Possibly the worst thing to ever happen to Joe Walsh and enemy to Urban Achiever’s everywhere, The Eagles, released their 26x platinum (stateside) definitive statement in December of 1976.
It is considered by many to be one of the best albums of all time.
Let’s talk The Eagles, Hotel California!
Just listed to the podcast. Why are you so unkind? Admittedly there was a time in my life when I hated the Eagles and everything that they represented. But I’m the last 10 years, as I have hit my late 50s and early 60s, I have come to admire the album. Maybe life has caught up with me, suffering from anxiety and depression, I can let the melodies and harmonies wash over me.
Also, for me, The Last Resort is an overlooked masterpiece. I’m not a musician so maybe on that level it fails. But as a musical journey for the listener it is reminiscent of Heroes and Villains and Surf’s Up. Oh, OK I can see your eyes raised to the heavens from here in a Brisbane Australia.
