The Eagles: The Spectrum, Philadelphia
Chris Charlesworth, Melody Maker, 14 August 1976
SPECTRUM, Philadelphia: You can't get much more Los Angelean than the Eagles. Right down to the faded jeans and slightly wrinkled tee-shirts, the fuzzy moustaches and easy smiles and the casual disregard for any kind of stage routine.
