And she was terminally pretty....

On this date (5/28) back in 1977, the Eagles had the last Top 40 hit off their super-smash album "Hotel California", with "Life In The Fast Lane". Hotel California ranked #37 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 top albums of all time, selling close to 17 million copies. Life in the Fast Lane peaked at #11, which must've been a disappointment considering that the singles "Hotel California" and "New Kid In Town" both made #1. It also broke a streak of 6 straight top 5 hits. But I remember listening to this on the jukebox at the little burger-joint / pinball place we hung out at back then....
