Eagles: On The Border versie op vinyl LP in standaard editie. Deze specifieke uitgave werd uitgebracht in Verenigd Koninkrijk bij uitgeverij Asylum Records in het jaar 1974.

In 1974, the Eagles released their third studio album, which gave them their first - but certainly not their last - hit single. The album ON THE BORDER, produced by Glynn Johns ("You Never Cry Like a Lover" and "Best of My Love") and Bill Szymczyk (everything else) during sessions at Record Plant Studios in Los Angeles and Olympic Studios in London, was the first Eagles album with guitarist Don Felder in the lineup, but it could have been a very different album if the guys in the band hadn't gotten tired of Johns' desire to play country in their rock. Johns' argument was: "The Who is a rock 'n' roll band, and you're not." You can imagine how well that worked out. After six weeks of working with Johns in London, the Eagles returned to L.A. and teamed up with Szymczyk, and it was during these sessions that Felder joined the band. He joined rather late, though, so he can only be heard on two tracks - "Good Day in Hell" and "Already Gone" - but even that was enough to make a name for himself and be officially inducted into the band. Ironically, the aforementioned number one hit almost never came out as a single: it was the song "Best of My Love", as you might have guessed, and since it was produced by Glynn Johns, they were hesitant to emphasize the country side of their sound. Fortunately, other opinions prevailed and the song topped the charts.

Album valt binnen het genre Rock, Pop Rock en Country Rock. Textured Sleeve Vinyl.
