Long Road Out of Eden Reviews (Good)
- RollingStone: Long Road Out of Eden Review (Rating: 3.5/5)
  - "Long Road Out of Eden is available direct at Eaglesband.com for $11.88, a bargain even with the misfires -- and worth it for the title song alone."
- UNCUT: Long Road Out of Eden Review (Rating: 4 Stars)
  - "The elements that made the Eagles America's biggest band - hooky, articulate songcraft, impeccable lead vocals and stunningly tight harmonies - have certainly not atrophied over the long hiatus."
- BBC: Long Road Out of Eden Review

  - "It's all a testament to the durable Eagles footprint on the pop landscape."
- EW.com: Long Road Out of Eden Review (Grade: B)
  - "Bitter or sweet, the Eagles sidestep self-parody, serving up the rarest of musical blends: freshly brewed nostalgia you'll actually want to savor."
Long Road Out of Eden Reviews (Bad)
- NY Daily News: Eagles' 'Long Road Out of Eden' is a bit too slick
  - "But where's the spark? The inspiration? In their stead, we find a grinding craft, a dutiful resolve to deliver just what's expected and nothing more."
- Canoe.ca: Long Road Out of Eden Review (Rating: 3/5)
  - "Roots-rock comedian Mojo Nixon was right: Don Henley must die. OK, not literally. But he and the rest of The Eagles definitely deserve a smack upside the collective head for their comeback set Long Road Out of Eden."
