"Hotel California" by Eagles was released as a single 47 years ago tomorrow. This great song may be the reason that I eventually moved to California & that I still wish I had Don Henley's Afro. You can check out Don's hair here, but you can NEVER leave. youtube.com/watch?v=09839D…
@Wildaboutmusic @Rhino_Records “Great song” is definitely in the ears of the holder. If great songs are supposed to have a shelf life, mine was about 3 listens.
@Wildaboutmusic Yup, I had my afro period in the last 1970s.
@Wildaboutmusic When this song came out, we all talked about moving to California. Never happened, but the album was so influential to all of us back then. By the way, the Hotel California tour amazing.
@Wildaboutmusic In a recent interview with Martin Barre for a radio show I'm doing I asked for some of his favorite songs to make him the DJ for a day. He chose Hendrix, Zeppelin, Beatles, Cream ("the go to album on how to play rock guitar"), and Hotel California, but changed it to NY Minute.
