I'm also one that likes Learn To Be Still and think it is an underrated song. BUT, it is not nearly as good as Life's Been Good so I urge others to save LBG for a little while longer by joining with me to protect it ...
I cast my vote for Learn To Be Still.

Learn To Be Still
I was asking when and how it was changed. I guess they could have dubbed in a Joe part from another concert recording of the solo.
I have liked SBR since I first heard it on Greatest Hits Vol. 2, but similar to FP I have grown disillusioned by it. This is supposed to be a showcase for their great harmonies but instead it’s a product of studio trickery. Too bad there aren’t any another recordings of it (that I’m aware of anyway besides the 1975 Seattle bootleg).
Still, I don’t want to vote for it yet. I’ve kind of gone back and forth...I also like Learn to Be Still but it’s not up to par with LBG, overdubs or no overdubs. LBG deserves to be in the top 3, imho.
With some reluctance, my vote goes to Learn to Be Still.

Life's Been Good.
I love the song, but love Learn to be Still so much more!
There is a version from the Long Beach concert on the eagles online central it’s under the featured audio show. After listening to that version and the Seattle one, I’m not particularly bothered because I know that they were still so good live and they were being super picky about small details
Well although it put up a respectable fight worthy of a true survivor, the next song to be eliminated in Non-Studio Album Songs Survivor is Life’s Been Good. “Life’s Been Good” lucky you’re sane after all you’ve been through. Its hard to leave when you can’t find the door, but the tribe has finally spoken. So, time to jump in your Maserati and head off the island doing 185.

Seriously, I am just bummed to hear that about 7BR… I'll just go over into the corner and pout now.
