  • Formed in 1971 in Los Angeles, California
     
  • From their 1972 self-titled debut album, "Take It Easy" became the Eagles' first Top 20 hit, reaching No. 12 on Billboard's Hot 100. They had their first Billboard 200 No. 1 album with 1975's One Of These Nights, but the band reached a new level with the 1976 release of their chart-topping smash, Hotel California.
     
  • The Eagles won their first career GRAMMY for 1975 for Best Pop Vocal Performance By A Duo, Group Or Chorus for "Lyin' Eyes."
