The Eagles announced their breakup in 1982, and this is the first of four California dates, the first of which was July 27, 1980 at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium!
Although the July 29th performance was previously known as a Millard recording, this “First Night” recording is the first time it has been made available, and the sound quality is second to none, making it a superb audience recording master of the highest quality.
The only song that is incomplete is “Heartache Tonight,” which is included on the official live album, but the rest of the songs, including those that were not included on the previous 29th show, are included in the complete recording. Unlike the official live album, which was edited from multiple performances, this is a rare live recording of the concert at that time in the best sound quality, and is an unmissable discovery!
