Eco-rock star Don Henley is flying in a comfort zone reserved for swan songs and cable TV concert specials.
No one's saying he won't be back for countless more tours -- both solo and with the Eagles -- but Henley's brimming concert last Thursday at Horseshoe felt like an episode of "VH1 Storytellers."
Don, dressed in his Eddie Bauer lumberjack plaid and drab olive cargo pants, mingled personal zingers and political salvos among the myriad platinum and gold nuggets from his catalog.
Henley's well-earned reputation for professionalism was evident in his voice. A country-battered rock and roll tenor with a dash of falsetto soul, he hasn't switched over to the gravely sounds so many of his contemporaries sound like.
Henley, who hasn't had a new solo album out in a few years, tapped into his band's repertoire with songs like "Life in the Fast Lane" and "Hotel California."
Henley lauded Ray Charles in a song "Too Far Gone" (which he rightly dedicated to many in the adoring crowd), and criticized country radio before launching into "Desperado."
"The Boys of Summer," "Sunset Grill," "In a New York Minute," "The End of the Innocence," "All She Wants to Do Is Dance," (with fake horn section) were all included, as was the politically charged Randy Newman number "Political Science."
