"Eagles Live" is the first live album by the American rock band Eagles, a two-LP set released in 1980. The Eagles broke up on July 31, 1980 after their concert at Long Beach. However, the band still owed Warners a live record from the tour. "Eagles Live" (released that November) was mixed by Glenn Frey and Don Henley on opposite coasts - the two decided they could not stand to be in the same state, let alone the same studio, and as Bill Szymczyk put it, the record's perfect three-part harmonies were fixed "courtesy of Federal Express." The 1983 "Rolling Stone Record Guide" said it is "perhaps the most heavily overdubbed [live album] in history." After the credits that list no fewer than five attorneys, the album's liner notes simply say, "Thank you and goodnight."

Vinyl record notes

*The record labels were custom, showing a birds nest filled with eggs and hand grenades.

*Original pressings of this double-album had text engraved in the carry-out grooves on each side:
*Side 1: Is it illegal to yell "movie!" in a firehouse?
*Side 2: "Hello, Federal?...Ship it!"
*Side 3: Not Tonight, Thanks...
*Side 4: ...Ive gotta rest up for my monster"

*The carry-out groove of the fourth side did not fade to silence as was customary for the vast majority of records. Instead, the crowd noise continued, even into the final-loop groove. Thus for those listening on manual turntables, the applause would not end until the listener removed the stylus from the disc.
