Take It 'To the Limit': New Eagles Triple Album Offers Hits, Live Cuts
Last fall, Eagles embarked on their Long Goodbye tour.

The tour currently has gigs lined up through June in North America and Europe, including stops in Chicago, Toronto, and Manchester. Each show has amounted to a greatest-hits retrospective, and so it's no surprise that a companion audio release will
