Inside Job is the fourth solo studio album by Don Henley, the lead vocalist and drummer for the Eagles. The album was released through the Warner Bros. record label on May 23, 2000,[1] the album was Henley's last album of all-new material until the release of Cass County in 2015, as well as his first album to be recorded fully digitally. The album was the first solo album for Henley in 11 years, the album reached #7 on the charts and released two Adult Contemporary Tracks singles with "Taking You Home", and "Everything Is Different Now". "Taking You Home" was also released as a single, and on the Billboard Hot 100, it peaked at #58.
Reviewing for AllMusic, critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote of the album, "Inside Job lacks the melodic craftsmanship that made Building the Perfect Beast a blockbuster, and it isn't as focused as The End of the Innocence, but it is a solid comeback record from an artist who spent a little too long out of the spotlight."[3]
The album debuted on the Billboard 200 at No. 7 on its release in May 2000,[4] then Henley's highest-charting album.[5] It was certified Platinum by the RIAA on July 12, 2000.[6] The album has sold 1,124,000 copies in the US as of September 2015.[7]
