All-Music Review Of ''Eagles Live''
The Eagles were always a yawn in concert, and this profit-taking re-creation of their hits demonstrates the lifelessness they brought to live work. Today's fans should listen before forking over all those bucks to sit in the stadiums and experience it themselves. -- William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide

Q Magazine (7/93, p.104) - 3 Stars - Good - ''...this is The Eagles just before the split...If they were as disillusioned as they claim they were by then, it doesn't show. Quite the opposite in fact; this performance is as crisp and enjoyably spirited as this sort of thing can be...''

CD Connection Review Of ''Eagles Live''

The Eagles were riding high on the success of their 1979 album THE LONG RUN when they released this two-LP live set (faithfully reproduced on two short CDs). They were also about to break up, making EAGLES LIVE their
unintended swan song. Unintentional or not, EAGLES LIVE makes a nice wrap to the Eagles' not-so-long but incredibly strong run, featuring nearly studio-perfect renderings of the ballads (''Desperado'') and country rockers (''New Kid in Town'') on which they made their name, and of the tougher rockers they drifted toward later in their career (such as ''The Long Run,'' which Glenn Frey introduces as ''our tribute to Memphis, Tennessee''). EAGLES LIVE also includes a harmony-filled cover of Steve Young's lovely ''Seven Bridges Road,'' which turned out to be the Eagles' last pre-reunion hit, and a couple of Joe Walsh solo turns (including ''All Night Long,'' from the 1980 movie URBAN COWBOY). Most of the album was recorded in July 1980; a few tunes from October 1976 are thrown in for good measure. All of it was recorded in California, as an Eagles album should be.
