In the City (Eagles song)
- In the City (Eagles song)
"In the City" is a song written by Joe Walsh and Barry DeVorzon, and recorded by the Eagles. The track was included on their 1979 album "The Long Run".
The track was first recorded by guitarist Walsh for the soundtrack to the 1979 movie "The Warriors" but the band liked what they heard and decided to record it as an Eagles track for "The Long Run". The only differences between the Eagles and Walsh versions is that the female backing vocals on Walsh's version was replaced by harmonies by Don Henley, Glenn Frey, Don Felder and Timothy B. Schmit. A video was made for the track featuring a staged recording session of the track with Joe Walsh playing a Gibson double neck guitar using the 12-string neck for the rhythm parts and the 6-string neck for the slide guitar parts plus Schmit played a Fender bass, Felder used a Fender Stratocaster, Henley used an 8-piece Ludwig drum kit, Frey on piano and Joe Vitale on congas.
Although not released as a single, the track became a U.S. rock radio favorite and a concert staple and was featured on the "Hell Freezes Over" album and video in 1994.
