To the Limit: The Essential Collection

by Eagles

Overview

Pillars of California rock, the Eagles get the box set treatment with 2024's To the Limit: The Essential Collection. Released by archival specialists Rhino Records in conjunction with the band's longtime label Elektra, the wealth is spread between three discs that collate highlights from the Eagles' seven studio LPs including the 2007 comeback album Long Road Out of Eden. Also included is a generous helping of curated live tracks culled from 1980's Eagles Live all the way through their 2020 set Live at the Forum MMXVIII. More overview than deep dive, The Essential Collection isn't less concerned with rarities, instead offering the broad sweep of the Eagles' career both as recording artists and performers. ~ Timothy Monger
