The Greatest American Rock Band Bracket!
First Round, Classic Rock Division


The Eagles (2) vs. Heart (15)

Country-rock hitmakers versus the Zep-loving Wilson sisters
The Eagles:
"The Eagles were unquestionably the biggest mainstream American rock band to emerge in the 1970s. Not only did they sell more records and concert tickets than their peers, but they captured the shifting zeitgeist of the '70s, riding the country-rock hippie hangover at the end of the '60s until it reached the slick, expensive, and expansive pop/rock of Southern California in the late '70s. "
