Cheap Tunes Tuesday: Eagles

by on April 9, 2019 1 comment
Fun fact: It took splicing together nearly 40 edits to get to the final version of the title track you hear on the album. The effort was certainly worth it as Hotel California has sold over FIFTY million copies worldwide. It’s #37 on the Rolling Stone 500 best of all-time list, it topped the Billboard charts and won two Grammy Awards. If you've never listened, there's never been a better time. If you have, check it out any time you'd like!

Popular music doesn’t always make for the best music. There are plenty of multi-platinum records out there that quite frankly, aren’t worth listening to. Today’s band has been has been making music since the late ‘80s, and outside of the featured album, haven’t generated a ton of accolades—but they’re a solid group.
