I missed this thread when it was first started, so I thought I’d go ahead and reply now since it has been revived. I decided to include at least one track for everyone, and I gave Joe two songs. Since this would have been his third album with the band, I figured he had earned it. Even though it was tough, I excluded the tender “love” ballads such as Lilah, The One You Love, I Volunteer, or That Girl since the band didn’t do these kinds of songs back in the day. I guess that Dirty Laundry seems to be the most appropriate name for my album too considering the tracks I chose. I did try to pick songs that I could envision the Eagles performing although some of them are more solo efforts. However, there were times even on some of the 70’s albums that the songs did appear to be more solo than collaborative.1. Dirty Laundry (Henley)
2. She Can’t Let Go (Frey)
3. Life of Illusion (Walsh)
4. Long Way Home (Henley)
5. Gimme the Money (Schmit)
6. All Those Lies (Frey)
7. Nobody’s Business (Henley)
8. All Night Long (Walsh)
9. I Found Somebody (Frey)
10. Heavy Metal (Felder)
11. Talking To the Moon (Henley)
12. Partytown (Frey)

FP, I’m not sure I agree with this comment. IMO, you can’t compare the LROOE effort to what the band put out during the 70’s. There were exceptions in the 70's as I mentioned above where Don and Glenn didn't collaborate, but it was nowhere near as prevalent as it was on LROOE.
