- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 January 2025Bought for my mother, she was well happy.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 November 2024Classic collection of one of the best
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 August 2019I am a avid fan of the "Hotel California" album. I had the vinyl, the first CD issue, the second CD issue also the Electra Records Japanese SACD version, safe to say I love this album, apart from the " obligitory " Greatest Hits CD i have only the first album 'Eagles' on CD which I have only played the once.
I bought this as It was cheap, £12.99 for 6 albums (£2 odd each) so I am not expecting a lot, but happy with the value.
The outer cellophane shrink wrap on the box is so bloody difficult to get off the 'well made' ridged matt black box with clear matt gold graphics which opens up like a book, it's tight to open for the first few times but eases.
Once you get it open inside you will find 6 single CD's in single 'stiff' matt printed cardboard which faithfully reproduces the original album sleeves.
Well worth the price, if not a ''very good bargain''
As soon as i receive a CD it gets loaded into my 4TB Seagate Expansion HDD that i use as a server for Music only. (Who Needs Spotify ? I don't) The discs are loaded into my PC via the TEAC external CD/DVD Ripper/Burner that has been speed matched to the EAC software that i use to archive the discs at 16bit-44.1kHz WAV. I do not use flac as even that compresses a CD recording and 'Yes I Can Tell The Difference'
The first Disc ''Eagles'' felt very thin and it's printed label was off centre. It loaded onto the HDD at 2.5x speed which i find the best for replay sound quality, it showed that it had to have 20% error correction added which may lower the final sound quality.
The rest of the discs have loaded onto the HDD fine with around the same amount of 'Error Correction' added.
Sound quality on the PC via my Korg DS-DAC ''upscalling to 24bit-192kHz'' is fine but nothing compared to the sound from my Audio System, Marantz SA11s3, Musical Fidelity NU-Vista 600, Bowers & Wilkins 805D3
Using Hotel California to compare the newer 2013 remasters against the second UK CD pressing from 1994, i can honestly say that an improvement is there, deeper, warmer, better detail without any harseness and no noticable vocal sibilance.
£12.99 for the first six studio albums from the 'Eagles'
A genuine غ bargain worth buying, if it wasn't i would not bother sitting here for 20 minutes reviewing it.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 July 2024great collection of the set of albums from one of the greatest sounding bands of all time.sound quality is very good,especially at the price point it is a no brainer.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 March 2013To determine whether you are getting a good deal here or not largely depends on the current condition of your existing Eagles vinyl or CDs and whether they are in need of cheap replacement. In fulfilling such a purpose this new box set has significant merit, not least its price. Alternatively if your Eagles music collection is already in pristine condition then invest in a tax free ISA. This is another no frills Rhino "lob them altogether in a box collection". The details that go with it are the grouping of the six most popular Eagles studio albums from 1972-1979. This is not counting any non-LP tracks, either live album, Eagles Live (1980) or Hell Freezes Over (1994), or 2007s studio album "Long Road Out of Eden". As with previous and similar Rhino box sets there is no new mastering to speak of. Indeed they appear to be the same masterings by Ted Jensen at New York's Sterling Sound that were issued on CD in 1999 on the Eagles Selected works that always sounded great. These may also be the same remasters that formed part of the 2005's huge Eagles (Limited Edition Box) but frankly this reviewer is not prepared to mortgage the house to find out! The albums come packaged in generally ok vinyl-replica style wallets, held within a clamshell box and the titles included in this set are as follows:
THE EAGLES (1972) - The breezy Glyn Johns produced debut album starts off with the definitive cover of Jackson Browne's "Take it Easy" and also includes staples such as "Witchy Women" and the lovely laid back signature tune "Peaceful Easy Feeling". The Eagles are often rightly critiqued as popularisers of the cosmic Americana pioneered by Gram Parsons and Gene Clark. Yet the presence of Bernie Leadon on the album does give them a direct link to this tradition not least from his time in the Flying Burrito Brothers and the key supporting role that he played on the "Fantastic Journey of Dillard and Clark" where he co wrote the great country rock standard "Train leaves here this morning". The nice version here is not up to Clark's but is far superior to some of the filler present not least the dreadful "Chug all night" and the limp "Take the devil". Still this is an excellent career starting point
DESPERADO (1973) - This is the Western concept album that really started the Eagles ascent to the stratosphere. By the time the Old Grey Whistle Test played "Doolin Dalton" the buzz around the Eagles was huge and the flawless harmonies and vocals of Glenn Frey and Don Henley ("the Gods") really come to the forefront (and also their control freakery). This reviewer actually prefers the fragile Johnny Cash cover of "Desperado" to the original but whatever case it is a brilliant song with harmonies to die for and a great Henley lead vocal. Other standouts include the excellent Leadon composed "Bitter Creek", the equally strong Randy Meisner vehicle "Certain kind of fool" and the standout "Tequila sunrise". With "Desperado" the authenticity of the group's country underpinnings were never stronger and the album is a high water mark.
ON THE BORDER (1974) - This is a good Eagles album although it marks the growing ascendancy of Glenn Frey's push for a more rock orientated approach with Bill Szymczyk taken on production duties and guitar virtuoso Don Felder brought in as the fifth Eagle. By this time the fights and tension in the band were building, the Laurel Canyon ethos was drowning in an avalanche of white powder but superstardom beckoned. The Tom Waits cover "Ol'55" does sadly dilute the rough charm of the original but not surprisingly "Already gone" and "Best of My Love" easily demanded inclusion on the 1975 Greatest Hits album. The Gram Parsons tribute "My Man" and the bluegrass flavoured "Midnight Flyer" are the only other songs that really pushes the brilliance of those compositions while "James Dean" despite its promotion never quite made the Eagles premier division.
ONE OF THESE NIGHTS (1975) - The superb title track, Meisner's soaring ballad "Take it to the Limit" and what is probably the greatest Eagles song namely the brilliant "Lyin Eyes" are the centrepieces of the album and the start of the true era of cocaine cowboys. It is the album that saw Bernie Leadon part company because of the bands directional shift towards a country tinged version of stadium rock and with him went a authentic heart within the band. Success also bred conflict and in songs like "After The Thrill Is Gone" they charted the growing disillusionment and disappointment when faced with the realisation of "what can you do when your dreams come true, but it's not quite like you'd planned?"
HOTEL CALIFORNIA (1976) - Ex James Gang guitar hero Joe Walsh joins the band and the rest is history. The ubiquitous title track describing the sunshine state as a modern day babylon dominated FM radio in the US for years, as much as "Stairway to heaven"; the Mexican flavoured "New kid in town" is very fine, while Frey also stated that "Last Resort" was Henley's greatest song. This is an album that is revered as the Eagles stone cold classic yet in truth it contains a couple of below par tracks not least Walsh's "Pretty maids in a row" and the sluggish overwrought Felder composition "Victim of Love" which caused a rift in the band when Henley took on singing duties. Did "Wasted time" also need an orchestral reprise? From hereon however it was inexcusable not to know what "colitas" meant.
THE LONG RUN (1979) - A horrible album that emerged after three years of hellish bickering and rows. It contains the three worse Eagles songs "The Greeks Don't Want No Freaks." "Teenage Jail" and "The Disco Strangler". There are a couple of hits here not least the solid "Heartache tonight" and the pleasant Timothy Schdmit lead on the gentle soft rock of "I can't tell you why". The overall impression however is of a poor and over produced Don Henley solo album. It paved the way to the bands long split and the infamous July 31, 1980, concert in Long Beach, California, where Frey and Felder threatened all kinds of lurid violence on each other's person on stage on what has since become known as "Long Night at Wrong Beach".
History shows that the Eagles are one of the most popular bands of all time and of course they still tread the boards in what seems like a never ending tour where they air these songs. Today however they are as much remembered for the scale and destructiveness of their creative car crash under the strains of fast living, vicious personal disagreements and contractual obligations. Nonetheless setting aside the tumultuous history and listening intently again to these albums the often levelled accusation that the Eagles represent the summit of bland, overly comfortable and faintly ridiculous middle of the road rock really doesn't stand close examination. As someone who grew up in the early seventies they were an green oasis in the most barren of deserts not least in intermittently dark pre new wave era having to endure the weekly musical "waterboarding" of Top of the Pops and wall to wall Showaddywaddy and Mud on the daytime radio (with the notable exception of Johnnie Walker). They also took you on a path back to the great originators of country rock not only Gram Parsons but also further to founders like Hank Williams for which eternal gratitude should flow. There are some very poor songs on this box set it is true but the many great ones are effortless and timeless, forming a key component of the DNA of rock history. By any standards from this heyday period they deserve the status of a classic American band and the deep respect that flows from this.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 April 2023The media could not be loaded.
This limited edition set contains the Californian rock band’s six albums from the classic seventies era before their infamous “14-year vacation” (after which they returned with Hell Freezes Over). Included here are Eagles (1972), Desperado (1973), On The Border (1974), One Of These Nights (1975), Hotel California (1976) and the The Long Run (1979).
Sure there's no Hell Freezes Over(1994) or Long Road Out of Eden(2007)
It's a trip thru musical nostalgia where your transported to the 70's and relive the memories of arguably the BEST decade in existence and what better way than the albums in order and compounding that CDs well mastered giving sounds that bring the true essence of rock to life!
Even if you own the individual CDs it's worth buying to savor your memories in one place!
5.0 out of 5 stars The Eagles essentials in 1 place!This collection of 6 CDs manufactured in 2013 had me virtually spellbound-you get 6 discs housed in a gatefold sleeve with the albums come packaged in the usual vinyl-replica style wallets, held within a clamshell box and the titles included in this set are all the work they put out in their heyday!

5.0 out of 5 stars Super collection
All these years I’ve only had the greatest hits CD. It dawned on me that if I liked those songs there was a good chance I would like some of their deeper cuts. Each disc is in a cardboard sleeve and the set in a larger box. The discs were unblemished and I did not detect any bad places. The recordings are clear and based on the songs I am familiar with they are originals. Thie price was right for this collection and overall I am pleased with it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Totally Addictive
My car has a CD changer that holds six CDs, and the six Eagles CDs have been living in there since I bought them. I had never listened to the first three albums before and now they are my favourite ones.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tutta la produzione degli EAGLES anni 70
Un'ottima occasione per avere i primi 6 album in studio degli EAGLES in un unico box a prezzo speciale e con suono impeccabilmente rimasterizzato da Bernie Grundman. Dischetti con etichette che riproducono quelle dell'epoca di emissione e copertine repliche (quasi) fedeli delle originali. Non sono stati aggiunti libretti , linear notes, mini poster come in boxsets precedenti. Consigliato ai fans a agli amanti del buon western rock anni '70. Unico appunto: come già verificatosi con altri clienti غ, il cofanetto mi é arrivato danneggiato in alcune sue parti senza , per fortuna, pregiudicare l'integrità del contenuto. Una maggiore cura nell'imballaggio sarebbe stata utile.
