"On the Border" is the third studio album by the Eagles, released in 1974. During the making of the album, the band experienced significant changes. As the band tried to lean towards a more hard rock sound, they felt that producer Glyn Johns overemphasized their country sound. After recording only two songs, the band let go of Johns and hired Bill Szymczyk. At Frey's request they brought in guitarist Don Felder to add slide guitar to the song "Good Day in Hell". The band was so impressed that they invited Felder to become the fifth Eagle.As I have mentioned before and will likely mention again, I am not a big Eagles fan. This record has a coupe of recognizable tunes, notably Already Gone and Best of My Love. I don't mind these tracks.
