About the Eagles:
The Eagles are an American rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1971. The founding
members were Glenn Frey (guitars, vocals), Don Henley (drums, vocals), Bernie Leadon
(guitars, vocals) and Randy Meisner (bass guitar, vocals). With five number-one
singles, six Grammy Awards, five American Music Awards, and six number-one albums,
the Eagles were one of the most successful musical acts of the 1970s. At the end of
the 20th century, two of their albums, Their Greatest Hits (1971–1975) and Hotel
California, were ranked among the 20 best-selling albums in the United States
according to the Recording Industry Association of America. Hotel California is
ranked 37th in Rolling Stone's list of "The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time" and the
band was ranked number 75 on the magazine's 2004 list of the 100 Greatest Artists of
All Time.
The Eagles are one of the world's best-selling bands of all time, having sold more
than 150 million records—100 million in the U.S. alone—including 42 million copies
of Their Greatest Hits (1971–1975) and 32 million copies of Hotel California. Their
Greatest Hits (1971–1975) was the best selling album of the 20th century in the U.S.
They are the fifth-highest-selling music act and the highest-selling American band
in U.S. history.
The band released their debut album, Eagles, in 1972, which spawned three top 40
singles: "Take It Easy," "Witchy Woman," and "Peaceful Easy Feeling." Their next
album, Desperado (1973), was less successful than the first, only reaching number 41
on the charts; neither of its singles reached the top 40. However, the album does
contain what would go on to be two of the band's most popular tracks: "Desperado"
and "Tequila Sunrise." The band released On the Border in 1974, adding guitarist Don
Felder as the fifth member midway through the recording of the album. The album
generated two top 40 singles: "Already Gone" and their first number one, "Best of My
Love."
Their 1975 album One of These Nights included three top 10 singles: "One of These
Nights," "Lyin' Eyes," and "Take It to the Limit," the first hitting the top of the
charts. Guitarist and vocalist Joe Walsh also joined the band in 1975 replacing
Leadon. The Eagles continued that success and hit their commercial peak in late 1976
with the release of Hotel California, which would go on to sell more than 16 million
copies in the U.S. alone and more than 32 million copies worldwide. The album
yielded two number-one singles, "New Kid in Town" and "Hotel California." Meisner
left the band in 1977 and was replaced by Timothy B. Schmit. They released their
last studio album for nearly 28 years in 1979 with The Long Run, which spawned three
top 10 singles: "Heartache Tonight," "The Long Run," and "I Can't Tell You Why," the
lead single being another chart-topping hit.
The Eagles disbanded in July 1980 but reunited in 1994 for the album Hell Freezes
Over, a mix of live and new studio tracks. They toured consistently and were
inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998. In 2007, the Eagles released
Long Road Out of Eden, their first full studio album in 28 years and their sixth
number-one album. The next year they launched the Long Road Out of Eden Tour in
support of the album. In 2013, they began the extended History of the Eagles Tour in
conjunction with the band's documentary release, History of the Eagles.
Following the death of Frey in January 2016, Henley stated in several interviews
that he did not think the band would perform again. However, the Eagles continued
performing from 2017 with guest musicians Deacon Frey (son of Glenn) and Vince Gill.
