My reconciliation with Classic Rock began roughly 10 years ago when I bought the remastered boxed set of The Eagles 1972-1980 catalog. After The Long Run, there really isn’t any point why Frey and Henley should keep flogging a dead horse but they did briefly re-capture their zeitgeist with “Get Over It.” Listening to anything but the well-known hits alongside personal favorites (“Wasted Time” and “On the Border”) has been the victim of procrastination. I can thank writer Jason Heller for his suggestions. I need to hunt these down on my tunes drive.
I’m also glad he shares my disdain for morons who hate the Eagles because The Big Lebowski told them to.
