Free Music: The Eagles
Veteran country-rockers the Eagles have posted free audio and
video streams of a live rendition of "Tequila Sunrise" on MP3.com. The
song, taken from a recent rehearsal performance, represents the first time
the reunited band has made any of its material available online. As part
of the same promotion, the group is also offering fans a chance to win
front-row tickets and transportation to its New Year's Eve show at the
Staples Center in Los Angeles. The Eagles, who hit it big in the '70s,
recently announced that they would use their warmup gigs in Las Vegas on
Dec. 28–29 and the Dec. 31 show to see how they might feel about the
idea of recording their first album in 20 years. The RIAA named the band's
Eagles Greatest Hits, 1971–1975 (1975) as the best-selling
album of the century.
