The Eagles' Double Album - The Long Road Out of Eden dropped today at Wal-Marts everywhere. I got my copy. Did you get yours?

It's a double album by the way. I haven't bought a double album since Gun-N-Roses' Use Your Illusion I & II. They were on cassette. I played them until the tape broke on the second one.

Anyway, the Eagles' latest release retains that smooth southern California sound that established the band back in the 1970s. In other words, it's pretty good. The band recorded a lot of slow songs, and there's no equivalent to Desperado on either CD, but it's still nice to have new material from one of the greatest rock groups of the Seventies.
