Obviously, that was Don Henley on the lead vocal. According to Wikipedia, it's the first song that Henley and Frey collaborated on, so it seemed sort of appropriate (even if it wasn't an amazing, memorable song in its own right). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desperado_(song)
Perhaps the reason you didn't remember it as an Eagles song is because there have been several covers of it? Linda Ronstadt's is probably the best known.
But I'm glad you enjoyed it.
(I enjoyed revisiting it, too . . . and I may even go watch the incredibly long two-part documentary on the Eagles on Netflix again)
