And here’s a video of the Iain Matthews 1973 version of Seven Bridges Road that The Eagles copied in 1980. [https://youtu.be/9-sQfOIXGb8](https://youtu.be/9-sQfOIXGb8)  
I heard Iain perform it a few years ago. He says that The Eagles should be called The Vultures for just stealing the arrangement.  
““Seven Bridges Road” written by country music singer and songwriter Steve Young and first appearing on his 1969 album, Rock Salt & Nails, was covered by Ian Matthews on his 1973 Electra album, Valley Hi, produced by Michael Nesmith. The arrangement for “Seven Bridges Road” was closely copied by the Eagles on their 1980 live album. Ian performs all the harmony vocals and Red Rhodes, one of the greatest steel guitar players, provides the steel guitar accompaniment.”

Not in play: Songwriter Bobby Troup (no “e”) became better-known to a generation of TV watchers as emergency room surgeon Dr. Joe Early on _Emergency!_, where he co-starred with his real-life wife, singer Julie London, who played nurse Dixie McCall.
