“World class.” – Lemonrock Gig Guide

“Pitch perfect harmonies.” – Brighton Evening Argus

“A joy to watch.” – East Anglian Daily Times

“One of the best tribute bands I can remember seeing.” – Windsor Observer

“The Alter Eagles brought more than a little American West Coast harmony to a warm English West Coast St Ives – they were perfect.” – St Ives Times and Echo

“Opening with the acapella harmonies from Silver Dagger and segueing in to Take It Easy, just as The Eagles did in some of their live shows back in the 1970s, The Alter Eagles pumped out hit after Eagles hit, along with their own brand of humour and excellent communication with their audience.” – Newbury Today
