Hotel California


Hotel California was the Eagles fifth album realeased in 1976 and probably their most recognized. It had three number one hits on it. The first three songs on this album reached number one. The first is probably what most people think when they think about the Eagles is Hotel California one of my favorites. It has an excellent guitar solo at the end with good vocals making it an excellent song. The next song, New Kid In Town, is another excellent song and features the only lead vocal from Glenn Frey on the album. The last number one on this album is Life In The Fast Lane is another rocking song with another guitar solo. Next is Wasted Time, one of my favorites on here. It has excellent piano music as well as great vocals from Henley. I song always sounds good, even the live versions. Then comes a reprise of Wasted Time on strings. Victim Of Love is the sixth song on this album and has excellent guitar music like the two others on this album. Pretty Maids All In A Row is a good song and Walsh's first song as an Eagle. Try And Love Again is a Meisner song. It is okay but it is the weakest song on the album. The last song is The Last Resort, a very good, long song about the old west. This is the best Eagles album. It is a must.
