You think it's good just sitting in your room, imagine it's the summer of 1977, at 17 and your listening to this song at max on your radio, driving to the beach with friends wearing your favorite shorts and flip flops, not a worry in the world. What memories that brings back at age 64 when I hear it again on your channel.
The Eagles are cherished in the USA! “Take it easy” is just one of the many marquee songs my assignments to you are 1. Listen to all Eagles albums 2 . Watch the History of the Eagles part1and part 2. Rock on
I was 13 years old in 1977. I am so glad I grew up in the 60's and 70's and 80's. It was a Golden age of Music. There were so many great Artists and Music in all Genres, The Artists would cross Genres and write Music and perform with other artists. It was all about the music.
1977... No cell phones back then. And if the Audience held up lighters for every great Song they performed, each person would've had to bring at least 5 lighters, and the Entire Audience would've looked like they were standing in the middle of a constant bonfire. I hope you react to more Eagles songs... you won't be disappointed!
Don Felder was teaching guitar when 13-year-old Tommy Petty came for lessons. Imagine telling them that someday there will be a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and they will both be inducted
70 year old here. We just lived the experience fully. Took it all in and experienced the sheer joy without any distraction. I can still see the pictures of concerts in my head, remember the feeling in my body and the thrill of sharing it with the crowd. It was amazing and it cost about $20 to see some of these great bands. I’m so glad I lived it but I do enjoy watching young people see it for the first time. No auto tune, no studio backing tracks. Just pure beautiful music live on stage.
I was there in January of 2018 lol, and wife and I being typical tourists just HAd to take a picture of ourselves at that corner, 2 college girls happened along, so we took turns taking photos of each other. We're retired. We were just running down the road trying to loosen our load, but that's because we were looking for a bathroom 😂
This is actual music being enjoyed as it should be. It's a bunch of guys on stage playing musical instruments and singing. No fireworks or elaborate sets or a dozen backup dancers and six costume changes while flying from a trapeze. And I loved that you noticed the lack of cell phones. Everyone in that crowd was into the music rather than staring at their cell phones or trying to record music.
there were no cell phones back then and I'm so thankful for that , born in 55 i was privileged to see so much transpire in the 60's -80's till {c}rap took over and killed the music industry as far as I'm concerned.
The music of my youth, so glad to see a young lady enjoying the greatness of the Eagles. This line up is the best version of the Eagles to ever take the stage, fight me.
They had so many fantastic songs and thank you for reacting to a song other than “Hotel California”. It’s a great song but I must have heard it 10000.00 times and nearly every Eagles reaction is that song. So bless you Millie for giving us something else. 🇨🇱🤘🏻😎
I grew up loving this music, I'm also a bass player and learned these songs. I'm 64 and played a lot of the Eagles songs in cover bands over the years. I wish more young people like you could experience the impact this music had on us who were there there. I love your reaction, you get it!
I saw them in the summer of 1977 at Miami baseball park. It was a fantastic outdoor concert opened by Andrew Gold, then Jimmy Buffett did a rousing set with the sun setting and the Eagles closed the show, playing well into the night. Ah, to be young again and still have those great memories, lol!
No click tracks, no overdubs, no auto-tune just killer musicianship. I was at this show at the Capital Centre out in Largo, MD.,USA. The Cap is long gone but the music rings on forever !!!
FOR SMOOTH EAGLES BASSLINES, There's "I can't tell you why", "Love will keep us Alive", "Life in the Fast Lane" and for their Solo Albums, There's "In the City" and "You Belong to the City".
Graduated HS in 1973. College in 1978. The best music ever. I'm glad the "kids" of today love it as much as we did at the time. Eagles have so many more HITS. Love your reactions to this! It's immediately infectious music. Definitely has country leanings too.
I would suggest you sit down, strap in and watch this concert in its entirety. A band full of lead singers at the top of their games. A bunch of dudes that vibed perfectly. I got to see them live twice. One of the best bands live I have ever seen.
I was in grad school when this came out -- it set the tone for the era -- there wasn't any other music like it -- take it easy, lookin for a lover who won't blow my cover. They were peak moments that still resonate. God Bless these guys!
Should check out: Take It to the Limit, New Kid In Town, Lyin Eyes by Eagles, New York Minute Either original Don Henley version Drummer in Eagles), or the Eagles live version. Some other bands/artists to check out: 10cc, Electric Light Orchestra (ELO), The Cars, Air Supply, The Sweet, Yazoo, Human League,
I attended an Eagles concert in 1975 and as I walked into to the auditorium I saw four Cerwin-Vega Double D Horns on the floor in front of the stage. These were the special bass speakers developed for the movie Earthquake. I looked at my buddy and said: "You're going to hear some bass tonight". The bass that night was totally enveloping. Really awesome. One of the most memorable concerts that I ever attended.
Millie, u should have been born in the 70’s like me. I love your “no phone in the crowd” comment. There were no phones up thru 2000. It was a time when everybody was present and the concerts were the best. Plus, the 70’s produced the best music ever.
No cell phones. No computers at home. No internet. If you wanted to learn about something, you went to a library and found books or magazine articles. Hand held calculators were amazing technology. Three network TV channels and a few independent, local ones. No streaming services. You got to see what they chose to show you, when they chose to show it. But we did have stereo music and we loved it!
We lived in the moment. People take so many pictures and record so many videos just to post it and say look at me. There is no way that you go back and view this stuff when you have thousands of videos and pictures. Even with technology, I may take 2 or 3 pictures at a concert then my phone rests in my pocket.
As a musician, you will appreciate this. When I was 16 in late 1970 or very early 71 our band was playing a Saturday night dance at the Unitarian church just a few blocks from the beach in the Los Angeles area (Redondo Beach to be exact) when Joe Walsh wandered in. He was the lead guitarist in this song and was wearing the bandana. He had been in a studio recording one of his many solo albums between the times he played with the James Gang and The Eagles. We were a rock and roll blues band 2 lead guitars, a keyboardist, Bassist (me) and a drummer. He liked what he heard and asked to sit in with us. Of course we said yes and he played 4 or 5 songs with us. Great ego boost for us. The crowd really liked it also. We were good and were headlining at college dances, festivals and even played warm up for a coliseum show. We were too young to play in the clubs serving drinks but for musicians in Los Angeles were working pretty steadily.
they have so many amazing songs. 2 of my faves. Despardo. and what will become your new fave when you hear it, Take it to the limit. (bass player sings lead)
Excellent review because you are so correct. Take a memory if you want, but then put the phones down and enjoy the moment. You won't get another chance to live today, and you're not going to enjoy the video later as much as you can enjoy the moment now. So let go and appreciate what's right in front of you
The Eagles became HUGE in the 70's and 80's. Two more bands that are from the same genre that had great music at the same time but didn't get as much air play would be Pure Prairie League and Poco.
Loved, loved, loved your reaction! This was my time! fun to travel back in time with you - if only for a moment ;-) Other artists that have a similar vide: Linda Ronstadt (Eagles used to be her backing band), Bob Seger, Fleetwood Mac
Millie, I am old enough to have experienced those days and yes, things were very different, but it all depended on each individual person. Some of us were passionate about life and love, and others were not. Some appreciated music and felt it deeply, and others just consumed what they were given. That does not change. It's up to each of us.
Saw them in concert at Crisler Arena when they debut Hotel California (prior to radio release) and dedicated it to their friend Bob Seger. The harmonies these guys had, WOW.
Yeah, I was lucky enough to live through the Eagles albums in real time and they were all over the radio for years. Their early records are just gold start to finish still. Now, the guitar player in this clip is Joe Walsh, who wasn't in the band originally, but he was in other great bands starting in the late 1960's with The James Gang and you should absolutely listen to their songs "Funk #49" and "Walk Away". He also had a big solo career after that with killer songs like "Rocky Mountain Way". But, his contributions to The Eagles, especially in the legendary solo in "Hotel California" were perfect. We almost lost him to drugs and alcohol at one point, but thankfully he made his way out of his addictions and is still going strong. Yeah, having spent a lot of my teenage years at concerts in the '70's - including seeing The Eagles in 1975 - it was a golden time for music.
Back when musicians could actually play the instruments and sing. No autotune back then. I've loved them for 50 years and my morning alarm track is Lyin' Eyes. Never get sick of hearing them.
I would suggest people to look up 4 songs which the Eagles did all by Don Kirshner's Rock Concert 1974 - My fav was Good Day In Hell. Don Felder is just so EPIC playing slide!
I have, actually, stood on a corner in Winslow AZ and seen a girl drive by in a flatbed Ford truck. Yes, the song was going thru my head as it happened. I must have been grinning like a damned fool, too.
I just wanted to say thank you, hello. I have admired you for a while, and today you showed me this. Always been an Eagles fan, but never seen this live version. Thanks 🙏👍 I would recommend Seven Bridges Road
We had to listen to the radio or buy the album and share it with your friends. Nothing wrong with appreciating great music. What's weird is you can see almost the whole concert on RUclips.
This song was co-written by Jackson Browne, who for awhile lived downstairs from Glen Frey. Frey listened to Browne working on the song for weeks, then offered up the second verse (Standing on a corner in Winslow Arizona) and they finished it together. It was the Eagles first hit song. You should listen to some of Jackson Browne's other stuff -- a good place to start is the version of "Running on Empty" from the No Nukes concert in 1979. Also the live performance of The Load Out/Stay from 1978.
Linda Ronstadt's old backup band was pretty good! If you ever visit the area around Flagstaff, Arizona, historic Route 66 runs through the area. The next town east of Flagstaff is Winslow, and right on Rte. 66 they have a park that was inspired by this song. Here are some concerts you might like: The Eagles - Hell Freezes Over Peter Gabriel - Secret World Fleetwood Mac - The Dance Pink Floyd - Pulse Sting - All This Time
Great reaction. It’s fun to watch young people experience the amazing music of my youth. Enjoy. Watch more Eagles, Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Black Sabbath, The Rolling Stones. etc… And NO phones obviously. Just the enjoyment and experience of music in its pure and real form….which is the way it should be.
I love your reactions Millie. Your enthusiasm as you discover new music is a blast. Two songs that have great bass lines are the original version of Little by Little by Robert Plant and there is a RUclips video of the Who performing in Ontario in 1982. The song is Eminence Front. You should check them out.
Fun Fact: Jackson Browne originally wrote this song but was having trouble finishing it and asked his friend Glen Frey for help with it. The finished song became the Eagle's first single. The line about Winslow AZ actually came from an incident that happened to JB but it happened in Flagstaff, AZ not Winslow. And she was driving a Toyota LOL If you ever get that time machine working transport yourself down to Huntington Beach, CA south of the HB Pier, look for the tall kid with dark hair surfing a short board and suffering terminal sun burn :). We can go get some strips & sauce down at the pier and then later I will take you to the Golden Bear on PCH and we can see who's playing there. Trust me, you would be a very popular girl in the late 70's. :)
RE: phones and cameras. I agree, I went to Washington DC in 1960 and took a camera. I took hundreds of pictures. Don't know where they are now and I don't remember ANYTHING about the trip. You have to just take it in. This was live and they are obviously having fun so that makes it look effortless.
They also paved way to the bands like Boston and Journey all though they were very different in style, forming the sort of new wave compared to 70's soft rock.
How did the Eagles find their sound to begin with? Let's give credit to Ricky Nelson and the Stone Canyon band as well...Randy Meisner was Rick's bass player for a while in that band. Gee, wonder where they got the idea to combine country and rock? Rick Nelson did it first. Also Mike Nesmith of the Monkees had his band afterward called the First National Band. And Linda Ronstadt had 3 of the future Eagles in her back up band, set them free to form a band...she knew they had talent. When the Eagles morphed out of the Country Rock Sound, to me they were no longer the Eagles...partially due to Joe Walsh joining the band...they became a different band. Even here the extended guitar solo shows they had changed...there was no solo like that on the studio record.
Eagles are so great and this concert was amazing, check out more: "Take it to the Limit" "Lyin Eyes" "New Kid in town" and more, so good and everyone was a great talent. Everyone could sing and play multiple instruments.
It was more fun being in my 20s in the 70s than being in my 70s in the 20s.
I was in my teens in the late 70's....but I feel you!
With you on that I was born in '53 and have been privileged to spend my life listening to awesome singers/bands and songs. Great times.
I’m 62 and I totally agree with u!✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻Peace out!🫠
Appreciate the sentiment Mr. Walsh, eh hem. ruclips.net/video/GGeGcCfxUcw/видео.html
couldn't agree more and btw , well said.

I'm 61 and right there with you. It was Joe Walsh that said he had a lot more fun being in his 20s in than 70s than in his 70s in the 20s

🔥
the Summer of 1977 I Followed Linda Ronstadt tour 5 state and 6 shows. With friends or just by myself and make friends on way to the SHOW.
no internet or cellphones cameras back then just good times then
First time I saw them was on this tour. Jimmy Buffet opened for them. Perfection.
Best band, most talent ever, they all could sing!!!
1977... No cell phones back then. And if the Audience held up lighters for every great Song they performed, each person would've had to bring at least 5 lighters, and the Entire Audience would've looked like they were standing in the middle of a constant bonfire.
I hope you react to more Eagles songs... you won't be disappointed!
And no bloody autotuners and quantising.
Oh no kidding? No cell phones then? You don’t say.

You HAVE to do “I Can’t Tell You Why” by the Eagles! The bass player, Timothy B. Schmitt, sings the lead…..amazing!!!!
The version from their reunion concert in '94 is my favorite.
They had so many fantastic songs and thank you for reacting to a song other than “Hotel California”. It’s a great song but I must have heard it 10000.00 times and nearly every Eagles reaction is that song. So bless you Millie for giving us something else. 🇨🇱🤘🏻😎

I'm so jealous of people who grew up in the 70s. My mum's stories are always amazing
No click tracks, no overdubs, no auto-tune just killer musicianship. I was at this show at the Capital Centre out in Largo, MD.,USA. The Cap is long gone but the music rings on forever !!!
Pure talent.
FOR SMOOTH EAGLES BASSLINES, There's "I can't tell you why", "Love will keep us Alive", "Life in the Fast Lane" and for their Solo Albums, There's "In the City" and "You Belong to the City".
I saw them on the Hotel California tour. So much talent every song near perfection.

I was 10yrs. Old when this song came out. Must of listened to it 1000x. I wish I would of seen them in concert but I didn't.
Thanks Millie, I have always loved this song but have never heard this extended version.
I would suggest you sit down, strap in and watch this concert in its entirety. A band full of lead singers at the top of their games. A bunch of dudes that vibed perfectly. I got to see them live twice. One of the best bands live I have ever seen.

1977 performance of the Eagles 1972 hit 'Take it Easy'. Joe Walsh on lead guitar joined the Eagles in 1975.
If I remember correctly, the original solo was done by Bernie Leadon.
Eagles have so many good songs. One of my favorite bands ever. Saw them live in 2012
really nice reaction to a great song of the 70s.... thank you....
Saw them 9-28 in Vegas at the Sphere. Incredible experience. The Eagles are top 5 for sure. Lots of fun, and the Eagles kept a smile for 2 weeks .👍
Can't believe I graduated high school that year. Back then if you wanted to take the phone with you you had to unscrew it from the wall first lol.
Should check out: Take It to the Limit, New Kid In Town, Lyin Eyes by Eagles, New York Minute Either original Don Henley version Drummer in Eagles), or the Eagles live version.
Some other bands/artists to check out: 10cc, Electric Light Orchestra (ELO), The Cars, Air Supply, The Sweet, Yazoo, Human League,
Millie the 70's were of awesomeness!
Awesome reaction!!! i was lucky to had seen the eagles live in 2002 fantastic band !! (rip) Glen Frey ..vocalist of this song
Just love the joy you experience with the music.😊
Just LOVE your reaction to these guys. Keep it going. ❤
A classic rock station (WCSX) in Detroit got a corner in Winslow, Arizona, named after Glenn Frey.
A bad day listing to the Eagles is a good day.
Yes I had my best years in the 80s. Times were wonderful
Got your point about the vibe. I was in High School/University during this time and the music was fantastic in this era.
I attended an Eagles concert in 1975 and as I walked into to the auditorium I saw four Cerwin-Vega Double D Horns on the floor in front of the stage. These were the special bass speakers developed for the movie Earthquake. I looked at my buddy and said: "You're going to hear some bass tonight". The bass that night was totally enveloping.

Proved that a band could be super popular and yet be artistic, creative, influential.

Checked out your music and do like it. Good luck with your ventures.
I saw them in London during their Hotel California tour. They were fantastic and I was young 😂.
they have so many amazing songs. 2 of my faves. Despardo. and what will become your new fave when you hear it, Take it to the limit. (bass player sings lead)
one of the best and most influential bands of all time.... also one of the few bands where Each member can be a lead singer outright.
Excellent review because you are so correct. Take a memory if you want, but then put the phones down and enjoy the moment. You won't get another chance to live today, and you're not going to enjoy the video later as much as you can enjoy the moment now. So let go and appreciate what's right in front of you

The first of many great hits
You can still see them! They're doing a residence in Las Vegas. They still sound amazing!
I would suggest people to look up 4 songs which the Eagles did all by Don Kirshner's Rock Concert 1974 - My fav was Good Day In Hell. Don Felder is just so EPIC playing slide!
I have, actually, stood on a corner in Winslow AZ and seen a girl drive by in a flatbed Ford truck. Yes, the song was going thru my head as it happened. I must have been grinning like a damned fool, too.
I just wanted to say thank you, hello. I have admired you for a while, and today you showed me this. Always been an Eagles fan, but never seen this live version. Thanks 🙏👍 I would recommend Seven Bridges Road
We had to listen to the radio or buy the album and share it with your friends. Nothing wrong with appreciating great music. What's weird is you can see almost the whole concert on RUclips.
All smiles on the stage but only couple of years later they were on each others' throats.
I'm 77 now and have to say the best years of music were 1967-1976 .I appreciate your feelings.👍👍
Best Tune ever!!!!!!!
Nice to c u enjoying yourself.
One of my life long goals is to stand on a corner in Winslow Az.
You need to check out Take it to the Limit. vocals off the charts. also, I Can't Tell You Why. the eagles bassists vocals are unreal on both.
This song was co-written by Jackson Browne, who for awhile lived downstairs from Glen Frey. Frey listened to Browne working on the song for weeks, then offered up the second verse (Standing on a corner in Winslow Arizona) and they finished it together. It was the Eagles first hit song.

Millie listen to their other songs from same concert, Lyin eyes, Take it to the limit, New kid in town. All are awesome
I didn’t get to see them till the Hell Freezes Over tour but it was one of the best concerts I ever went to.
Fun Fact: Jackson Browne originally wrote this song but was having trouble finishing it and asked his friend Glen Frey for help with it. The finished song became the Eagle's first single.
The line about Winslow AZ actually came from an incident that happened to JB but it happened in Flagstaff, AZ not Winslow. And she was driving a Toyota LOL
If you ever get that time machine working transport yourself down to Huntington Beach, CA south of the HB Pier, look for the tall kid with dark hair surfing a short board and suffering terminal sun burn :). We can go get some strips & sauce down at the pier and then later I will take you to the Golden Bear on PCH and we can see who's playing there.
Trust me, you would be a very popular girl in the late 70's. :)
Love this group grew up with this!
RE: phones and cameras. I agree, I went to Washington DC in 1960 and took a camera. I took hundreds of pictures. Don't know where they are now and I don't remember ANYTHING about the trip. You have to just take it in. This was live and they are obviously having fun so that makes it look effortless.
Also Tool's the pot has unbelievable bass. It's sick!
Master Lyricists!
I'm kind of missing the banjo on this version that they had in the studio recording. This is one of my favorite songs of theirs.
From their first album. I think it was 1972. I listened to it all the time on 8-track in my car. I was in high school at the time.
One of the Great icons of the70’s!😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
As a bass player you should listen to "I Can't Tell You Why". The singer is the bass player.
The Eagles were an extension of the country/ rock fusion that the Byrds created in the transition from the 60's to the 70's.
They also paved way to the bands like Boston and Journey all though they were very different in style, forming the sort of new wave compared to
70's soft rock.
How did the Eagles find their sound to begin with? Let's give credit to Ricky Nelson and the Stone Canyon band as well...Randy Meisner was Rick's bass player for a while in that band. Gee, wonder where they got the idea to combine country and rock? Rick Nelson did it first. Also Mike Nesmith of the Monkees had his band afterward called the First National Band. And Linda Ronstadt had 3 of the future Eagles in her back up band, set them free to form a band...she knew they had talent. When the Eagles morphed out of the Country Rock Sound, to me they were no longer the Eagles...partially due to Joe Walsh joining the band...they became a different band. Even here the extended guitar solo shows they had changed...there was no solo like that on the studio record.
@@thomastimlin1724 Byrds album Sweetheart Of The Rodeo is often mentioned to be the first cornerstone, when Gram Parsons was part of group.
Eagles are so great and this concert was amazing, check out more:
"Take it to the Limit" "Lyin Eyes" "New Kid in town" and more, so good and everyone was a great talent. Everyone could sing and play multiple instruments.
