Hell Freezes Over: Both Nights

[sodascouts]

I'm with you, Tori. It's my favorite performance of Peaceful Easy Feeling EVER. I told Tempchin that myself when I was at a songwriting festival in Nashville. He didn't know what performance I was talking about then. Obviously, he does now!

I'm with you both too! Amazing performance

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 listened to that string buzz. Sure it's there on the 'Hell Freezes Over: Second Night' recording. But it's fixable.

The Eagles are masters at fixing/correcting/perfecting recordings, if they wanted that song on the official release, it would have happened.

I was surprised to see Eagles – Unplugged 1994: The Second Night (2016) turn up on a new albums site.

Now the relevant technology is easily accessible, I wonder if they've attended to that buzzing string issue

It's a Henley and ballad heavy set list but it's still a great listen

Thanks for the link, F50.

I just bought this CD (from Amazon, believe it or not) and it's great....I love Lover's Moon and I've wanted the Eagles' version of The Heart of the Matter for a long time.

Is this the entire second night, and not the first night? I thought Don forgot the words on Learn to Be Still on the first night and that isn't on the CD (which is unfortunate, I love Glenn's laugh). It sounds like someone taped the concert and put it on CD without editing anything out, so wouldn't it be the second night then?

Was the entire concert aired on MTV back in 1994? I was 8 years old at the time, so I have no idea...all I've seen is the DVD.

Groupie - No, they edited it and it was shown on tv six months after it was filmed. I don't have the 2nd night cd(will have to look into it) but heard it is almost as good as the 1st night.

This is my understanding but I could be wrong...

The "second night" recording is a bootleg from the soundboard of the show. That means the quality is very good but it probably hasn't been polished as much as the recordings that were used for broadcast. It also has five songs that didn't make the broadcast and the ordering is different. There is poor quality video out there for at least three of the missing songs. (Missing songs: Peaceful Easy Feeling, Best of My Love, Lovers' moon, One of These Nights, Heartache Tonight).

If you've seen the clip of Don forgetting the words (it's an extra on the HFO DVD), you should have heard Glenn say that it's television which means they can do it over again. I take that to mean that after a quick reset (getting cameras back into place etc), they would have repeated it immediately and that could have been the recording they used.

From the "seond night" recording, it's clear that on that night they opened with "Peaceful Easy Feeling". You can hear the anticipation from the crowd as they settled in. That show is split into two parts - without orchestra and then with orchestra with the orchestra tuning up in between.

I love that version of "Peaceful Easy Feeling" and think it's better than almost anything that made the broadcast show.

I haven't tried this, but you could check the official DVD for where everyone is sitting or standing to work out a rough order for that night, along with whether the orchestra plays.

Thanks, UTW. Maybe the CD is the order for the night and it was edited for TV and the DVD. I'll pay attention the next time I watch it. The clip of Don forgetting the words is also in the HOTE documentary.
