Eagles Video Profile (1985x83100)

Air date: Aug 31, 1985

Night Flight’s 1985 Video Profile of The Eagles begins with Pat Prescott introducing an epic performances of “Hotel California,” the ultra-hit that was the beginning of the end for the band. What follows is likely the most comprehensive and thorough review of the former member's solo careers before the band’s reunion in 1994. Patt Prescott takes us through Glenn Frey’s Miami Vice spin-off special single “Smugglers Blues,” Timothy Schmit’s 1983 “Playing It Cool,” Joe Walsh’s psychedelic cowboy odyssey “The Confessor,” (above) and of course Don Henley’s French New Wave-influenced video for the massive hit “Boys of Summer.”
