Surely this has to be on any list of classics ?!
The Eagles' "Great Leap Forward" from 1976 was a reflection on success, excess, and an angsty look at the US. Sold by the shedload due to the bands' superior song-writing, and a shift into Rockier terrain than they'd used before.
Track Listing:
1 Hotel California
2 New Kid in Town
3 Life in The Fast Lane
4 Wasted Time
5 Wasted Time (Reprise)
6 Victim of Love
7 Pretty Maids All in a Row
8 Try & Love Again
9 The Last Resort
Selected vid clips:
The classic live HC clip (audio a bit gnarly)

BRONZE award..............Eagles....................Hotel California - Jerome - 10-04-2011
This gets my vote - there isn't a single track on here that I don't like - and 'The Last Resort' is an absolute masterpiece.

Possibly their most well known album. The additon of Joe Walsh was clever !
I vote for this album !
