Eagles Live From The Forum Mmxviii (2020)

The Eagles spent most of 2018 on the road with an extensive North American tour that found Don Henley, Joe Walsh, and Timothy B. Schmit joined by two new bandmates: Deacon Frey and Vince Gill. Earning rave reviews from fans and critics alike, the quintet was firing on all cylinders when they arrived at the Forum in Los Angeles for three sold-out, hometown shows on September 12, 14, and 15. Highlights from all three shows have now been compiled for a new 26-song live album and concert film Live From The Forum MMXVIII. Live From The Forum MMXVIII captures definitive live performances of the band’s most iconic hits (“Hotel California,” “Take It Easy,” “Life In The Fast Lane,” “Desperado”) and beloved album tracks (“Ol’ 55,” “Those Shoes”), along with some of the individual members’ biggest solo smashes (Don Henley’s “Boys Of Summer,” Vince Gill’s “Don’t Let Our Love Start Slippin’ Away,” Joe Walsh’s “Rocky Mountain Way”).

Pillars of California rock, the Eagles get the box set treatment with 2024's To the Limit: The Essential Collection. Released by archival specialists Rhino Records in conjunction with the band's longtime label Elektra, the wealth is spread between three discs that collate highlights from the Eagles' seven studio LPs including the 2007 comeback album Long Road Out of Eden. Also included is a generous helping of curated live tracks culled from 1980's Eagles Live all the way through their 2020 set Live at the Forum MMXVIII. More overview than deep dive, The Essential Collection isn't less concerned with rarities, instead offering the broad sweep of the Eagles' career both as recording artists and performers.
