Life's Been Good
Life's Been Good
Understood for One Day at a Time. As for LBG, it was performed in the Hotel California Tour regularly in the USA. They did not do it for foreign venues though. It was apparently done at the Capital Center, Knoxville, Alpine Valley Music Theater, amongst others. Always close to the encore.

I don't understand the dislike for Learn to Be Still...it's a beautiful song and it has great lyrics that for me at least have been applicable to my own life. It's better than the repetitive Hole in the World.
However, I vote for Life's Been Good
I like the song too, Groupie. My vote is also for Life's Been Good.

Yesss!!!! Finally somone recognizes my comments! Yes, Eagles Live is such a fraud for a live album! Thanks
And yes, SBR is overdubbed to make it as "perfect" as can be. To use Henley for Frey's parts is just not right. I kinda understand the logistics part and all, but still. What's even worse is that the Santa Monica bootleg which I have contains a brilliant version of SBR as good as the released one. Why couldn't they have used that? The stuff they do...
And for LBG, piano and certain drum fills and guitar parts were changed from what was done. But the best proof is the change in lyrics. The hilarious lyrics of "They write Tim letters, tell Glenn Don's Great" were overdubbed. The normal ones were sung originally.
What Eagles Live basically is is a series of re-recorded album songs. Not really live per se.
So I urge everyone who has to vote:
SAVE GENUINE SONGS!
VOTE OVERDUBBED RECORDINGS!!

With that all being said, now:
I vote for Seven Bridges Road (Steve Young cover)

Interesting stuff here! I didn't know about all this overdubbing!
And I like LTBS too!
I will vote again for Life's Been Good.

I don't wish to flog a dead horse, but those carefully placed audiences reactions in 7BR - are they dubbed too? I am thinking about the one after 'time sweetened honey' & I think there are a couple of others. I always liked Glenn's intro, the way he says 'I hope you like this' & his 'thank you' at the end. But I now find it meaningless. Anyway...
Regarding LTBS it has been very helpful to me as an individual, but I understand the criticism of it.
I vote for Life's Been Good.
