The Eagles' first great masterpiece, a year before the billionaire in sales and masterpiece "Hotel California" hit the market, the Californian band invoiced this superb album that was partly the prelude to their radical turn in terms of sound which was endorsed a year later.
It is also the first work where the Frey-Henley duo consolidates its leadership by signing half of the album's songs, to the detriment of Bernie Leadon and Don Felder, both authors of only several songs.
Subjects like the song that gives title to the album, the rocker "Too Many Hands", the exciting "Alter The Thrill is Gone" and "I Wish You Peace", the instrumental "Journey of the Sorcerer" or the fantastic "Lyin' Eyes" and "Take it to the Limit", form a spectacular preview of what would soon come.
