever went to. It was 1976 and I was 15. What an introduction to concert going! ❤❤❤

[@stinky60096]

If there is ever anything positive to say about social media it is to share knowledge of amazing music and artists. So happy you are open to new experiences. The Eagles are in my top 5 bands of all time!

[@lancevaughn432]

When you said you don’t interrupt guitar solos, I subscribe,

[@hadrenspicer9035]

Don Henley drums.don Felder 12string.joe Walsh tythum guitar Glen fry acoustic guitar.randy meisner bass. Maybe the greatest group of talent on stage at one time ever.all were great musicians.all were great singers.all had their own careers separate from the group

[@kathleenfarraher9894]

They still tour

[@michaelschroeck2254]

Want to see awesome double neck guitars in action? Watch the live version of Rush’s song “Xanadu” from their exit stage left tour.

[@jpemberl]

you need to watch Phil collins in the air tonight. As he is a drummer and singing !

[@amycrouch3439]

Musicians, talented musicians 😁

[@matteoedwardes2876]

Gotta deep dive The Eagles now.

[@bobbyquinting3918]

Don Henley, drummer for the Eagles, sang lead on many of their hits. Karen Carpenter of The Carpenters was, surprisingly, their drummer. The Monkees' Mickey Dolenz was both their drummer and one of their lead singers. Levon Helm, of The Band, sang as well as played drums. Elton John was in fact a drum player, but he was not very skilled.

[@blankmike4613]

Phill Collins is a singing drummer. Some nice hits there. good episode, dude. LA out.

[@Pierre50mm]

Young man, from the 60's to the 80's, pop music went to an incredible musical creativity. Real musicians, real singers and composers. Now, pop music is so mean and so copied-pasted sounding all alike.

[@esc0bert]

Probably one of my favorite guitar "solos" ever.

[@Chessindio777]

I was in high school during this time. Eagles were great! But this song is about the largest satanic church in this country and maybe in the world at the time. Many of the actors, bands and singers went there. Anton Level was the high priest, the woman at the door was the high witch. You could not enter unless she aloud it. The candle at the front door was always lit. In the song "you can enter, but you can never leave "

[@j.woodbury412]

There's probably a good reason you don't see many lead singer/drummer combinations. You have to be very coordinated. I'm not a drummer, but I know you're not just using your hands, but you're also using both feet to play the bass drum and the high hat cymbals. That's hard enough, but then you add singing to all that. That can't be easy. So, my hat goes off to Don Henley (The Eagles), Kelly Keagy (Night Ranger). Peter Criss (Ex- Kiss), the late Karen Carpenter (The Carpenters- the only female singer/drummer I'm aware of) and any other singers/drummers I missed.

[@davidstephan5116]

If I’m not mistaken, I think the Eagles had multiple singers. Don Henley, Glen Frey, and Joe Walsh.

[@RudyCota-fc8qw]

This song is about Norcal state penitentiary in Southern California

[@trishriley9681]

❤

[@albertwhitehead4849]

Probably the greatest guitar playing ever!!!!!

[@chaunapierce8678]

You know back in the 70s probably early 80s the musicians were so magnificent. There was so much feeling put Ealing put into these songs and the best parties and most of them you can understand the words. I feel bad for you guys that are coming of age now and your future because the music now is being so electronically produced that I don't think you're gon to have any really good musicians in your future. So enjoy

[@siannarino]

THESE GUYS WERE ONE THE "BEST EVER" GROUPS!!!!

[@jeanine6328]

the only singer I know of that also plays drums if Phil Vollins, he’s amazing. Check out his Sony In the Air Tonight. If you want some mind blowing music, you must check out Pink Floyd’s song Comfortably Numb. Also listen to Led Zeppelin’s song Kashmir. One think to help you fully enjoy Pink Floyd or Zeppelin, you don’t ‘listen’ to their music. You experience their music. It’s a sit back close your eyes and let the music take you kind of music. I think that’s the best way I can explain it. There are no other bands who’s music I feel that way about, and I’m not alone in that.

[@danaleestephens1686]

Great reaction young man eagles were awesome group

[@rockerforlife194]

On a double neck guitar the top is a 12 string and the bottom is a 6 string. Nice reaction my Man. PS: The 1960s, 70s, and 80s brought us the greatest rock and roll music of all time. Period. The 1950s as well.

[@SantiagoTM1]

When they broke up, the World stood still.... Each of them went on to form their own musical HOF musical careers. Follow them all & U'll not regret it. U'll also thank me later.

[@cartuspostus1150]

If you listened to the radio you would have heard this song long ago.

[@maryannbain8011]

Greatest ✌️😎

[@kellydavis4571]

You need to stay in their Rabbit Hole!!! Great group!!

[@karenpowell6063]

🔥🔥❤️❤️

[@sopwithpuppy]

Yes, a drummer who sings is rare. Sometimes they can miss one beat or use an interlude during a track to reach behind and pull a microphone around for a chorus as backup, but unless VERY strategically placed, it gets in your way as you're trying to play. These days it's a lot different with wireless microphones, but you'd understand why it was historically rare "back in the day"

[@Muddywatersist]

Haha the Ducks kicked Ass.

[@jwoodard29]

Try The Eagles "New Kid in Town" from the same concert. More brilliance!

[@dougoneill7266]

Good stuff. Get yourself some decent big old headphones mate. you'll appreciate it.

[@eumaeus]

A great reaction. Buddy, get yourself a decent pair of headphones and perhaps a DAC. You see, you are missing so much playing through your computer's speakers. This doesn't apply to just this song, but most music.

[@truckinfool3550]

Check out Those Shoes, I recommend the Live Millennial version or live at The Forum.
