Take It Easy: Rhino Packages Eagles LPs for New CD Box

February 21, 2013 By Mike Duquette 2 Comments

eagles_boxRhino extends their "lots of albums on CD in one box set" trend to one of the biggest artists in their catalogue: the Eagles.

The Studio Albums 1972-1979 will collect exactly that: just about the entirety of the band's discography (not counting any non-LP tracks, either live album, Eagles Live (1980) or Hell Freezes Over (1994), nor most recent studio album Long Road Out of Eden (2007)) on six CDs. As with previous such Rhino boxes, it's expected to have no different mastering than prior CD releases (likely the same masterings by Ted Jensen at New York's Sterling Sound that were issued on CD in 1999), nor any other extra frills.

But again, if you don't have any of these albums, now's as good a time as any to pick this up - which you can do, in stores starting March 19 or at the Amazon links below.

The Studio Albums 1972-1979 (Elektra/Rhino 534728, 2013)

Amazon U.S. / Amazon U.K.

Michael Duquette (Founder) was fascinated with catalog music ever since he discovered there was more than one version of John Williams' soundtrack to E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial. A 2009 graduate of Seton Hall University with a B.A. in journalism, Mike paired his profession with his passion through The Second Disc, one of the first sites to focus on all reissue labels great and small. His passion for reissues turned into a career, with bylines on catalog at Discogs, City Pages and Ultimate Prince and credits on titles including the Grammy-winning 'Squeeze Box: The Complete Works of "Weird Al" Yankovic.' Born and raised in New Jersey, Mike lives in Astoria, Queens with an ever-expanding collection of music.

    wait a minute - I'm having a deja vu. A set like this has already been released, many years ago, the outside box looks exactly like this one, except at the time it was "Complete Eagles" full stop, and it did feature "Eagles live".
    I know because I own it.
    So now they are releasing more ore less the same package, but without "Eagles live"? I really wonder what's going on in the mind of discographers

    Should we assume that the outer sleeves are the only packaging elements being reproduced from the original albums? No booklet or inner sleeves, so no credits, liner notes or lyrics? If that's the case I'll pass. I'd like to do a sonic upgrade over my '80s-pressed CDs for a reasonable price, but not at the expense of packaging. I know this kind of box set is considered a budget way of getting all the studio albums in one place, but it wouldn't take much to print a 6-12 panel booklet that reproduces all the text from the original inner (or gatefold) sleeves.
