Description

Hell Freezes Over is the Eagles historic April 1994 reunion that resulted in a 9-times platinum album that spent 2 weeks atop the charts and spawned a mega-successful 2-year tour. And now, on March 8th, Geffen/USM is set to celebrate the 25th anniversary of this momentous release with the reissue of Hell Freezes Over on double 180-gram black vinyl.

Hell Freezes Over, originally produced by the Eagles with Elliot Scheiner and Rob Jacobs, has been expertly remastered for modern high-grade vinyl by Bob Ludwig.

Hell Freezes Over features the bands Long Run-era lineup drummer/vocalist Don Henley, guitarist/vocalist Glenn Frey, guitarist/vocalist Joe Walsh, guitarist/vocalist Don Felder, and bassist/vocalist Timothy B. Schmit performing four new studio tracks in addition to 11 live offerings from the reunion sessions that took place on April 25 & 26, 1994 at Warner Burbank Studios in Burbank, California and was subsequently broadcast as a highly-rated MTV special.

The hard-charging album-opening, studio track Get Over It, sets the tone for the overall proceedings, while Love Will Keep Us Alive, with touching lead vocal from Schmit, reached No. 1 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart in 1995. Highlights of the live portion of the album include the acoustic reimagining of Hotel California, the Walsh showcase Pretty Maids All In A Row, a stirring rendition of Henleys New York Minute that features the Burbank Philharmonic Orchestra, the always-jubilant Take It Easy, and the poignant Desperado finale that puts the spotlight on Henleys emotive lead vocals and piano.
