In 2007, after a 28-year hiatus, the band reunited for this sprawling double album, a reflection on modern America. Recorded at various studios over several years, it features Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Joe Walsh, and Timothy B. Schmit, with production by the band and Steuart Smith. Tracks like "How Long," "Busy Being Fabulous," and "No More Walks in the Wood" blend their classic sound with contemporary themes. The cover, a desert highway, evokes their iconic imagery. It debuted at number 1 in the US and won two Grammys, including Best Pop Vocal Performance for "How Long." No lineup changes here, but the album's creation was a marathon, with Henley and Frey meticulously crafting each song. Studio tales include the band embracing digital technology, a far cry from their analog roots. The 20 tracks offer a mix of rock, country, and balladry, proving that even after decades, their chemistry remained intact. It's a triumphant return, a testament to their enduring legacy.
