A Palatable Slice of 70s Album RockReview created: 02/27/08
by:
Having lived through the 70s, this album is somewhat a victim of its own success. I have heard all the songs a million times. Most of them hold up well, some of them don't. "Hotel California" with its triple guitar melodrama is instantly known by everyone. "New Kid In Town" harkens back to their country rock roots."Life In The Fast Lane" shows how Joe Walsh added a harder edge to their laid back style. Rolling Stone listed this as the #37 album, and it sold over 10 million copies. This was their breakout album that left their country roots in the dust. I like the first two albums the best, but who am I to argue. This is a classic record.

Average music cdFunny you picked this item that I bought. Most of all my purchases on Ebay have been great ones. But not this one. This cd had a skip in a track (song) that i liked. I only bought it because it was cheap, a classic album, and it had been a while since I heard specific tracks on the cd that do not get radio play. Left nuetral feedback.

I really love this CD. I previously had the album of this but cannot play it anymore because we do not have a turntable. I also bought this for my daughter-in-law because this CD was her husbands favorite and he just passed away on December 3rd, 2007.

I love everything that has anything to do with the EAGLES!! I grew up listening to the Eagles but was never really interested back then but later on in life, I was given a DVD of their music and I fell in love with them then. Their music is addicting, I can tell you that.

What's there to say about this band and this historic album. One of the best ever!! I have the LP but wanted it on cd. This is to me the Eagles best album ever. A nice addition to my cd collection.

This all began when I was feeling stressed out at work. I ve had too many 10-hour days (while only getting paid for 8). So, I decided that it was time to get away for a few blissful days. I knew I couldn t be away from work for too long and so I d have to make my trip local. Since I live in California, I thought I d research hotels in California for a sunny getaway. To my surprise, while I was shopping, what did I run across? A CD about California hotels! I was jazzed. I thought that this could be the thing I was hoping for, so I snatched up Hotel California. In my trip planning, I wasn t...

Conventional wisdom on the 70s says they were a decade of decadence. From most historical accounts, that conventional wisdom is correct. Conventional wisdom on the Eagles, one of the leading bands of that decade of excess, says that they made mostly inconsistent albums with a few decent singles here and there. That conventional wisdom is correct (which may have to do with why their 1975 greatest hits albums is currently the number one selling album in America). But conventional wisdom also says that the Eagles did make one truly great album, that album being Hotel California. Conventional...

A transitional albumReview created: 06/23/00

Addition of Joe Walsh, transition towards a different musical style

Hotel California can best be categorized as an example of a band in transition. This is the first album recorded by the group after Joe Walsh became a full-time member, and it was probably the beginning of the end for the group's long-time bass player, Randy Meisner, who would later be replaced by Timothy B. Schmit. The personnel shuffle was not the only form of transition; with this album, the Eagles changed musically, getting away from their country-rock roots and the influences of Poco, Pure Prairie League, and similar bands, and adopting a "harder", more rock n' roll sound. On a few of...

When it comes to The Eagles, just about anybody can name a half-dozen of their greatest hits. Before Springsteen and Mellencamp paraded into our consciousness, The Eagles were almost the voice of Americana itself, albeit with a heavily white-bread accent and a John Wayne sense of fashion. However, the sad truth about Henley

As a child I remember my parents owning an 8 track tape of Hotel California by one of the greatest group of singers out there, The Eagles. Usually, I didn't care much for their taste in music but when I heard this tape, I just fell in love with it. I would listen to it over and over, and yes I even put up with that clicking sound when the tracks changed, but it was well worth it. For some reason no matter how much I loved that tape, and love to hear the songs, I had not gotten the cd for myself until this past week. I had decided to join a music club and saw the cd listed and thought wow, I...
