I've been ill, bed-bound, in surgery ,broken and distorted for about 8 months consecutive now. Today I am better, but I am double cautious about tomorrow.
The Eagles would never have been invited to perform at the CMAs in the 70's because they wouldn't have been as easily accepted by Nashville as they would eventually in the 90's and beyond.
I never saw this at the time it originally aired,but I did buy the CD at Wal-mart shortly thereafter and I only liked this and one other song on it.I didn't have a computer then or I would have just purchased those songs off of iTunes.
chadlovesdrums, there is no doubt that STUERT SMITH is an amazing talent. I feel that so many Eagles Fans love (and miss) Don Felder because basically Felder felt like he was a "member" of the Eagles as opposed to someone who just joined the band in 1974. I think that Frey and Henley (who were obviously original members) used that against Felder when it came to "royalties". What a shame. Such an awesome band scarred by greed. So sad.
Felder actually owned 33.3 % of Eagles, and he was CFO of Eagles LTD when he suddenly got sacked after making inquries about where all of the money was going..
Frey and Henley are two of the greediest bastards on the planet.How Long was written by JD Souther in the early seventies and since Frey and Henley can't write a decent song anymore they had to rely on their long time friend JD to bail them out.It's the only song I remember as being a hit from the last debacle they called an album.
Mr. Don Henley and the guys are tops! There will never be another group like this! Their voices and musical ability are superb! They will remain in the archives - "How Long" - Forever.
as far as steuart smith goes. Phenominal guitarist. i saw them in kansas city in 2009. may not be quite as good as felder but he's close. And u cant blame steuart. he was just hired on as a replacement. the problem was for felder he wasnt more prominent in the band. didnt sing much. so replacing him was like replacing a band member. they couldnt replace henley or walsh but its because of their vocals not their playing. felder just didnt carry a big enough stick in the band.
I do think when we talk Eagles we must honor Bernie Leadon. If you listen to the old vids you will know that Bernie Leadon is totally responsible for the Eagles sound and let us not leave out Randy Meisner's awesome bass work.....yes Don Felder was way way good and added another demension their music.....I think we can agree the Eagles are one of a kind and Frye and Henley were were two of the most prolific writers of the 20th century.....
I do think when we talk Eagles we must honor Bernie Leadon. If you listen to the ong vid you will know that Bernie is totally responsible for the Eagles sound and lets us not leave out Randy Meisner's awesom bass work.....
I grew up with the Eagles, they have always been my favorite band and it's been 30 years now. I have a lot of respect for Don Felder but I also have MASSIVE respect for Stuert Smith..... The guy stepped up and filled the boots of a LEGEND and he did it with a LOT of style and a lot of class. He is an amazing guitarist and song writer and if It wasn't for him I don't think I would have had the opportunity to see them live. I love to watch him play guitar.
Thanks again dmcdante. I play in a band that does some Eagles numbers, as well as other covers. We do the harmonies well, and are OK on the backing. I wanted to see if I could get closer to their sound as the Band's guitarist. I have a 60th anniversary Strat, which sound OK, but the trem bridge works against note bending of only one string. Thought a Tele would be the way to go. Reconsidering now thank you. Any general tips or comments on his SG Junior (eg is it stock?).
@Brontosman Nice! Harmonizing is really the hardest thing to do when covering their songs.
I believe the SG Junior is bone stock with a p90 pickup but I'm not sure.
BTW in several tunes like New Kid in Town and Love Will Keep Us Alive, Steuart Smith uses his 58' Strat which is equiped with EMG pickups. What a surprise he seems to use non-typical equipments to generate his unique sound.
@Brontosman You're welcome mate. In the video, he used a Peavey Classic 50 4x10. I believe he used the same guitar and amp in the album version since the tone in the live version was close to the album one.
Hi Eagles fans - can anyone tell me what guitar is used to do the solos in the album version and by whom ? The solos here live are being done by the guy on the far right on what looks like an SG Gibson ?? Thanks ! Don
@Brontosman The one on the far right is Steuart Smith, the guitarist filling Don Felder's position since Felder left. The guitar is a Gibson SG Junior
@Brontosman@Brontosman The one on the far right is Steuart Smith, the guitarist filling Don Felder's position since Don left. The guitar is a Gibson SG Junior
the eagles are the best band i ever saw...i saw them in 94 on the reunion tour and don felder was incredible....sorry he left...
this song is great..and it sounds like vintage eagles...i have the cd and its ok...lot of forgettable songs..but this song sounds great ...i wish there more more songs as well written and recorded as this one on their last cd...
to much complaining about a dismal world..yeah for me..not them those multi millionaires...
I just went to see them in Bangkok and all I can say is...AWESOME!! I suddenly came back home to Google for more Stuert Smith's discography because he was my favorite in the concert. I just figured out he was not one of the members before. What a shame! Anyhow, I'm really following his work from now...
Hey Metallic Bill what's up?Yes, it was just a typo, but the Eagles, still are great, I do miss Don Felder so, I have both Eagles live that I can find, Hell Freezes Over and Live in Melbourne, if I could find there old one, I'd buy it too, I find parts of it on UTube, but I can't find it in any store....or online, YET...Hey /bill I think that Pink Floyd and Jethro Tull, are pretty darn good too...So are the doobie brother's but hey, right now, I can't find my picks,,,,,
For another cover, and a song they used to do back in the 70s, I thought what better way to reintroduce the band, I like how Frey sings "Shining in the sun" live, versus the recorded version, gives it a raw edge! haha Recall Longbranch Pennywhistle?? Well, that's his old partner who wrote the song! haha
@matthewjparvin " A Mad Hatter?", It's Hater, at least you spelled Stu's name right, and I got it wrong, it's odd though. Felder seems a very nice guy and his book was a touching read, fantastic too!
@ZR1Terror In the World, You know I think the UK band UFO is one of the best ever, and my list is prime example; UFO, Eagles, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, The Who, the Stones, and special mention; The Beatles (I can live without those blokes!!)
i see alot of comments about stuert smith yes he may not be felder god knows no one can ever replace the guitar legend but what some of you may not know is with there album in 2007 ''long road out of eden'' stuert had a lot to do with it Don henley admires stuert he said he has been a huge inspiration and co wrote a few of the songs on the said album and not to mention is a fantastic guitarist no doubt so dont hate on him and long live americas greatest band ''The Eagles''
@chadlovesdrums We use to have a Classic Rock Station here in Little Rock That had the best DJ ever, Tommy Smith.Once a year he would open the show up for votes and comments on the greatest rock band of all time.Every year guess who won? EAGLES. THere is a good reason for that. They are GREAT!!!
@chadlovesdrums It's Stueart if I recall, however, he's a career session player of sorts, and they've said for some time, he'll never be a FULL ON official member of the Eagles, and since Don Felder was part Co-partner/owner in Eagles Ltd. That was such a hassle, they continue without much change there since his split. I imagine Stu and the others have a pay cut compared to Frey and Henley. However, it's good for the fans that they soldier on for the sake of the music, it's the most important!
stews a session man..competent..thats all...trust me..henley could have found inspiration from felder..a load more...but he and frey wanted to cut him down from full partner..to 15 percent....but thats like mccartney and harrison telling that to ringo..you aint an equal partner no more now take 15 percent
i have seen the greats..duane allman, clapton, page, beck, van halen, dickie betts, etc...and no one has a sweeter tone then felder..happy i saw him in '94 with the eagles
@chadlovesdrums Agree that Stuert Smith is an amazing guitarist. It's just that IMHO the Eagles have lost "something" since Felder left, and to be honest (and I'm an Eagles fan going back to the 70s) Long Road out of Eden is weak. But am I glad they are still touring, with or without Felder, yes of course, are they as strong a line up without Felder, of course not. Do I expect things to change, again of course not !!
@chadlovesdrums ....I agree with you. No one can replace Felder but not enough credit is given to Meissner and Leadon either. Steuart Smith is a fabulous guitarist, but if Henley and Frey want to do what's right, they ought to make him a permanent member of The Eagles instead of just a side man!
@chadlovesdrums I'm not sure why YouTube commenters refuse to use punctuation. You evidently know how to use quotation marks, but didn't use a single comma or period. It makes your comment extremely difficult to read.
@chadlovesdrums You better believe it. I only wish that The Eagles will recognize Stuart as a real Eagle, not just the 'fifth Eagle.' He co-wrote Walking In The Weeds and Sarah (my daughter) and I love that song.
they may all look very different from when they first started, but the magic they possessed, they possess still.
i want nothing more than to see them live. never had the opputrunity. does anyone know if they will be coming to montreal anytime in the next few years???
@webcreeper2002 no well there getting older and as you can hear they dont sound like they used to, glenn has trouble hitting certain notes and as much as i really dont want to admit it there not gona be doing this forever and the way music is going,real music like these legends are gona fade in the background only to be replaced by auto tune and mimeing actor like brittany spears and lady caca. but one thing i do know they will do a few solo acts after the tour.
@chadlovesdrums Solo releases are on the "docket", I expect that as well, however, I believe the band will be in hiatus, so they don't stress out during the touring stints, and I think they better be re-ignited to record some more new material, and make it another double CD. If I recall, It could have been three CDs worth? Remember how Don Felder commented the songs on Long Road were done earlier with him in the band and the record company thought the quality sub-par! Yet they dusted them off!
I disagree. I saw them twice on this tour, once front row in Nashville. They were right on with all their harmonies, hit all the notes and the sound was awesome. Yeah they are older, but they still got it. And, at least they did this live at the CMT's unlike many who fake it, esp. at other awards shows, like Britney (gag) Spears!
@webcreeper2002 They are absolutely spot on! Saw them twice! If you check their site, you can see their tour dates. I thought their last date was going to be here in Hong Kong, but they keep adding on. Who knows if they might go back to the Americas!
yeah i did check the site, thats why i was panicking. yeah i hope they do come back for one grand tour. i mean, ppl know they r older and sound slightly different, but they r still one of the best live performers around.
@mrmarleybob !!!!! You are obviously not very familiar with the works of the eagles or any of the laurel canyon / Los Angeles music scene ! Frey Henley Walsh felder were all there living the dream & embracing the lifestyle that came with it ! There music came from the soul & it meant something to them ! So fuck you motherfucker ! Go listen to some reggae ! And yeah Stuart smith still sucks just like your opinion
@lordaaronsmith u think anyone wants to hear that fucking crap anymore...the guy is an awesome guitarist and by the way..if people as talented as these guys WANT HIM to play their songs....WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU TO SAY HE AINT GOOD ENOUGH...what a twat.
It's amazing that 40 years after they started - they still sound as crisp as they did when they came out with Take It Easy. This group is the most successful rock group in American history and they get no props at all. How could VH1 run a list of the top 100 acts of all time - and the Eagles didn't make the top 100 ? They have 2 of the top 10 selling albums of alll time, including #1. Can someone explain that one to me ? Live on Eagles - we love ya in the heartland !
@woodyinappleton62 this band is nearly as old as I am. I listened to them from the age of 16 and 30 years later i still like to sing a long to some of the finest music out there. thank you the Eagles and ignore these commercial tv awards.
@woodyinappleton62 I doubt it's been 40 years, it was 1972? I was born in 1966, I'm not 45 yet! haha Anyway, it's now been "A Long Run", I hear from the FastLane fanclub online, the Eagles will finish out UK and USA dates and be winding down for a time, perhaps some solo releases to follow in the next year or so. I really hope they knock out a new album
@woodyinappleton62 There's a simple answer. VH1 are fucking stupid. Most of turds in their top 100 will be erased from memory while Don and the lads will still be played all over the world.
@RainbowGrrl75 . It's Steuart Smith and he totally rocks. My wife and I saw the Eagles on Oct 16 in Louisville, KY and his performance was absolutely flawless.
@tdhall7165a I was there, too! They rocked the place! They couldn't have picked a better act to open the bucket; their performance was completely spot on.
@tdhall7165a Your wife gave me a blowjob that morning October 16th and I gave her the two Eagles tickets in exchange for her allowing me to nut in her mouth.Her performance was absolutely flawless.
They opened their LRoE Tour Gig in Manchester last year with this xD
It was something else like, lights went down; we are sitting there wondering whats happened; no introduction or anything when How Long just opens up; lights come up and we're into the gig :P
I hope all the guys in the audience here especially Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney heard how real music sounds. The great thing with The Eagles is that they don't need a million dollars worth of recording software and thousands of dollars in studio musicians to make music (Taylor Swift, Trace Adkins) they need instruments and thats it. Id love to sit around the campfire and drink a few with these guys, not Joe of course he's living one day at a time (lol), and listen to raw, pure, music.
@southerncrossingband how can you sit there and assume that guys like Trace and Tim and people like Taylor Swift have no idea what real music sounds like?
@southerncrossingband Hells yes! Tim McGraw, this is what it sounds like when people can sing in tune without digital manipulation. You hear that sound? It's called talent.
Cant wait to see them in 9 days! These guys have been my idles since i was like 5 and i have my mom to thank for that. Im 19 now but these guys are just amazing.
@ohbradky Glenn Frey- lead guitar, Don Henley- drums, backup guitar, Joe Walsh- electric guitar, Timothy Schmidt- bass. The guy on the far end is Stanley Smith- he plays electric and sings backup vocals, though he's not an official Eagle.
Well done live version! And who's doing the guitar work that really moves the song? It's like the camera ignores him. but not my ears! He sure has that classic Eagles sound down!
And the Dixie Chicks - they may not have this much drive and excitement, but they are more folkish. Excellent musicians, wonderful singers. Very emotional songs. But maybe best not mentioned on an Eagles site. They can be similar, but very different. Plus, unlike most bands, they can get along!
how long? how long will i wait for a new record? great backing vocals. oh yeah they still got it. thanks to country rock...i mean THANKS TO POCO and Mr FURAY
Check out the eagles experience live from johannesburg, they are an australian tribute show and there don henley is from glasgow in scotland.He Sounds totally awsome and as close to the real band and man himself
Wow ... this version of "How Long" is eons upon eons BEHIND the rendition they performed in the early 70's (with Meisner and Leadon)....such a shame....
I bet that most everybody back stage who was to perform dropped what they were doing to watch the Eagles play live. I wouldn't blame them one bit because that's what I'd have done!
This song sounded ALOT BETTER when Randy Miesner was in the band.
Check out the video of this song with the original lineup from 1973.

ZR1Terror 1 year ago
@ZR1Terror In the World, You know I think the UK band UFO is one of the best ever, and my list is prime example; UFO, Eagles, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, The Who, the Stones, and special mention; The Beatles (I can live without those blokes!!)

i see alot of comments about stuert smith yes he may not be felder god knows no one can ever replace the guitar legend but what some of you may not know is with there album in 2007 ''long road out of eden'' stuert had a lot to do with it Don henley admires stuert he said he has been a huge inspiration and co wrote a few of the songs on the said album and not to mention is a fantastic guitarist no doubt so dont hate on him and long live americas greatest band ''The Eagles''

@chadlovesdrums We use to have a Classic Rock Station here in Little Rock That had the best DJ ever, Tommy Smith.Once a year he would open the show up for votes and comments on the greatest rock band of all time.Every year guess who won? EAGLES. THere is a good reason for that. They are GREAT!!!

@chadlovesdrums It's Stueart if I recall, however, he's a career session player of sorts, and they've said for some time, he'll never be a FULL ON official member of the Eagles, and since Don Felder was part Co-partner/owner in Eagles Ltd. That was such a hassle, they continue without much change there since his split. I imagine Stu and the others have a pay cut compared to Frey and Henley. However, it's good for the fans that they soldier on for the sake of the music, it's the most important!

@chadlovesdrums
stews a session man..competent..thats all...trust me..henley could have found inspiration from felder..a load more...but he and frey wanted to cut him down from full partner..to 15 percent....but thats like mccartney and harrison telling that to ringo..you aint an equal partner no more now take 15 percent
i have seen the greats..duane allman, clapton, page, beck, van halen, dickie betts, etc...and no one has a sweeter tone then felder..happy i saw him in '94 with the eagles

@chadlovesdrums Agree that Stuert Smith is an amazing guitarist. It's just that IMHO the Eagles have lost "something" since Felder left, and to be honest (and I'm an Eagles fan going back to the 70s) Long Road out of Eden is weak. But am I glad they are still touring, with or without Felder, yes of course, are they as strong a line up without Felder, of course not. Do I expect things to change, again of course not !!
bertfrantic 11 months ago
@chadlovesdrums ....I agree with you. No one can replace Felder but not enough credit is given to Meissner and Leadon either. Steuart Smith is a fabulous guitarist, but if Henley and Frey want to do what's right, they ought to make him a permanent member of The Eagles instead of just a side man!

@chadlovesdrums I'm not sure why YouTube commenters refuse to use punctuation. You evidently know how to use quotation marks, but didn't use a single comma or period. It makes your comment extremely difficult to read.

@chadlovesdrums You better believe it. I only wish that The Eagles will recognize Stuart as a real Eagle, not just the 'fifth Eagle.' He co-wrote Walking In The Weeds and Sarah (my daughter) and I love that song.

@webcreeper2002 no well there getting older and as you can hear they dont sound like they used to, glenn has trouble hitting certain notes and as much as i really dont want to admit it there not gona be doing this forever and the way music is going,real music like these legends are gona fade in the background only to be replaced by auto tune and mimeing actor like brittany spears and lady caca. but one thing i do know they will do a few solo acts after the tour.
chadlovesdrums 1 year ago
@chadlovesdrums Solo releases are on the "docket", I expect that as well, however, I believe the band will be in hiatus, so they don't stress out during the touring stints, and I think they better be re-ignited to record some more new material, and make it another double CD. If I recall, It could have been three CDs worth? Remember how Don Felder commented the songs on Long Road were done earlier with him in the band and the record company thought the quality sub-par! Yet they dusted them off!
MetallicBill 1 year ago
@chadlovesdrums
I disagree. I saw them twice on this tour, once front row in Nashville. They were right on with all their harmonies, hit all the notes and the sound was awesome. Yeah they are older, but they still got it. And, at least they did this live at the CMT's unlike many who fake it, esp. at other awards shows, like Britney (gag) Spears!
sooozaq 10 months ago
@webcreeper2002 They are absolutely spot on! Saw them twice! If you check their site, you can see their tour dates. I thought their last date was going to be here in Hong Kong, but they keep adding on. Who knows if they might go back to the Americas!

@mrmarleybob !!!!! You are obviously not very familiar with the works of the eagles or any of the laurel canyon / Los Angeles music scene ! Frey Henley Walsh felder were all there living the dream & embracing the lifestyle that came with it ! There music came from the soul & it meant something to them ! So fuck you motherfucker ! Go listen to some reggae ! And yeah Stuart smith still sucks just like your opinion

It's amazing that 40 years after they started - they still sound as crisp as they did when they came out with Take It Easy. This group is the most successful rock group in American history and they get no props at all. How could VH1 run a list of the top 100 acts of all time - and the Eagles didn't make the top 100 ? They have 2 of the top 10 selling albums of alll time, including #1. Can someone explain that one to me ? Live on Eagles - we love ya in the heartland !

@woodyinappleton62 I doubt it's been 40 years, it was 1972? I was born in 1966, I'm not 45 yet! haha Anyway, it's now been "A Long Run", I hear from the FastLane fanclub online, the Eagles will finish out UK and USA dates and be winding down for a time, perhaps some solo releases to follow in the next year or so. I really hope they knock out a new album

I hope all the guys in the audience here especially Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney heard how real music sounds. The great thing with The Eagles is that they don't need a million dollars worth of recording software and thousands of dollars in studio musicians to make music (Taylor Swift, Trace Adkins) they need instruments and thats it. Id love to sit around the campfire and drink a few with these guys, not Joe of course he's living one day at a time (lol), and listen to raw, pure, music.

Well done live version! And who's doing the guitar work that really moves the song? It's like the camera ignores him. but not my ears! He sure has that classic Eagles sound down!
And the Dixie Chicks - they may not have this much drive and excitement, but they are more folkish. Excellent musicians, wonderful singers. Very emotional songs. But maybe best not mentioned on an Eagles site. They can be similar, but very different. Plus, unlike most bands, they can get along!
