Their fourth studio album, Agents of Fortune, was released in 1976 and was more successful than their previous ones. The album was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America. It contained one of their most noteworthy singles, “(Don’t Fear) The Reaper.” This was their highest charting song, reaching number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was also listed on Rolling Stone’s list of the top 500 songs of all time. You may have seen it in the 2000 Saturday Night Live skit “More Cowbell,” featuring Will Ferrell and Christopher Walken.
