Hell Freezes Over is an album by the Eagles, released in 1994 . The album contains four new studio tracks and eleven tracks recorded live for an MTV special. The album was also released in video form and is one of the best-selling concert DVDs in history. The DVD is technically notable for being one of the first music releases to feature a DTS format soundtrack.
The album name is in reference to a quote by Don Henley after the band's breakup in 1980; he commented that the band would play together again "when Hell freezes over." One of the most notable tracks is a new arrangement of "Hotel California" that features an extended acoustic guitar and percussion opening. At the beginning of the concert, Glenn Frey stated to the audience jokingly that "For the record, we never broke up, we just took a 14 year vacation". The new song "Get Over It" became a modest hit, and another new song, "Love Will Keep Us Alive", reached #1 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart.
The album went to #1 on the Billboard album chart upon its release where it stayed for two weeks.
The XRCD2 offers a much better sound as the regular release. Give it a listen, it´s simply amazing!
