Showtime debuted a new 3 hour Eagles special "History of the Eagles" this weekend. There is a new but very short interview with Stevie at the end of Part II. Something about the person who has slept with the most different members of the band or something. Seriously, this is a new interview and she looks a little different in it. Not sure when her part of shot. Sorry I can't post a screen shot yet.

As for the special, I was disappointed. Not only was it not put together as good as the Tom Petty or George Harrison documentaries but Don and Glen came off as arrogant and power hungry, unable or unwilling to get along with the other members of the group. For the most part, they wouldn't allow the other member's song to appear on the albums and wouldn't let them sing on their own songs. If that wasn't enough, they expected to get more of the money than the other members and also the songwriting royalties. It's as if there wasn't enough money to go around, especially considering they have one of the best selling albums of all time! Maybe I need to watch it again though. Some really nice shots of Linda Ronstadt.

They did manage to get Joe sober though. Hard to believe he didn't sober till 1994. Maybe that is why he is such a vegetable these days. Even with that, he still one of the more talented guitarist out there.
