Album Overview

Released in 1973, *Desperado* is the Eagles’ second studio album and one of the key records from the group’s early country-rock period. The album developed the band’s distinctive blend of rock, country, and carefully arranged vocal harmonies, while its Western-themed concept gave the record a strong visual and lyrical identity. Songs such as “Tequila Sunrise” and “Desperado” became enduring favorites and helped establish the songwriting partnership of Don Henley and Glenn Frey. Produced by Glyn Johns, the album remains an important chapter in the Eagles’ rise during the early 1970s. This Japanese Asylum pressing, catalog number 16P1-2013, is a collectible edition for fans of the Eagles and classic American rock.
