Steve Miller Band - Fly Like an Eagle (30th Anniversary Special Limited Edition) Album

The Fly Like An Eagle album is Steve Miller at his pop-perfection best. The disc is so great it feels more like a greatest hits collection than anything else. Miller has an uncanny mastery of the indelibly catchy pop song yielding not only the FM-staple title track (since successfully revived by Seal), but an almost embarrassing plethora of other seemingly simple, hook-laden songs (including the standout "Wild Mountain Honey" as well as the hit singles "Take the Money and Run" and "Rock'n Me"). All of the tunes are great, the playing is skilled without sounding slick, and the production is quite polished. This is the album that reestablished Miller with the critics after he fell from grace with Rock Love and deservedly so. Miller has never been better.
