Kids, this is a track that set off covers at least as regards to sampling into reggae covers. Original song was by and known as Eagles, the now late Majek Fashek also known as The Rainmaker put an impressive reggae spin. Interesting Frank Ocean and 112 have also sampled this record. It was written by Don Felder, Glenn Frey and Don Henley.
