There you go again dreamer! Took the words right out of my mouth, or keyboard, I guess! I swear, we must have been twins, separated at birth! :lol:

Brooke, I've always thought it is very possible that we are twins separated at birth. But you are definitely the nice twin! :lol: :lol:
Now, like some of the more 'mature' fans here, I was also around when Eagles was first released. Take It Easy was my very favorite song during the summer of '72. I think it was probably a few months before I actually bought the album. I had no idea what the band looked like or how many members there were, etc. I do remember very well when I got the album, I was anxious to see a picture of the band. To my dismay, I opened it the gatefold to find an upside down picture of THIS:

I remember thinking to myself, well, they may be able to sing, but they sure ain't much to look at!! :shock: :shock:
I'll continue using this scale to rate the songs for all of the remaining albums as we celebrate their anniversaries. Again, I like all of the songs on 'Eagles', but I do think this is one of the band’s more uneven albums, so I have a lot more '3's' than I usually do. :wink: To me about half of the songs are really excellent whereas the other half are just pleasant, but nothing exceptional about them.
1. Take It Easy - 5
2. Peaceful Easy Feeling - 5

Well, I thought I would close out the Eagles LP celebration week by posting one of my favorite pictures from that era. I just think this is adorable. I think the herbs on Don's shirt must have made Bernie very sleepy. :wink:
