The Eagles - Again

So it's been a week since I bought the new Eagles album. When I first got the album I spent the time to post my feelings on every song. I see from my site meter that virtually nobody read it. That being the case, chances are pretty good that nobody will read this one either. Anyway... after a week, I have to say that my overall opinion of the album has changed. I've listened to it almost every day at work, and that proved to be the right environment to get acclimated to it. My biggest complaints with the album were that the lyrics are too hippie-pinko for my tastes, and the music was a tad bland. When I listen to tunes at work, I don't really pay attention to them, as they're just a way of reducing other audible distractions (like having a fan on when you sleep). After listening to the album this way over and over, I've become very familiar with the music, and have largely ignored the lyrics. In doing this, I've found that I've become very fond of the album. It's still not ever going to match the quality of their older stuff, but it is an album that I expect to keep in my rotation for a long time to come.
