Yes, I agree with Rob,
The end is clipped off, and the "e" is practically silent.
The recording is right.
 
Now do you want to try "Orgueil" ?   ;-)

My francais may be a bit rusty, but I'm pretty sure L'aigle
is pronounced pretty close to:

LAY' -gluh

(emphasis on first syllable, with the "uh" at the end just
barely pronounced.  There really isn't an English equivalent
to the clipped sound of the -gle ending.)  --Rob
