A few obvious choices, but some nice obscurities as well (Wayne Fontana, P&G, DCF).

Nice to see someone is still adding a bonus track or two when the length of the set permits. Funny that I don't think AL has gone to 11 more than a couple of times since Constantine arrived in town. Too bad.

indeed, the Drive, The Sound and The Peak basically stole the "goes to 11" shtick from AL and now she seems to have stopped doing it.

great set, even the Journey.  Interesting that they credit Joe Walsh and not Eagles for In The City. That's the way it should be, it's all him, and can you imagine how But Seriously, Folks... would be be made even greater if it contained that track?  the mind reels...

... but Eagles desperately wanted it for The Long Run to make that album less of a disappointment.


ETA: Silly me. I just learned that Joe's version was recorded for the Warriors movie soundtrack, so perhaps what they played after all.

Completely agree about Joe's version of In The City. It was out long before The Long Run was released, and I thought it was lame of the Eagles to release a sub-standard re-recording of a song that was only a year or so old. On the other hand, maybe Joe wanted a song of his own on there, for royalty purposes or something. And they certainly didn't have anything better.
