Eagles Mentions in the Press (2006 - 2017)

[thelastresort]

That reminds me, Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath guitarist, born about a mile from where I reside) mentions in his autobiography that they used the same recording studio as the Eagles after they had done a session for Hotel California - apparently before they started they had to clean coke off the mixing desk before they could even use it!

Edit - I love the coincidence that the post that takes me onto 666 posts is about Black Sabbath!

tlr, now that's just creepy!

Well, he said they were 'pretty true', and that Felder didn't exaggerate all that much. Which means he did exaggerate some. So I still take them with a grain of salt, and of course, Szymczyk wasn't there for what I recall as the worst bits, which is when they were on the various tours, rather than recording.

Everybody has their own truth and their own perceptions of what things happened and why. Add a lot of drugs, alcohol, and lack of sleep and I'm surprised they can remember anything.

Agreed.

There's some interesting stuff in this interview from when they were at the London Sundance screening of the documentary. A lot of it seems familiar but not all, so I think it's just fuller coverage of the press conference they gave.

Thanks for posting, UtW. I only remember bits of it. I don't think I have ever seen the entire article.

I don't remember reading that entire interview either. Great find, UTW. I'm going to post the link in the Sundance thread as well.

There's a little snippet in USA Today weekend magazine, Vintage Vinyl, where these two music experts talk about their favorite Eagles songs. There's a link to watch them discussing their picks. It's at USAweekend.com. They're fans, but don't know much about the band outside of Joe, Don and Glenn. They're picks were both familiar yet had a few refreshing differences.

Thanks for the headsup, ktdids. Although they do get a few details wrong, it was entertaining to watch. Here is the link to the video:

Jackson Browne gives some insight into the Eagles/Geffen relationship, amongst other things.
