Eagles Fly High On ‘Best Of’
Legendary California rock act the Eagles will be celebrated with a two-disc retrospective, “Eagles — The Very Best Of,” due Oct. 21 from Warner Strategic Marketing. The 33-track set will include a newly recorded single, “Hole in the World,” which is No. 71 in its fifth week on the Billboard Hot 100.
The collection will draw songs from the group’s three-decade career, with well-known cuts such as “Hotel California,” “The Best of My Love,” “Lyin’ Eyes” and “Heartache Tonight” as well as a live version of “Seven Bridges Road.”
Also included is “Please Come Home for Christmas,” which was previously only available as a commercial single. Limited editions of “The Very Best Of” will also include a bonus DVD with a video clip for “Hole in the World” and behind-the-scenes footage of the group’s latest tour.
The set will be the first two-disc collection of the band’s work, complementing such releases as “Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975)” (Asylum), which, having been certified by the Recording Industry Association of America for U.S. shipments of 28 million copies, is one of the biggest-selling albums of all time.
The Eagles are working on their first new studio album since 1979’s “The Long Run.”
