Re: What songs would make you single album version of Long Road Out Of Eden
I really like Somebody; it has bite to it in the vain the latter two 70s albums did, especially in the sea of country / soft that filled out most of the rest of the album. Along with Witchy Woman it is probably the only Eagles song that play on a straightforward dark, mystic theme; almost like a Holloween song of sorts. I love the 'Calling you home' line too, not classic Glenn but it fits in oddly well.
Most crucially though for me, in addition to How Long and a couple of others on the album, it is also one of the few songs that feel like a traditional Eagles number: guitar-driven, with signature Glenn rhythm, basic (good!) drumming and layers to the vocals: it is easier to visualise the guys performing it than songs like ILTWAWD or It's Your World Now for example.
