Eagles: Up Ahead in the Distance (The Eagles Trilogy)

The first iconic guitar strums of "Take It Easy" captured America's attention in June 1972, and it became that summer's national anthem. Eagles became a pop-rock phenomenon with few peers blending musical and commercial excellence. Eagles: Up Ahead in the Distance is the second of three volumes on the history of the band, and authors Rik Forgo and Steve Cafarelli pick up where book number one in the series, Eagles: Before the Band, left off-continuing the stories of the group's evolution from opening act to can't-miss headliners. The book tracks how the band rocketed to the top of the charts behind hits like "Witchy Woman," "The Best of My Love," "One of These Nights," "Take It To the Limit," "Hotel California," and "The Long Run." It details the inspirations behind the songs, each band member's journey, and the artistry and personalities that blended so beautifully and clashed so explosively. Eagles: Up Ahead in the Distance follows the band's ascent into rock's upper echelon and describes how the pressure to succeed, creative intensity, and an unrelenting drive for perfection consumed the band and led to its heartbreaking breakup in 1980.
