the Eagles.. great, yes they are.. I wish they had packed it in after Frey died.. how much money do the others need, Henley in particular? and why add Vince Gill? of course, the Classic Rock crowd gets what it deserves if it keeps willing to spend triple figures for tickets to see partial bands in hot stadiums.
Jackson Browne.. talented, great writer.. but his moroseness makes it difficult for me to listen to more than 15 minute slices of his music.
Meat Loaf.. he has been riding the Bat out of Hell wave for 40 years.. take away that one album, and you have very little remaining.
Boston.. I can almost say the same.. take away the debut album, and there's a marginal band.. Brad Delp's voice was artificially enhanced in the studio, in concert he needed a female singer on the chorus, to get near the rendition of the studio sound.
Billy Joel.. a hit-making machine, but I can think of no major artist who is as devoid of soul and passion in his vocals. excellent writer, but he's had some big misses: like "we didn't start the fire" and "goodnight Saigon".. forced lyrics that try to sound important.. he connected with "Allentown" though, that is probably his best song.
