Eagles at the Spectrum in Philadelphia – July 27-28, 1976

The Eagles at the Spectrum in Philadelphia was a two-night concert that featured Boz Scaggs as their opener. The Eagles had been at the Spectrum earlier on May 17, 1975, so this was a return performance for them. Glenn even wore his Phillie shirt, and Don Felder wore a NHL Philadelphia Flyers shirt.

This was a part of the “One of These Nights” tour.

Courier-Post (Camden, NJ) – July 24, 1976

“Opening the show for the Eagles was Boz Scaggs and Band, one of the funkiest white soul bands this side of Hall and Oates.”

Concert review in the Courier-Post (Camden, NJ) – July 28, 1976

“Any apprehension over the injection of a new element into an established formula was quickly eliminated when it became apparent that Walsh’s soaring guitar work added a fresh dimension to the Eagles sound – a somewhat lustier approach.”
