In 2003 and 2012, it was ranked number 37 on Rolling Rock 'south list of "The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time". A 40th anniversary special edition of Hotel California was released in November 2017.

Theme

The first song written for the album was "Hotel California", which became the theme for the album.[three] Henley said of the themes of the songs in the anthology:

They're the same themes that run through all of our work: loss of innocence, the price of naiveté, the perils of fame, of excess; exploration of the night underbelly of the American dream, idealism realized and idealism thwarted, illusion versus reality, the difficulties of balancing loving relationships and work, trying to foursquare the conflicting relationship between business and fine art; the corruption in politics, the fading away of the Sixties dream of "peace, love and agreement."[3]

On the championship "Hotel California", Henley said that "the word, 'California,' carries with information technology all kinds of connotations, powerful imagery, mystique, etc., that fires the imaginations of people in all corners of the earth. At that place's a built-in mythology that comes with that discussion, an American cultural mythology that has been created by both the picture and the music manufacture."[3] In an interview with the Dutch magazine ZigZag presently before the anthology's release, Don Henley said:

This is a concept album, there's no mode to hibernate information technology, but information technology's not fix in the erstwhile West, the cowboy thing, you know. It's more urban this time (…) Information technology's our bicentennial yr, you know, the country is 200 years old, so we figured since we are the Eagles and the Hawkeye is our national symbol, that we were obliged to make some kind of a little bicentennial statement using California as a microcosm of the whole United states, or the whole globe, if you will, and to try to wake people upwardly and say 'We've been okay so far, for 200 years, but we're gonna have to change if we're gonna proceed to be around.'"[4]

Composition

Bernie Leadon, who was the primary country influence in the band, left the band later the release of the previous album One of These Nights. For Hotel California, the band made a conscious decision to move away from country rock, and wrote some songs that are more stone & ringlet, such as "Victim of Love" and "Life in the Fast Lane". Leadon was replaced by Joe Walsh who provided the opening guitar riff of "Life in the Fast Lane" that was then developed into the song. The title for "Life in the Fast Lane" was inspired by a conversation between Frey and his drug dealer during a high speed car ride.[5]

The chord progression and bones melody of the title track, "Hotel California", was written past Don Felder. Don Henley wrote most of the lyrics, with contributions from Glenn Frey. Henley noted that hotel had get a "literal and symbolic focal bespeak of their lives at that fourth dimension", and it became the theme of the vocal. Frey wanted the song to be "more cinematic", and to write it "but like it was a movie". Henley sought inspiration for the lyrics past driving out into the desert, equally well as from films and theatre.[6] Parts of the lyrics of "Hotel California" besides equally the vocal "Wasted Time" were based on Henley's break up with his then girlfriend Loree Rodkin.[vii] [8]

Frey, in the "Hotel California" episode of In the Studio with Redbeard, spoke nigh the writing of "The Last Resort". Frey said: "It was the outset fourth dimension that Don took it upon himself to write an ballsy story and we were already starting to worry virtually the surround… we're constantly screwing up paradise and that was the betoken of the vocal and that at some indicate there is going to exist no more new frontiers. I mean nosotros're putting junk, er, garbage into infinite at present."[9]

Recording

The album was recorded betwixt March and Oct 1976 at Criteria Studios, Miami and Tape Plant Studios, Los Angeles, and produced by Bill Szymczyk.[x] Although the band favored Los Angeles, the producer Szymczyk wanted to tape in Miami as he had adult a fear of living on a fault line in Los Angeles after experiencing an earthquake, and a compromise was then struck to split the recording at both places.[5] While the ring were recording the album, Black Sabbath were recording Technical Ecstasy in an adjacent studio at Criteria Studios in Miami. The band was forced to stop recording on numerous occasions because Black Sabbath were besides loud and the sound was coming through the wall.[11] The terminal rails of the album, "The Concluding Resort" had to be re-recorded a number of times due to noise from the next studio.[5]

For the title track "Hotel California", later the organization and instrumentation had been refined, several takes were recorded. The best parts were then spliced together, in all 33 edits on the 2‑inch main, to create the final version.[10] In contrast, "Victim of Love" was recorded in a live session in studio apart from the lead vocal and the harmony on the choruses which were added later. Don Felder initially sang the lead vocals in the many early takes for the song, but the band felt that his efforts were not upward to the required standard, and Henley then took over as the lead.[5]

According to Henley in a 1982 interview, the Eagles "probably peaked on Hotel California." Henley said: "After that, nosotros started growing autonomously equally collaborators and every bit friends."[12]

Artwork

The front comprehend artwork is a photo of The Beverly Hills Hotel shot only before sunset past David Alexander with design and art management past Kosh.[13] According to Kosh, Henley wanted him to find a identify that can portray the Hotel California of the anthology title, and "portray information technology with a slightly sinister edge". 3 hotels were photographed, and the ane with The Beverly Hills Hotel was selected as the embrace. The photographer shot the image 60 anxiety higher up Sunset Boulevard on acme of a carmine picker.[14] As the epitome was taken from an unfamiliar vantage point in fading light, near people did non initially recognize the hotel. However, when the identity of Beverly Hills Hotel was revealed, the hotel threatened legal action over the apply of the paradigm.[5]

The rear album encompass was shot in the antechamber of the Lido Hotel in Hollywood.[15] [16] The gatefold image shows the same vestibule merely filled with members of the band and their friends. Henley said: "I wanted a collection of people from all walks of life, It's people on the edge, on the fringes of society." A shadowy effigy appears on the balustrade above the foyer, which led to speculations over the person's identity.[17]

Kosh designed a Hotel California logo as a neon sign which was used on the album cover and in its promotional materials. As it proved difficult to curve existent neon tubings into the desired shape of the script, the neon effect of the logo was achieved with airbrush by Bob Hickson. Additional portraits of the band used in the album package and promotional materials were shot past Norman Seeff.[14]

Release

The album was released by Asylum Records on December eight, 1976, in vinyl, cassette and 8-track cartridge formats. It was considered for quadraphonic release in early 1977, but this thought was dropped post-obit the demise of the quadraphonic format. On the album's 25th anniversary in 2001, it was released in a Multichannel 5.1 DVD-Audio disc. On August 17, 2011, the album was released on a hybrid SACD in Japan in The Warner Premium Sound series, containing both a stereo and a 5.1 mix.[eighteen]

Original vinyl pressings of Hotel California (Elektra/Asylum catalog no. 7E-1084) had custom moving-picture show labels of a blue Hotel California logo with a yellowish background. These likewise had text engraved in the run-out groove of each side, continuing an in-joke trend the band had started with their third anthology On the Border. The text reads: Side one: "Is It 6 O'Clock Yet?"; Side ii: "V.O.L. Is Five-Piece Live", indicating that the vocal "Victim of Dear" was recorded in a live session in studio, with no overdubbing. Joe Walsh and Glenn Frey ostend this on the inner booklet of The Very Best Of.[19] This merely referred to the instrumental track, nonetheless; the atomic number 82 vocal and harmony for the chorus were added later. This was in response to those who criticized the Eagles' exercise of copious overdubbing of instruments and that they were too clinical and soulless in the studio. They wanted to demonstrate that they could play together without overdubs if they wanted to.[5]

A 40th anniversary deluxe edition was released on Nov 24, 2017. The set includes the original remastered album, and a 2nd CD that features 10 live tracks from the concert at The Forum, recorded in October 1976 two months before the original release of the album.[20]

Information technology noted that, fifty-fifty though the album did not effort out any new departure other than the "Procol Harum-type" championship track, "the anthology proves that there'due south a lot more left to explore profitably and artistically in the 50.A. countryish-rock style."[25] [26]

Retrospective reviews take besides been positive. Robert Hilburn of the Los Angeles Times, writing subsequently the band broke up, chosen the album "a legitimate stone masterpiece", in which the band "examined their recurring theme about the American Dream with more precision, power and daring than ever in such stark, uncompromising songs as "Hotel California" and "The Terminal Resort"."[27] William Ruhlmann from AllMusic subsequently said "Hotel California unveiled what seemed almost like a whole new band. It was a band that could be flatulent, but also one that made music worthy of the after tag of 'classic rock', music appropriate for the arenas and stadiums the band was playing."[21] Steve Holtje, writing for CultureCatch in 2012, felt that even though "an awful lot of the album is snarky whining from co-leaders Don Henley and Glenn Frey, ii guys who didn't really seem similar they had that much they could legitimately mutter almost", in the concluding assay "Hotel California and the underrated concept anthology Desperado stand as the grouping's greatest statements".[28]
