Sorry if been discussed before but been thinking about this today as I put the ipod on Eagles and have just let it play for hours and hours and hours.
I get in the habit of listening to my favorite Eagles songs over and over or I get into a bit of a rut listening to certain Eagles albums more than others etc. Today I decided to just put Eagles on the ipod and let it go and NOT skip any as they come up. As I am listening, there are several songs that have come up that I just don't listen to that much that I am realizing that I've missed or appreciate more than I did 30+ years ago or even 1 year ago. Does that make sense? Of course the last couple of years it's always LROOE and it has always been Long Run as far as albums go. And when the anniverseries of the albums come up and we celebrate them on the board, I will go back and listen just to refresh myself, but to actually LISTEN, it's bringing forward some good stuff that I have forgotten about.
My favorite Eagles songs have always been and always will be Take It To The Limit and Best Of My Love with I Can't Tell You Why right behind them, and with the release of LROOE, Waiting In The Weeds and How Long also ranking right up there at the top. But I get in the rut with the "hits" I think... PEF, AG, HC, LE, OOTN, LITFL, NKIT... you know.
Here's the list of some of the ones that I have heard today and have pledged to listen to more often once again...
Ol 55 (confess--hated this song when I first heard it decades ago)
I Wish You Peace
Outlaw Man
Take The Devil
Pretty Maids All In A Row (I have always loved this-why don't I listen to it more?)
Midnight Flyer
On The Border (again, I always like this-but don't listen that much)
And that's not even touching on any of the solo stuff that I know I also get into a rut with. I have a lot of work to do, I now vow I will bring out EVERYTHING again and give it all a good listen, and who knows, maybe I will rediscover some old forgotten tunes or find some new favorites.
