abstract
  • %22The Long Run%22 is a song written by Don Henley and Glenn Frey and recorded by the Eagles. The sound of the song is viewed as a tribute to the Stax / Memphis rhythm and blues sound. It was the title track of their album The Long Run and was released as a single in November 1979. It reached #8 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in early 1980. It was the second of three singles released from The Long Run album, preceded by %22Heartache Tonight,%22 which reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in November 1979, and followed by %22I Can't Tell You Why,%22 which also reached #8 on the Billboard Hot 100, in the spring of 1980.The song was featured on the TV show WKRP in Cincinnati on the episode %22The Doctor's Daughter%22. Specifically, Dr. Johnny Fever decides to air the recording and his programming director, Andy Travis is hysterical with delight that his popular DJ is playing a hit record for once.Music critic Dave Marsh states in his book %22The Heart of Rock & Soul: The 1001 Greatest Singles Ever Made%22 that the song %22The Long Run%22 is more than just a tribute, calling it a complete ripoff of the 1972 R&B song %22Tryin' To Live My Life Without You%22 recorded by Otis Clay and written by Eugene Williams, the latter of which was covered by Bob Seger in 1981.
