from a bootleg. Snapshot of a classic rock band at the height of its powers. in tune run through of the chord progression before the fantastic lead guitars added.
I had this song set in the car to play when I picked up my son from the hospital after he was born. I made damn sure New Kid in Town was going to be the very first song my son John would hear in his life!
That is awesome! What a great song to bring your son into this beautiful world! When my grandson James was born, the first song he heard was Sweet Baby James. Music is everything…
Don Henley has a fantastic feel on the drums. He’s laid wayyyyy back on the snare, and it never falters. Love the subtle hi hat splooshes on the four count too. His control of the duration of those hi hat figures is just perfect. I heard Don say in an interview something to the effect that he didn’t play drums well enough or know enough about drums to do an interview on the subject. But he’s wrong about that…,or at least he’s wrong about the playing part. He was knocking out incredible song after incredible song and he could repeat them live. If he struggled playing a perfect drum track in the studio if sure didn’t show in his performances. So many musicians spend at least some amount of time searching for the perfect tempo where the song likes to live, then they play a live gig and stray from the perfect tempo they had considered so carefully in the studio. I’m a drummer and I’ve had this discussion with damn near every guitar player and some vocalists about, “it’s always good to bring the tempo up when playing it live.” and I just shake my head. There’s a phenomenon that occurs when playing music wherein many people hear it differently than when they’re a passive listener. It has to do with the nebulous concept of listening to yourself and the rest of the instruments playing with you as a passive listener while you’re actively playing the music. Listening to oneself whilst simultaneously playing the very sounds one is listening to is a skill that can take years and years of practice to develop, never mind master. Some people are born with it, sometimes very acutely, while others never do get it down. Dave Weckl is one of the most revered and respected drummers in the history of the instrument, and he has a catalog of instructional videos wherein he addresses the subject. Drummers have some unique challenges inherent to the instrument, and one of those challenges is in developing four way limb independence to play the equivalent of four individual parts traditionally scored for separate percussion instruments. Right along with that independence comes the necessity to “mix yourself behind the kit as you’re playing”. There should be a symbiosis of dynamics among the limbs and corresponding instruments. It’s harder than people realize to simply raise your right hand from quarters or eighths on the hi hat to hit a crash cymbal and maybe a tom tom and slip right back onto the hi hat with no discernible distortion of the time feel, nor dynamics. Coming back in on the hi hat perfectly in time, meaning “on feel”, not necessarily on gridded metronomic time, as well as with dynamic and tamboric consistency, requires skills that are damn near a gift from God. “Thought is the enemy of flow.” -Vinnie Colaiuta- To achieve and maintain a consistent flow of the pulse, thought has to be very focused on the pulse so no person listening closely to the tempo can sense a change. Dave Weckl and Don Henley have most definitely mastered the skill. Drumming is hard, my friends. Singing and drumming at the same time feels absolutely impossible until the senses catch up. It’s very difficult, but it’s also very doable. Don plays his live tunes at damn near exactly the same tempo as you’ve heard a thousand times in a thousand different places. Yeah, his songwriting is amazing, but his singing…it’s so good that words fail to do it justice. His feel is perfect, his inflections are spot on, and his otherworldly ability to create and sing the ultra high alto harmony lines is proof that he has mastered just about every aspect that’s important in playing the role of the drummer, lead vocalist and supporting harmony vocalist. My God I love music…👍
…I recently watched a video of The Band from 1970 doing The Weight. I think I can say with confidence that Don took his cue from Levon. Very much similar styles.
@@luvbasses5487 I could get behind that. Levon was the epitome of extraordinary on the drums. I’ve never heard another person play like him that wasn’t influenced by him. Don had a similar intention to his playing, I think. You didn’t get a lot of flair with either Levon or Don, but when they spoke up it was clear and obvious. Don’s playing on Those Shoes still knocks me down every time I hear it. What a fantastic performance. And his little drum fills at the end of Heartache Tonight are about the closest thing he ever played to a drum solo.
…the hi-hat work alone, demonstrated on Shoes is a study in itself. Every musician should pay close attention to it - It doesn’t bother any that we don’t get long solos from Don. If we want those, we know where we can find em from others. Don has the golden throat and legendary songwriting abilities. That’s plenty for me to process!
@@luvbasses5487 excellent point regarding the hi hat performance. Don’s right hand is very sure and solid. I love how that entire song is organized and orchestrated. The off kilter rhythms he uses are a great touch to add tension in keeping with the brooding tone of the lyrics. A simple displacement of the backbeat every two bars adds the perfect motion to the strict, regimented hi hat and bass drum pattern. I really dig how the section changes are so anticipated, just waiting on the guitar to finish its thing. Joe Walsh shines all over this piece. His genius is on full display, from his guitar tones, to the stiff, angular stabs of sound as there’s so much space between the notes in his phrasing. I love the way they use space in this tune to create the daunting vibe, and it’s such a brilliantly executed performance all around. Joe’s solo is absolutely stunning to me in how he says just the right words, and leaves room to absorb them afterwards. He phrases this so flawlessly, I can’t even find the right words to describe what I mean. From the very beginning of his solo, the way he barges into the space with that riff so confidently and well stated, and it continues in that conversational manner, with the ups and downs of his inflections perfectly outlining the framework of the theme….I can’t say enough about how the guitar solo catches my attention, and has done for all these decades. And Don is right there with the hi hat, bass drum and snare foundation, setting up the transitions with his perfectly sparse drum fills. They make the whole kit sound enormous. I’ve always loved that flat, thick tone he got from his toms. Can’t forget his cymbals either. I think I hear a China type, but I’m never sure. Anyway, there are a dozen different aspects of this one song and how great it’s recorded that I could go on about. And I also agree on the drum solo thing. I’m rarely impressed by drum solos, I’d rather hear really great parts in the tune itself.
This is The Eagles finest moment ever. God bless JD Souther for writing this remarkable ballad. (his own version from “Natural History” is equally splendid. Indeed, Don Felder had a singular and signature feel for guitar, and was far and above one the best performers of his time.
Me too. Eagles so tight with outtakes and alts. The rest of this bootleg is .. meh.... tho theres a really really rough Hotel California w/o any of the great guitar solos
The Eagles the very band that inspired me to become a country gospel singer songwriter to me they had a sound no other band had and their harmonies and guitar work is timeless and legendary love this I guess you call it warm up session again would like to thank Don Henley and the late great Glenn Frey and all of The Eagles for all of the wonderful music over the years and hope if Youall can will tour and come back to North Carolina next year would love to see you guys your legacy will not be forgotten RIP Glenn Frey take care.
@@ufohead1 ...yes agreed, so very well done to you for accessing and sharing this...I find it fascinating to hear material like this, gives an outsider such a refreshing and interesting take on this great band [especially given how rare this is]...onlly thing better would be if there was some visual as well...kudos to you and thanks for sharing...anything else similar would be brilliant
@@ufohead1 don't tell 'em about my cover of "saturday night"!! i need that 4 dollars!! although bernie really liked it...i got to play with his brother tom (RIP), and he sent it to him. what an honor to know those guys listened to it. bernie and randy were the backbone of that band IMO...
The Eagles with don Felder made some amazing music not a put down on Bernie Leadon not whatsoever He is an amazing guitarist himself and I love his time with the Eagles too.
Bernie fit the more country rock sound of the early Eagles while Don and Joe Walsh were better fits for the more rock influenced Eagles years. Glen was a disciple of Detroit rocker Bob Seger.
now that you mention it the whole drum sound is great. The 1980's ruined the sound of a natural drum kit, we're starting to get it back with the indie and Americana musicians, anyway
it is the way recording studios are built today that causes the difference in the way drums sound today when compared to earlier times. phil collins has been trying for years to replicate the old sound.
@@ricmarc7156 Today's engineers don't know how to make drums sound like drums. They're layering in artificial and sampled drum sounds and in many cases removing the original recorded drum sounds completely from the mix. WHY?!? The whole job of recording has just become an ordeal and trying too much to achieve perfection in the performance meanwhile losing all sense of of believability, emotion, and spirit of that performance Bring back humanness to music!!
Creating and then re-visits are the best. Just like going to your fave recipe and thinking “ you know I’m gonna add 4 twigs of Rosemary to the bread this time” ahh just right!

@@davidmurphy5647 While not my favorite albums of theirs as well, with bookends of Hotel California and Last Resort and a ballad in the middle like Wasted Time, it can not be considered that overrated. Three pretty darn great songs right there.
Singers and players all - from a now bygone era. Mid to late 70s were a special and weird time for music and fashion but spectacular product emerged, nonetheless.
@@freebirdtony What part of Fort Lauderdale? I immediately thought Fort Lauderdale but I can't figure out where? I'd venture to guess not a single building is standing 45 years later.
The FAB 4 was often called the FAB 5 with George Martin being #5. Individually, the band and George were very talented. Collectively, they made Musical Magic that will last forever......
There's actually a lot of Beatles in this. The drums are the most un-Beatle-like part. Pretty cool to hear this for what's possibly considered a perfect song.
This is a beautiful song, the way it was recorded on "Hotel CA", but I'd like to have heard a rehearsal recording of Meisner singing lead, with Henley's background harmonies. IMHO, I always thought Randy's voice was more appropriate for this one, though if any recording existed; then "D&G" would have made certain that it never turned up anywhere, like this has.
I don't think is gets any more perfect than the official recording and mix of this song. Meisner's magic moment on Hotel California is Try and Love Again. There are other recordings of that (by him solo) that are amazing and hard to find.
Cue the whining about Felder. Nobody cares except the millions of fans who bought his solo albums. You know, the ones people will be listening to fifty years from now.

Let's also give John David Souther the credit for writing most or possibly all of the song's beating heart.
Just hearing the music as it’s being developed is a treat. Beautiful.
Felder's fills and licks are absolutely beautiful. Every member of the band was at the top of their game when this album was made.
