Los Eagles surgieron en una época donde el rock y la música country experimentaban una simbiosis única. La banda se formó en 1971 en Los Ángeles, California, cuando Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Bernie Leadon y Randy Meisner unieron fuerzas. Los cuatro músicos se habían conocido mientras tocaban como banda de respaldo para Linda Ronstadt. Las afinidades musicales y personales les llevaron a forjar su propio camino, creando un sonido que resonaría profundamente en la cultura estadounidense.
Su álbum debut, Eagles, se lanzó en 1972 y pronto demostró ser un éxito rotundo. Sencillos como "Take It Easy" y "Witchy Woman" ayudaron a definir el sonido de la banda, una mezcla perfecta de armonías vocales y guitarra elegante. Este disco los estableció como una fuerza a tener en cuenta en la escena del rock & roll.
El siguiente álbum, Desperado (1973), reforzó aún más su reputación e introdujo el tema recurrente de los forajidos del Viejo Oeste. Aunque inicialmente no fue tan exitoso como su anterior trabajo, canciones como "Desperado" se convirtieron en clásicos con el tiempo.

Eagles - alice, who the fuck is alice?
Sally called, when she got the word,
She said "i suppose you've heard about alice."
So, i rushed to the window, and i looked outside,
And i could hardly believe my eyes,
A big limousine pulled slowly into alice's drive.
I don't know why she's leaving, or where she's gonna
Go,
I guess she's got her reasons but i just don't wanna
Know,
'cause for twenty four years i've been living next
Door to
Alice
Alice, who the fuck is alice ???
Twenty four years, just waitin' for a chance,
To tell her how i'm feeling, maybe get a second
Glance,
Now i've gotta get used to not living next door to
Alice.
Alice, who the fuck is alice ???
We grew up together, two kids in the park,
Carved our initials deep in the bark......
Me and alice.
Now she walks to the door with her head held high,
And just for a moment, i caught her eye,
As the big limousine pulled slowly out of alice's
Drive.
I don't know why she's leaving, or where she's gonna
Go,
I guess she's got her reasons but i just don't wanna
Know,
'cause for twenty four years i've been living next
Door to
Alice
Alice, who the fuck is alice ???
Twenty four years, just waitin' for a chance,
To tell her how i'm feeling, maybe get a second
Glance,
Now i've gotta get used to not living next door to
Alice.
Alice, who the fuck is alice ???
Then sally called back, and asked how i felt,
She said "i know how to help you, get over alice."
She said "now, alice is gone, but i'm still here.
And you know i've been waiting twenty four
Years.........."
And the big limousine disappeared.......
I don't why why she's leaving, or where she's gonna
Go,
I guess she's got her reasons but i just don't wanna
Know,
'cause for twenty four years i've been living next
Door to
Alice.
Alice, who the fuck is alice ???
Twenty four years, just waitin' for a chance,
To tell her how i feel and maybe get a second glance,
But i'll never get used to not living next door to
Alice.
Alice, who the fuck is alice ???
No, i'll never get used to not living next door to
Alice...
