  • The Eagles' 5 No. 1 Hits May Surprise You (Hint: 'Already Gone' Ain't One)

    Today marks the 40th anniversary of The Eagles' "One of These Nights" getting to no. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Getting to the top of the pop charts is one of the most difficult accomplishments in music, even for a major act (and even more difficult than topping the Billboard 200 albums chart). The Eagles has managed to do it five times across the band's lengthy career, and that's nothing to yawn at. Music Times decided to check out what five songs managed to peak on the chart...and were fairly surprised at what we found. If you were expecting "Take It Easy," "Peaceful Easy Feeling," "Already Gone" or other lasting hits from Their Greatest Hits...be prepared to be surprised.

  • Brad Paisley Performs 'Dead Flowers' With the Rolling Stones in Nashville [WATCH]

    In the midst of the Rolling Stones' Zip Code Tour, the legendary group stopped by Nashville for a 20-song set highlighting their country-favored sounds in a gesture to Music City. Stone's classics including "Wild Horses," "Dead Flowers" and "Faraway Eyes" were performed with a bit more twang while Mick Jagger paraded around in a cowboy hat.

  • One Direction, Katy Perry Top Billboard's Music 'Money Makers' List [FULL LIST]

    Forbes is usually the go-to for celebrity earnings and net worth but Billboard has assembled its own "money makers" list based exclusively on what performers brought in from musical earnings, such as live revenues and album sales (no sponsorship money or other other jobs outside of the industry...sorry Dr. Dre). When considered for music-based earnings, One Direction topped the chart for the last year, bringing in $46 million. Zayn Malik may want to reconsider some recent career decisions.

  • 9 Longest Streaks in Billboard 200 Top 5: Taylor Swift, Michael Jackson, Garth Brooks and More

    Taylor Swift and her album '1989' continued to make history last week as it became only the ninth album to ever spend each of its first 24 weeks in the Top 5 of the Billboard 200. That makes it the country/pop star's most consistent album to date in terms of chart placement. So what other hot acts have gotten to at least 24 weeks? Michael Jackson, Garth Brooks and the Backstreet Boys number among them.

  • Ukraine and 5 Other (Band) Situations Bound to Fall Apart: The Wu-Tang Clan, The Libertines and Everything Scott Weiland

    Good news out of Eastern Europe today, as a group of the continent's leaders announced that a ceasefire had been reached between the government of Ukraine and the rebellious faction in the southeast of the country. You can probably hedge bets that shots will be fired soon enough however. After all, the last time the parties arrived at a ceasefire (September of 2014), it had collapsed by the end of the year. Other things that won't be surprising when they collapse: The reunions of these beloved bands.

  • Highest Paid Musicians 2014: Dr. Dre Tops The List (Duh) but Beyoncé, One Direction and Justin Bieber Make Bank as Well

    Hip-hop might be the genre that puts the most emphasis on dollars earned but we'd be kidding ourselves if big acts from every scene had their eyes on their wallets. And so do we as fans...just Google an act and see "net worth" doesn't come up as a popular search term. Forbes released its annual list of the Top 30 highest earning musicians from the previous year and you probably guessed who took the top spot: Dr. Dre.

  • Celebrating Jackson Browne: Producers Tamara Saviano and Jimmy LaFave Talk 'Looking Into You' and the Art of Tribute Albums

    Singer-songwriter Jimmy LaFave and Dallas entrepreneur Kelcy Warren opened their Music Road Records label in 2007, releasing the Woody Guthrie tribute album 'Ribbon of Highway Endless Skyway' the following year. The partnership led to a slew of other releases featuring original material but Warren had an itch to scratch. The co-founder's extreme fandom for one of the most prolific songwriters around sparked what would become the pair's second tribute effort: 'Looking Into You: A Tribute to Jackson Browne,' which came out in January. Artists like Bruce Springsteen, Bonnie Raitt and Don Henley came running.
