About the band: The Eagles are an American rock band formed in Los
Angeles in 1971. They are one of the world's best-selling bands, having
sold more than 200 million records, including 100 million albums sold in
U.S alone. Their highest popularity was in the seventies, when they
released six of their seven studio albums.
About the song: the hit single Tequila sunrise from the 1973 album Desperado is a prime example of early Eagles, when their country-rock style still leaned very much toward country rather than rock. A simple melancholy ballad, lyrics that are rather run-of-the-mill, and somehow, some way, this song settles in your mind and you like it forever. The title is a play of words on the sunrise observed after a night of drinking, as well as on a well-known cocktail.
