Editorial Review:
This packed double-disc is the slim option for fans who find the Eagles' vaunted greatest hits sets too little and the boxed set too hefty. Hit singles large and medium are here, often ("One of These Nights," "Hotel California") still sounding definitive and even tough. Large helpings of favorite album cuts are also included, along with a taster from a promised 2004 Eagles studio reunion. Unfortunately, "Hole in the World," Don Henley's response to September 11, feels just as empty and entitled as "Get Over It," the band's previous state-of-the-union message (from which the newer song represents a philosophical 180-degree turn). But for those seeking an overview of this Southern California juggernaut's successes, as well as telling comments from band members--mostly Henley and Frey--in a well-designed booklet, Very Best will more than do. --Rickey Wright

If you love the Eagles:
I got this after seeing the Eagles in concert and remerbering how many of their songs I knew and grew up listening too. It's a good CD. Will bring back memories.
Eagles, The Very Best:
Previously, I had heard a number of Eagles songs but I didn't have any of their CDs. This 2CD set is really good value from Amazon and has most of their best hits. Great collection.:
After seeing the Eagles in concert recently (a once in a lifetime event for me, one that I will never forget) I had to have some of the "oldies." This is a good collection with songs I had no idea the Eagles even sang. The interviews with Don and Glenn telling something about each song was very interesting too. And you can't beat the price. Eagles - The Very Best Of:
I already owned two of the Eagles CD's; however, after seeing them in concert recently in Springfield, Missouri, wanted to add this CD to my collection because it includes some of their newer songs. This CD is absolutely awesome - the next best thing to seeing them in concert! Tracks:
Take It Easy Witchy Woman Peaceful Easy Feeling Desperado Tequila Sunrise Doolin-Dalton Already Gone The Best Of My Love James Dean Ol' '55 Midnight Flyer On The Border Lyin' Eyes One Of These Nights Take It To The Limit After The Thrill Is Gone
