Don Henley's Actual Miles--The Mileage Is Actually Pretty Accurate

by sparkospunky Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Dec 30 '02
Pros: Excellent summary of Henley's solo career, lots of social and political commentary
Cons: Some of the songs run on a bit too long
Don Henley began his professional career as a member of the rock band Shiloh in the late sixties. After one album with the band, Henley made his way west and became a member of Linda Ronstadt's backup band (were they called the Stone...

Kick'em When They're Up, Kick'em When They're Down… Don Henley: Actual Miles

by George_Chabot Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Jun 12 '01
Pros: Technically brilliant musicianship. Great melodies and lyrics. Identifiable singer.
Cons: None
Everybody remembers The Eagles *yawn* with their patented brand of light rock with a country accent. At least their first several albums were that way. Probably the best thing that ever happened to The Eagles was when they snagged...

Actual crap, for the most part

by pyfr Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Dec 03 '07
Pros: Dirty Laundry. Boys Of Summer. Move past those and you're taking unnecessary risks.
Cons: A great artist with a savage wit becomes an unbearable pansy in the 1980's.
And then there’s Don Henley. A man who’s written some of the most enduring songs in rock n’ roll, as well as some of the most irritating sap to ever pollute the waves of 1980’s radio. It’s strange how the guy could go from being the ...

Henley Evolves

by ktryathart1 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, May 26 '01
Pros: If you want Henley's best, this it!
Cons: Can't turn it up loud enough for me.
After the Eagles break-up in 1980s, Don Henley literally soars to the top of the charts on his own. This is my favorite driving to and from work CD. You ought to see the looks I get when people see this on the backside of 50-year-old with her music...

Don Henley, can I be your back up singer?

by lynnzop Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jun 28 '01
Pros: Best of the Henley tunes out there are included
Cons: One truly lame track; repetitive 80’s disco beat can become tiresome
Light pop rock that has a little bite at times, Don Henley’s “Best of” CD is appropriately titled Actual Miles. A reference, perhaps, to Henley’s reputation as a typical rock god, stud-muffin with a woman (or underage girl) in every city? At any...

More Than Just Greatest Hits

by jlr29 , Aug 02 '02
Pros: Mostly excellent musicianship and lyrics
Cons: "Not Enough Love..." and "Last Worthless Evening"
The first thing I ever reviewed on Epinion's was Don Henley's most recent album, "Inside Job". I gave it five stars. Today I somewhat regret rating it so highly; when I listen back on that record today I feel that the lyrics are a bit overly preachy...

A good compilation with some great singles

by spraybottle , Jul 05 '00
Pros: Good singles, strong music, has all the hits
Cons: Some of the new stuff doesn't work, some singles here aren't that great, missing some great music
Out of all the Eagles, Don Henley has fared the best. When the Eagles broke up circa 1980 or so each of them went their own seperate ways and started making solo albums that ranged from terrible(sorry Timothy B. Schmit but I always thought the Eagles...

Pre-requisite For a Soul

by anecdoter , Nov 26 '00
Pros: Good songs, convienent package
Cons: Not remastered
Since Don Henley is one of the artist who writes either really good songs or songs that you avoid like the plague, it is hard to justify why anyone would want to buy any of his first three solo albums after the release of this greatest hits collection....

Actual Miles

by dperry , Nov 17 '00
Pros: New York Minute, The Last Worthless Evening
Cons: The end of the album
I bought this album because I liked the Eagles and had heard some of Henley's songs on the radio. What a great album it turned out to be! I have listened to it over and over again.
Henley touches my soul with New York Minute and The Last...

Don Henley Soars Without the Eagles

by Barrysu , May 18 '01
Pros: Classic hits
Cons: none
In my opinion, there is one reason why the rock group the Eagles were named Band of the Millenium: Don Henley on drums and lead! It's rare that a musician brought to prominence by his participation in a rock group continue his success without pause as a...
