The Eagles 1975

[237SJ]

My local radio station is playing One Of These Nights by the Eagles. It was released 35 years ago which is quite shocking to me because I didn`t realise how hold I was. Anyway, do you think the popular music of today will be played on the radio in 35 years` time. If so, which bands or singers do you think they will be?

[237SJ]

Sorry, meant old, not hold!

Mushroom, I have never heard that track before. I didn`t know the Eagles did any instrumentals

Love the Eagles Hotel California too. I hadn't heard that track before mushroom.

Lying Eyes was a good one too..I went to California to see my cousin when I was 22 and on the way home I was listening to the aircraft radio and they played Lying Eyes. I could see a full moon out of the window, reflecting on the Atlantic below. I still see that now when I hear that song. Funny how music imbeds it`s way into our memory

I have an Eagles cassette in my van and play it over and over, never get tired of them.
I saw a band called the Illegal Eagles, brilliant tribute, see them if you can.

[237SJ]

I will do lankeela

I went to see The Eagles at Wembley (beforei t got toen down and rebuilt) during their Hell Freezes Over Tour. It was ruddy brilliant, a trult brilliant group.

As for who'll still be listened to in 35 years time? Hmm, lemme tihnk, whilst I'm no particular fan of either I think Oasis and Michael Jackson songs will still be heard then.

*it got torn*

Eagles, brilliant especially some album tracks Hollywood Waltz, The Last Resort, Ol' 55, still sound fresh, but what does these say about Buddy Holly still getting airtime after 50 years?. 35 years mere beginners.

Like Boo I had the pleasure of seeing the Eagles on the Hell Freezes Over tour but at the Mcalpine not Wembley and they were brilliant, I think Desparado is my favorite Eagles number. As to who'll still be getting played in 35 years? I cann't think of many off hand, in fact I don't think there are many we'll be hearing in 3 years. At the moment I'm listening to the Vintage Channel on MTV Dave Bowie and Jean Genii

I cant see many of the present artists being around in 35 years time or getting their music played. Perhaps the odd "classic" such as Angels by Robbie Williams but not many more they just are not memorable

There'll be as much music of today being played 35 years from now as there is 35 year old music being played today.
The reason is that the young people who like the stuff today will still like it and want to hear it then, just like you do with the Eagles.
