Best work: The Last ResortDon Henley is obviously the most recognized Eagles member. His voice stood out as
"the" lead vocalist for the later Eagles. Henley was probably the best songwriter, and perhaps
the best singer, even though he didn't have the best voice. He is a great drummer, with
Take it Easy, Hotel California, and Victim of Love standing out in my
mind; I also note that he has the great quality of staying out of parts of songs when he should,
such as Desperado. Henley also wrote and sang my favorite Eagles song, The Last
Resort. Don, I'm glad you gave up English and headed for the big time in L.A. You are truly
the backbone of the Eagles.
