The album that accompanied the Eagles' much-hyped 1994 reunion highlights everything that made the group popular titans and critical targets through the '70s. Consisting of four new studio tracks and 11 live tracks from an MTV special, Hell Freezes Over is impeccably crafted -- and a little lifeless. The new tracks include "Get Over It," a mean-spirited rocker that takes aim at the cult of victimhood, and three decent love songs. The live stuff includes most of the hits, from "Take It Easy" to "I Can't Tell You Why," showcasing both the inspired melodicism and the austere professionalism that marked the group's original work. ~ Eddie Huffman

Rolling Stone (12/15/94, p.92) - 3.5 Stars - Good - "...the result is a tasteful, somewhat insular compilation of songs by former Eagles, rather than a fresh statement by a newly reunified band..."

A great collection of classic Eagles songs, this is a CD for the fans or people just getting into The Eagles. The Eagles are like country-rock almost. I'm no fan of country but this music is different.
The tracks "Tequila Sunrise," "Hotel California," "I Can't Tell You Why," "Life In The Fast Lane" and "Desperado" are all stand out tracks and tracks even non-Eagles fans will probablly know.

We all thought that the Eagles wouldn't reunite until hell froze over and now it has because there is nothing hotter than this album. If you love the Eagles this is the ultimate musical experience for you! Tracks from throughout the career of the Eagles are played to perfection better than you've ever heard them before. A must have for diehard fans.

What more can i say....... one of the Best albums of all time. It has so many eagles hits its not funny. You'd be mad to not include this in your c.d collection. The songs remind me of Summer at its best, hot sun, friends, cruising without a care in the world.

I'm not an Eagles fan as such, but this album is awesome. Don Henley singing "Desperado" from their country-rock days, who also does a lovely job on "Tequila Sunrise";the new song "Love will keep us alive" from Timothy B. Schmidt on vocal, their new treatment of "Hotel California" - so many guys make comebacks, and they just can't sing (I heard Barry Manilow a while back singing "At the Copacabana; it was just sad...) but these guys? Theyre still class...
