Hell Freezes Over: Both Nights

[DJ]

I can remember being so excited when this aired. I about wet my pants! LOL

[sodascouts]

I had only a vague notion of who the Eagles were and didn't know who had been in the band until I saw a commercial for HFO. I knew Don and Glenn from their 80s hits. I actually went "Glenn Frey and Don Henley are in a band together? Wow, that must be some band!" I watched it!

Soda, that's funny! You youngins!

I love the Second Night. I don't know if there is a polished version of it, but the one I have heard has a lot of space in between songs, and quite a bit of dead air and a couple false starts.
The second night also has Don butchering the lyrics to "Get Over It" and then uttering "Well, I f----d that up, but we're gonna move along and do the next tune"

This rare version of "Peaceful Easy Feeling" was not included on 'Hell Freezes Over' due to guitar solo or string buzz at 7:07 (song begins at 3:30)

I do hear a bit of a "twang" on that note but it hardly seems a good reason to drop such a good version.

I agree UTW - I listened to the HFO version of PEF again today and heard only a slight noise (which I wouldn't have known about if Jack Tempchin hadn't mentioned it) but it was nothing that should have caused them to drop that brilliant version.

This is some of the best Eagles harmonies I've heard - even after the 14 year vacation!!

I wondered why they didn't include it. I agree, Lacken, it it a brilliant version. I wish they would play it sometime.

Nowadays they could fix that "twang" in a couple of minutes, if it really needs fixing.

Lover's Moon is the track I listen to most, as it's the only place you can find an Eagles version of it. I always thought that that didn't make the cut as the first note was a bit untidy. I prefer Lover's Moon to the 4 new HFO tracks though.

I think the Eagles should invite Jack onto the remains of the HOTE tour. We could then look forward to some great twitter/facebook interaction as the tour progresses.

Just found this thread. Listened to the version of PEF that Tempchin posted on FB, and fell in love! So I did some hunting and I'm downloading the first part of the second night right now. It's gonna take soooo loooong but I'm excited to hear Lover's Moon...

EDIT: That was one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. Holy crap. Don's backing vocals in the second verse just make it freaking perfect.
