    That was the first time I've heard that Take It To The Limit went into Randy's head - as a writer. Not sure if I believe that. That happened with Peter Criss (KISS) and Beth. But Randy had more to do with his song than Peter with his!

    This is slightly Eagles related but I've seen them mentioned now in a few reviews of Kings of Leon's latest album "Walls". Kings of Leon really have gone back to their Southern rock sound they started with but it's also still current including having some nice ballads. I've seen some already saying "Walls" is their "Hotel California" and it's now my fav KOL album. I've never liked all the songs on one of their albums till now. It's such a fantastic album and I think I can hear the comparison there.

    Funny you should say that because http://www.thenational.ae/arts-life/music/album-review-kings-of-leon-return-to-their-roots-in-walls turned up today and the review is full of Eagles references.

    That was one of the ones I saw last night UTW. Glad I wasn't the only one realizing it.

    This is weird because I was reading a review of the Kings of Leon album in the newspaper on a train journey a couple of weeks ago. There were no Eagles mentions in their review, but by some strange coincidence, one of the albums I was listening to on that journey was Desperado. It was only recently that I discovered that they were originally a Southern rock band, I was really only aware of their (for want of a better term) more 'stadium rock' type songs (Sex On Fire and suchlike).

    This from the Washington Post where Don Henley and others discuss Don's previous statements about Deacon Frey, the Kennedy Center Honors, some band history and Glenn's death.

    Well, there you go then. I'm going to change the title of the other thread!

    A revealing article.

    The lyrics manuscript for Hotel California is up for auction at Sotheby's on Dec 10th.

    Here's a picture - I wish it was all spread out.

    Any handwriting experts here? I think the sheet with all the rhymes for "Ice" is probably Glenn's whereas the one headed "Hotel California" is Don's. Of course, it doesn't tell us who came up with a line/phrase/word, just who wrote it down.

    Very interesting document, considering that they always claimed that they disposed of anything that they didn't use. Thanks for posting UndertheWire.
