Our Review

Released in December 1976 after 18 months of anticipation, the Eagles’ fifth studio album Hotel California was one of the most successful albums of all-time, selling over a million copies in its first week and 10 million copies overall while garnering multiple Grammy nominations. The title track won the 1977 Grammy for Record of the Year, and the album remains a major touchstone of its era, reflecting both the glamour and the dark underside of 1970’s Los Angeles. Just as the title track eerily surmises that “you can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave” over a bed of elliptical, pristinely-recorded guitar leads, so goes the Eagles’ deceptively smooth appeal, their harmonies and indelible melodies seducing radio listeners worldwide while they recount the wreckage surrounding them. “Life in the Fast Lane,” “Victim of Love” and “New Kid In Town” reflect the group’s further slide from country-rock to the mainstream pop that had California sunshine virtually shining out from its grooves, much of this attributable to new guitarist rocker Joe Walsh replacing the country-leaning Bernie Leadon. The shift obviously worked wonders, as the group continued to attract new fans and define the sound of FM radio for a long time after.

desert island record (5 stars)
the quintissential 1970s music belly-button-pondering question: if you had to pick just 10 records you couldn't live without if you became stranded on a desert island, which ones would you pick? of course, with satellite radio and 60GB iPods, the question technically is no longer a particularly relevant one. however, it's a good one for making you pick the ten best full-length CDs (we called them records in the 70s) of all time. this is o

This is the one! (5 stars)
This one's a masterpiece, by anyone's definition. If you only have room for one Eagles CD in your library, make certain it's this one. In addition to the classics that we've come to know and love, give a listen to Joe Walsh's "Pretty Maids All In A Row" and Randy Meisner's "Try And Love Again". Great stuff!

Hotel California (5 stars)
The song Hotel California is the best song on the album. It is a great song for people of all ages. IT IS AWESOME!!!!!!!

With five number one singles, fourteen Top 40 hits, and four number one albums, the Eagles were among the most successful recording artists of the 1970s. At the end of the 20th century, two of those albums — Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975) and Hotel California — ranked among the ten best-selling albums ever, and the popularity of 2007's Long Road Out of Eden proved the Eagles' staying power in the new millenium. Though most of its members came from outside California, the group was closely...
