Eagles - Nightingale



Another underrated early Eagles tune as a young Don Henley shows his potential chops. Hard to believe same acid-tongued guy who spewed "Garden of Allah" and the utterly unlisteningable (not really a word) "Building the Perfect Beast."

Check out the incredible harmonies at the end. Written by Jackson Browne about his fling with great-singer-artist, Laura Nyro. Hard to believe, but Browne wrote a lot more of this album than Henley did. Henley got half a credit on "Witchy Woman."
