Eagles


One of These Nights occupies an important place in the Eagles' discography in that it represents the final album the group made before releasing the bajillion-selling Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975) compilation. The timing is telling. A coming-out party for Glenn Frey and Don Henley's songwriting skills, the studio record – the band's fourth, and its first to hit #1 on the charts – signifies the group's ascent to superstar status. Home to three massive singles (the title track, "Lyin' Eyes," and "Take It to the Limit") and nominated for four Grammy Awards, the quadruple-platinum 1975 effort solidified the Eagles' Southern California-reared sound and made the band a household name.

If you were to give the album a sonic score, you might describe it as upper mid-fi. When recorded they did a really good job on it sonically, given the recording capabilities of the time.

As recorded, it is a dense (almost wall of sound), smooth and full sounding album. The SACD mastering by Rob LoVerde at MoFi has retained that essential sonic character of the album, but now the details in the mix are much more apparent. Quite lovely.

I found myself following bass lines with ease and being surprised that they were even there!

Again, if you are fond of the Eagles, you will want to get this version.
