Rolling Stone (12/11/03, p.108) - Ranked #37 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "...The highlight is the title track, a monument to the rock-aristocrat decadence of the day and a feast of triple-guitar interplay..."

5 stars Welcome To Hotel Life
The Eagles' creative pinnacle is a modern metaphor for everyday existence. "Hotel California" was the musical masterwork of a group of highly underrated intelligent musicians. I appreciate the impact of this album at age 50 far more than I did when it was released. All the songs flow together nicely making it an exceptional "concept album". A motion picture should be made out of this one.

5 stars Eagles best job!
I heard this album a few years ago and I love it! Joe Walsh's voice and guitar in "Pretty maids all in a row" is amazing and "Wasted time" is one of the greatest ballads ever. "Hotel California" is a classic for american rock lovers!!!

5 stars No Regrets!!
If you even think you like the Eagles, this is a must have album!! I bought the vinyl when it originally came out, and I am very glad that I now have it on CD. The quality is unsurpassed. No regrets here, and I'm sure that you won't have any either.

5 stars It's a Must Have in any collection
As a 41-year-old mother of two adolescents, it is my duty to ensure my children are scholars of classic rock. By far, this album is the primer to any good musical education. Both the album and the single "Hotel California" have passed the test of time and still favorites of today's youth. I'm a college-educational professional that listens to the album at least once a day. My kids have their friends listening and learning the chords that Joe Walsh and Glenn Frey made legendary on this album. By far, the favorites are "Try and Love Again" and "Last Resort". It took until my adulthood to appreciate "New Kid in Town" and "Wasted Time." I thank my late father for ensuring that I embraced this album as a child - I'm now passing it on as there is NOTHING in today's music that comes close to the achievements on this album!

5 stars Deserving of the "classic" tag
This is a hard album to review. "Hotel California" is almost sacred among music lovers, the most succesful classic rock record of all time, and the title track is neck and neck with "Stairway to Heaven" when people talk about the greatest rock song ever. So is it really all that? Well, yes and no. No, it is not all that, meaning that "Hotel California" itself - the fabled title song - is by far the best song on the album, nothing else comes close. But also yes, because even the lesser known album tracks (like the pleasant "Try And Love Again" or the grand ballad "Wasted Time") would have been the shining centerpiece of almost any other seventies rock record. Which shows just how good that one song really is. Not everything on "Hotel California" is great, but nothing is less than good. The three singles are the standouts, "Hotel California", the hard-rocking "Life In The Fast Lane" and the lovely, ballad-like "New Kid In Town", a patented Glenn Frey-tune. All of them are classics in their own right, and even though the other two do not measure up to "Hotel California", they're still much better than everything else on the album - with the possible exception of "Try And Love Again", which sports a great lead vocal by primary composer Randy Meisner, a lovely melody, and superb lead guitar playing by Glenn Frey. "Victim Of Love" is a hard, cut-and-shuffle rocker with some crashing power chords by Frey and Felder, and mean slide guitar by Joe Walsh. "Wasted Time" is a stately piano ballad with great lyrics, beautifully sung by Don Henley. Joe Walsh takes center stage for "Pretty Maids All In A Row", which is a minor song only because it sits next to the mighty "Hotel California" which overshadows everything. The closing track is another ballad, perhaps more notable for Henley's masterful vocals and angry, scorching lyrics than for its melody and arrangement, but a keeper nonetheless. So is it as great as everybody says it is? Well, if you leave off the title track, you have a terrific, four-star record in its own right, with impeccable vocals and masterful playing, superbly produced. Add "Hotel California", and you have probably the best classic rock record of all time.
