Of course I’ll give you that hug. And you’re entitled to your opinion.
But there isn’t one Eagles lp (excepting their two Greatest Hits compilations) that I can listen to straight through without boredom being only intermittently abated by the occasional stand out track.

And there is nothing in the Eagles catalog to match the inventive, creative statement of TUSK, nor the near-perfect balance of RUMOURS.
To paraphrase what Mick once said: When you think of Chicago or the Eagles, you think of cold professionals; When you think of the members of FM you think of individuals...
