Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975) is the first greatest hits compilation by the American band Eagles, released in 1976.
This album was the first ever to be certified platinum for shipping one million copies and was later certified diamond. It has since shipped more than 29 million copies and is the best selling album of all time in the United States. The worldwide sales of Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975 are in excess of 41 million copies.[1]
While not including any material from what is generally considered the Eagles' best album, Hotel California, it serves as a summary of the band's work in its original line-up with Bernie Leadon. Greatest Hits collects nine singles and one album track not released as a single,
"Desperado," a key song in the band's repertoire presenting their early image as an echo of the outlaws from the old American west.

Of the singles, all but "Tequila Sunrise" made the Billboard Top 40, with five in the Top Ten and "One of These Nights" and "Best of My Love" both going to #1. Such chart success in the span of a little over four years made the band a formidable presence on American commercial radio in the 1970s, the album becoming a number one hit on the Billboard Top Pop Albums Charts upon release. The band's subsequent ubiquity on classic rock radio over the ensuing decades has undoubtedly been a factor in the album's spectacular sales. Beyond the the quality of the performances and catchiness of the tunes, however, specific reasons for this artifact dating from the short reign in popular music of California country rock during the early 1970s attaining the historical position as the all-time number one selling album in America, and the third best-selling album worldwide have yet to be fully explored.
