On the Border [Vinyl]Japanese remastered reissue packaged in a limited edition miniature LP sleeve. Details TBA. Elektra. 2004.On their third album, the Eagles finally produced a No. 1 hit with “The Best of My Love,” but most of On the Border is marked by tough rockers, not sweet ballads. “Already Gone” is a brusque kiss-off and “Midnight Flyer” a bluegrass kicker, while “James Dean” recalls the ’50s rebel icon, and the title track reflects on paranoia and creeping Big Brotherism. The Eagles also cover a Tom Waits tune, “Ol’ 55,” and pay tribute to alt-country godfather Gram Parsons on “My Man.” The album title is prophetic in the sense that the band that made this record (bolstered by the addition of guitarist Don Felder) was on the verge of greatness, but not quite there yet. –Daniel Durchholz
