In the course of this 70-minute, 14-song live disc, recorded at the Stadium in Dublin on July 8, 1992,
Glenn Frey divides the set list just about equally between solo material and old
Eagles songs. As such, it provides a good sampler of
Frey's career in total, from "Take It Easy" to "Smuggler's Blues." One might have hoped for a bit less of
Frey's then-current solo album,
Strange Weather, and a bit more of
the Eagles (after this record,
Frey returned for the group's reunion). At press time, MCA planned a
Frey hits compilation for the second half of 1995; until then, this will serve as the album best able to give listeners an idea of what his solo career has been like (and it is the only one to contain a version of "The Heat Is On," albeit not the hit recording). ~ William Ruhlmann
