I think that they're a really good band. I like the songs, 'Take it Easy', and 'Push It to The Limit'.

I like "Life in the Fast Lane" and "Take it Easy" best. Not enough to go on pilgrimage to Winslow though. :wink:

I dunno about their work in general, but I enjoyed Journey of the Sorcerer.

They have a lot of good songs, but I think that there music is overplayed (in the radio market that I live in anyways). I have always liked Take It to the Limit, Take It Easy, Despardo, and I Can't Tell You Why, but this overplaying on radio takes some of the joy out of those songs.

They have a few good songs, but a lot of bland stuff as well. I'd probably just listen to a selection of tracks rather than entire albums.

Do you, or are you quoting The Dude? :D :D :D :D

Not really big into them, but they're a pretty good band. A cliche choice as it is, "Hotel California" is a masterpiece when it comes to the instrumental arrangements.
