Personally, I wish Henley, Walsh and TBS had followed their original instincts , thoughts and feelings and not given in to demands from anyone or anything to record or perform live under the Eagles banner.
Not then. Not now. Not ever. But that's not what happened.
As i said earlier, I do plan to buy the CD but I am not pleased with Henley, TBS and Walsh recording under the Eagles name and can't help but feel betrayed and exploited. That's on them they had other options.
For me it comes down to honoring Dan Fogelberg and supporting the life saving goals/objectives of the Prostrate Cancer Foundation in spite of the Eagles, not because of them - and that is a painfully sad commentary.
