The Eagles were the most popular American rock band on the planet between 1972 and 1980. Early on, they were known for easygoing country-rock tunes about loose women from Winslow, Arizona, and loose women who are also liars from Los Angeles, California. These songs are collected on the 1976 compilation Their Greatest Hits (1971–75), the bestselling album of the twentieth century, and the second-biggest seller overall, trailing only Michael Jackson’s Thriller.
