00:00The Eagles are one of the biggest bands in history.
00:04They have sold over 150 million records.
00:08The Eagles are the classic rock band of all time.
00:11Their album Hotel California would come to define the 70s.
00:14It was wildly successful.
00:17It went on to sell 32 million copies.
00:20They rose up from a small little band to being one of the best known bands in the world.
00:25Yet four years later, after nearly a decade together, the band fell apart.
00:29I'm going to kill you when you get off this. I'm going to kill you.
00:33So how did a band that had spent a decade at the top suddenly collapse?
00:38The tension and loathing had just reached boiling points.
00:42There were power struggles.
00:43Festered and it came out as murder.
00:45Driven by calculated ambition.
00:48Bullying is not putting it too strongly.
00:51Sex.
00:52The prettiest girls to party after the show.
00:54The guys would get through several in a night.
00:57And drugs.
00:57And they were just destroying themselves.
01:02You create it and then it eats you.
