Hotel California New Kid in Town
Life in the Fast Lane Try and Love Again
Wasted Time Victim of Love
The Last Resort Pretty Maids All in a Row
Classic Albums Live performs the Eagles' Hotel California!
When Glenn Frey passed, we were all left scrambling for an answer. It was just after David Bowie had passed, and there was a sense of mild panic. It was as though the music we all grew up with was coming up on its expiration date.
The Eagles are the greatest American band inside of Classic Albums Live. We've had long talks about this: some argue for The Doors while others say it's CCR. But in the end, it's the Eagles. They've sold the most records and their songs endure and will continue to endure for generations to come.
We all have our personal image of what the Hotel California looks like; we can see ourselves in the lobby. We know what the staff looks like and we feel the vibe. That's the secret ingredient in making a classic album – being able to insert yourself into it.
Hotel California is one of the greatest albums ever made. There's a reason why New Kid in Town won a Grammy®. It's got those great deep cuts – the ones that don’t get radio play. Those are the ones that are like finding gold on a beach. Wasted Time is the ultimate heartache song, Pretty Maids all in a Row is Joe Walsh’s tour de force, and The Last Resort should be taught in schools.
Classic Albums Live is simple in its quest: recreate the greatest albums note-for-note, cut-for-cut. When you have amazing songs, a perfect album and a deep love of music, nothing else needed. Hotel California features Classic Albums Live at its best. And we plan to continue to pay the ultimate respect to this great work of art.
