Don Henley Launches 'Cass County' Live In Los Angeles #SETLIST

Don Henley brought his brand new Cass County Tour to the Forum in Inglewood, CA on Friday night with a show the included thirteen of the eighteen songs on the various versions of his new album along with a smattering of songs from earlier in his career and three interesting covers.

The only nod to his work with the Eagles came with the opening number, his own version of Seven Bridges Road which the group recorded on their album Eagles Live. Interestingly, Henley completely skipped his last studio album, 2000’s Inside Job, meaning that any non-Cass County song was at least twenty-six years old going back to The End of the Innocence (1989). Overall, he hit on four tracks from that album, two from 1984’s Building the Perfect Beast and one from his solo debut, 1982’s I Can’t Stand Still.

Henley also was able to sneak in three covers from Screamin’ Jay Hawkins, Randy Newman and Tears For Fears.

For the record, the songs missing from Cass County were Waiting Tables, Too Far Gone, The Brand New Tennessee Waltz, A Younger Man and Here Come Those Tears Again.
