Legends of Rock & Roll - Eagles

Legends of Rock & Roll - Eagles

â€œAt the end of the day, it was and still is about the music.â€ - Don Henley

Welcome to another in the Legends of Rock & Roll series.

The Legends of Rock & Roll series is about the music we have listened to over the past fifty years. This is a mini-biography of the band Eagles, but even more importantly, it's about the music that was created; the songs that built a generation.

The Eagles are the best selling American band in history. How did they start? What backgrounds did they come from? Did you know that at one time or another there were seven different guys who could call themselves an Eagle?

This is the story of the band and it is the story of each of the members and how they came to be Eagles and how it all fell apart at one point, only to come back together later.

This is the Eagles.

This is an unauthorized fan tribute.
