On equal par with Hotel California

Review Score: (8/10)
It has been agreed by many, that the Eagles self-titled album was a bit of a dud. Sure it included "Witchy Woman" and "Take it Easy", but the remaining album tracks were quite ordinary.

After that, two more albums were released including "Desperado" and "On the Border". These two albums were an improvement on the first, but not outstanding.

Along comes the "One of these Nights" album in 1975. WOW, in one word. This is nothing short of brilliant. The album tracks are just as good as the lifted singles, which is also the case for Hotel california. What I do like about ""One of these Nights" is that it defines their talents clearly (eg. Journey of the Sorcerer, Hollywood Waltz), opening the way for "Hotel California". I never tire of playing this album. The digital remaster version adds more life to an already excellent soundtrack, and is worth hunting down.

Eagles - have been one of my favourite bands since I was 8.
