Review: The Illegal Eagles at Chesterfield's Winding Wheel
This great tribute band had the hall rocking to a succession of hits from Withy Woman and Desperado to Lyin’ Eyes, and included a fitting tribute to Glenn Frey in Take it to the Limit with superb vocals from Christian Phillips.
The Joe Walsh classic Life’s Been Good opened the second half in great style and Gary Hicklin’s version of Wasted Time featuring vocals and solo piano, was my particular highlight of many in a fantastic concert.

The Illegal Eagles left the Winding Wheel with a fantastic ovation and the promise to return next year. It can’t come soon enough.
