Desperado is the second album by the American rock band Eagles. It was recorded at Island Studios in London, United Kingdom and released in 1973. It's a concept album, based on the Dalton gang and the Old West. Although the title track is one of the Eagles' signature songs, it was never released as a single. The album did yield two singles, though: Tequila Sunrise and Outlaw Man.
If ever a group of musicians had a clear vision of where they wanted to go and how to get there, it was these southern California boys who built a steady rolling FM hit factory on basic tenets of Gram Parsons's invention of country-rock. For their second album, the group decided concept was most important and set out to portray themselves as keepers of the old West--their outlaw image a natural for those born unto rock and roll soil. The hits are lazy, decadent, and unrepentant; Tequila Sunrise and the title track, feature the flawless harmonies and strong vocals of Glenn Frey and Don Henley. --Rob O'Connor

I know this is not the majority opinion, but in my view, Desperado is easily the Eagles' best album and their most enduring work. Desperado is the Eagles' only concept album, and one of the best concept albums ever. Besides a lyrical cohesiveness that far exceeds most concept albums, the musicianship demonstrated in this album eclipses anything the Eagles did before or after. It shows how much was lost when Bernie Leadon left the band. The album presents the story of an outlaw using a loose historical reference to a member of the Doolin-Dalton gang at the turn of the century. The main character begins as a relative innocent with a taste for the fast life. He follows that instinct and finds himself unable or unwilling to break away from it. He senses it will overwhelm him, and in the end, it does.

The songs on the album have a subtle appeal ... they take time to appreciate, but both the lyrics and the melodies are superb. Twenty-One and Out of Control are terrific depictions of the life. Musically and lyrically, Out of Control is just that ... out of control. Tequila Sunrise and Desperado reflect the reality of the choices he's made ... when the lights are off and everyone goes home he's still all alone. He knows he's headed for trouble: You better let somebody love you, before it's too late. In Certain Kind of Fool, he chooses the wild life, but why? It wasn't for the money, at least it didn't start that way It wasn't for the running, but now he's running every day. The transformation is complete in Outlaw Man, which reflects the lonely reality of the wild life: All my friends are strangers, they quickly come and go; and all my love's in danger, cause I steal hearts and souls. In the end, the life destroys him, all alone in the center ring and with no time left to borrow. Musically, the last song on the album reprises the first: Doolin Dalton. Here, the epilogue of his life and the reasons for his untimely end are made clear: The Queen of Diamonds let you down, she was just an empty fable; the Queen of Hearts you say you never met. Your twisted fate has found you out, and it's finally turned the tables; stole your dreams and paid you with regret.

Great stuff. Hey, I know. It's only an album. Maybe it's because I spent a similar period of my life like a Desperado -- in a room full of people, yet somehow still alone. But I think it's a great album. Nothing the Eagles did before or since can touch it. .... Amazon reviewer
