Hotel California - Eagles (1976)
Manage episode 336275517 series 3244045
There isn't much to be said about the 1976 masterpiece from the Eagles, 'Hotel California,' that hasn't already been said. And yet, in the Season Two premiere of Listen Closely with Jon & Chris, the two manage to devote an entire hour to the album. Featuring their trademark polished harmonies, Hotel California also includes some of the finest work that Don Henley and Glenn Frey ever turned out (and a stellar songwriting cameo from then Eagles newcomer, Joe Walsh). With a long and weird summer quickly coming to a close, and a season of uncertainty looming on the horizon, Jon and Chris discuss how this groundbreaking album is the perfect soundtrack to paradise lost, to the summer that slipped away, and- as Chris put it- to dashed dreams.
