Three men have been charged with attempting to sell nearly 100 pages of handwritten lyrics and notes from the Eagles’ biggest-selling album, “Hotel California,” that had been stolen from singer Don Henley in the late 1970s.
Released in 1976, the album has sold over 30 million copies and is one of the biggest selling records of all time. Prosecutors said the papers were valued at over $1 million. “Rather than making any effort to ensure they actually had rightful ownership, the defendants responded by engaging in a years-long campaign to prevent Henley from recovering the manuscripts,” prosecutors said.“The DA’s office alleges criminality where none exists and unfairly tarnishes the reputations of well-respected professionals. We will fight these unjustified charges vigorously,” the statement read.
