Unless they...
Take it easy.
But don't take it to the limit.

I wish he would have done any song besides that one. I LOVE the Eagles but HATE that song with a passion that burns deep in my soul. 😂
So, I know the vocals sound killer because it’s the Eagles but I will not able watch or listen.

Wonder who’s doing the high harms? Randy Meisner? Because those harms are tight as shit.

There’s been plenty of reworking of performances using AI recently not to mention the outing of ‘The Eagles’ miming their live concerts.
I would take anything that sounds too ridiculously perfect these days with a great big lump of salt.

I would take anything that sounds too ridiculously perfect these days with a great big lump of salt. The Eagles usually sound pretty perfect in the studio if only because they kept doing it until it was perfect. There's some weird flanging effect going on with that Henley lead though that I don't ever remember noticing on the original record so this also might have been doctored somewhere along the line. That aside though, if you listen to some of the acapella vocals from even bands like the Rolling Stones on Honky Tonk Woman or the Who on "I can see for miles", those harmonies are scary tight. |

Yeah I get that many of these recordings were well rehearsed back in the day but there is now a propensity to rework many of these past recordings using AI to make them ‘perfect’ and it appears it’s becoming normalised. |

Yeah I get that many of these recordings were well rehearsed back in the day but there is now a propensity to rework many of these past recordings using AI to make them ‘perfect’ and it appears it’s becoming normalised. I made a thread about that a few years ago (I don't think it was here now that I think about it) where I had gotten ahold of some stems from "Tiny Dancer" and I was amazed to hear how steady the tempo was on the drum track. Virtually on the grid. (This was before I knew about drummers occasionally using a battery powered metronome or something like that back then, but that's not where the story is going.) Eventually I thought it sounded too good to be true so I matched the starting point up with the studio recording and let it run, and of course they started drifting out of sync before too long. It turned out to be from Rock Band or something like that and had been quantized in a way that wasn't obvious. There's also vocals floating around from the Rock Band version of "Brick" by Ben Folds Five were they (badly) attempted to pull Ben's vocals into perfect tune. |

Yes. In the long run. But then you’d have to eat your lunch all by yourself😁 Still one of the best lines ever. |
