@Rickie Matthews nothing competes with the 77 version if you watch the eagles documentary you can really hear how perfect that concert was from the start to finish 77 was the prime of the eagles
Shawn & Mel - This is easily considered one of the top 10 songs of all time along with "Bohemian Rhapsody" & "Stairway To Heaven" Do yourselves a favor & watch together the 1977 Live version. The double guitar solo between Don Felder & Joe Walsh (one of my favorite guys in Rock) I barely have words for. Please do take the time for this one together. You've hit one of the biggest songs of your journey.
Joe Walsh and don felder are musical geniuses! It took me foreverrrrr to learn hotel California on guitar, still don’t have the solo completely down yet lol
@Jennifer Hurburt, well said and totally agree. It's one of those all-time iconic songs that stands the test of time that's always on that short list with Stairway, Freebird, Bohemian, etc.....
It was written by Don Henley (drums), Glenn Frey (acoustic guitar) and Don Felder (double guitar). Henley and Frey met when they were in Linda Ronstadt's back up band in 1971.
Don Henley you list first when Don Felder should be first. Felder wrote the music pre Eagles, it was on his demo tape to become a member. While with the eagles Walsh and Felder were tweaking it one day and Henley got in on writing lyrics, not sure if Frye was in on that part or not. Oh and Frey was on 12string acoustic on this one, just a technical thing being I play and sorta particular kind of guy.
@@2olvets443 In the original pressing of the album in '76 the credits are listed as Felder first, then Frye and then Henley. Henley wrote most of the lyrics, while Felder wrote all of the music, to include drums and bass. In total there were 8 guitar parts and for this performance we have 5 total (counting Felder's double-neck as 1 unit). So henceforth, being there are this many onstage, this is closest to the actual recording.
The guy in the plaid suit is the one and only Joe Walsh. He is easily one of my favorite guys in Rock! Man is crazy talented, crazy fun, & just plain crazy! Please react to "Rocky Mountain Way" (he uses the talk box) & "Life's Been Good". Two BANGERS!!
ABSOLUTELY, and he was also at Kent State when I was a student there and he was in originally in a local band on campus called THE MEASLES, then in the JAMES GANG. We used to walk to downtown Kent's bars frequented by all of us Kent State students, to hear the James Gang play. Jimmy Fox was their drummer and sometimes I would walk to class with him on certain days. We lived in the same off campus apartments for students who were in their senior year. Knew Joe Walsh casually then, but he wouldn't remember me now. Now he is also Ringo Starr's brother-in-law. He married Ringo's wife (Barbara Bach and former James Bond girl) sister. So this is the first ( and only) rock star that I can say "I knew him when" (before they became famous. JOE WALSH IS GREAT!!!!
The guy in the brick wall suit, Joe Walsh, Play with the Eagles, The James gang, A solo career. Ringo Starr‘s All-Star band. And used to destroy hotel rooms.
There is an amazing amount of talent on that stage! The 1977 live performance really does outshine this one but nearly thirty years later they still sound wonderful! Nice reaction 🌺✌️
Eagles are one of my favorite bands. Got to see the in 1994.😀❤ Try, "Love Will Keep Us Alive", "The Girl From Yesterday", "Heartache Tonight", "New Kid In Town", "The Last Resort", "I Can't Tell You Why", "Desperado", "Outlaw Man", "Doolin' Daulton", "Lying Eyes", "Seven Bridges Road", "One of These Nights", "Peaceful, Easy Feeling", "Tequila Sunrise"..... So many great songs.... 😀❤❤❤
The Eagles began in early 1971, when Linda Ronstadt and her then-manager John Boylan recruited local musicians Glenn Frey and Don Henley for her band. ... The four were signed in September 1971 to Asylum Records, the new label started by David Geffen, who was introduced to Frey by Jackson Browne.
This is such an outstanding song, thank you for reacting to it. Eagles ROCK it the hard way. The guy in the brick suit is Joe Walsh, one of the highest rated guitar players of all time. Everyone in this band is a rock legend. Unfortunately most Eagles songs are blocked but every now and again, there will be a song or two that is able to come through.
This band, they all sang… whenever they did Henley’s songs, he wanted to drum for his own songs cause he was very particular to the drum sounds and pockets for his songs
They have so many amazing songs that it is difficult to pick a favourite. However, I'm pluming for 'Love will keep us alive' - co-written by Paul Carrack [another brilliant singer and songwriter who also recorded the song (and is from Yorkshire so have to love him!)] but the harmonies on The Eagles version of the song always gives me goosebumps without fail! The lyrics are beautiful too.
What's funny is there are 3 versions of this song, done at various stages of their lives. There's the 1977, Capital Centre version when they were still young (late 20s- early 30s). The acoustic version from Hell Freezes Over in 1994 (mid - late 40s)was reworked a bit and brings out the reggae-ish flavor of the song, this one in 1998 (early 50s). AND, they are currently touring, in 2021,in their 70s playing the full HC album and a lot more, plus still sounding great. By the way, it was always fun to see the late Glenn Frey singing along, whether he was the lead or not. If he liked the line he'd mouth the words right along.
@@supercyclone9511 Yes, that is a remastered version of the original album version. It is not notably different from the original, just sound quality improved.
@@wandaminter9421 no it is, parts of it are genuinely done differently, notably the second half of the solo ending is just an exact repeat of the first half, rather than the way it was played originally
Right up there with my all time favorites!The band. The vocals. Every song you guys are playing takes me back to my youth&excellent memories. Thank you both💗
Don Henley is not always the lead singer in The Eagles. Glenn Frey (pronounced FRY) is also sings lead along with Joe Walsh (guitar), Tim Schmidt (bass) and Randy Meisner (bass). Glenn's son Deacon has taken over Glenn's singing and playing since Glenn passed away January 2016, at the age of 67 from complications of rheumatoid arthritis, acute ulcerative colitis, and pneumonia.
Yes check out the 1977 live version. Don Felder (double guitar) Don Felder (double guitar) did the music. Don Henley (,drummer) and Glenn Frey (front and center) wrote the lyrics. Don't try to figure out what the lyrics mean. Everybody has their own idea about that and Don Henley said it's about whatever you think. Just enjoy the music.
I love the line "You can check out anytime but you can never leave"..It's about the greed and the L.A. rich lifestyle. There is more to it than that though. Incredible song. You should watch the other live version in the 70's.
Check Phil Collins In the Air Tonight, drummer singer of Genesis. Don Henley the drummer and Glen Fry guitarist were the main singers. Also Joe Walsh is a singer. He wrote Rocky Mountain high which is a must to see.
❤️y’all but you are late. Loved this song at age of 5 when my aunt played it in her Camaro with me with windows down. Didn’t understand it then but loved it anyway.
Eagles performed all songs without any backup singers, the group did it all. I saw the Eagles and Pink Floyd in the same year, the difference in the two, The Eagles was a band you go to hear and Pink Floyd you go to see. Both were phenomenal.
Hotel California was released in 1976 on the album of the same name and was written by Don Felder, Don Henley and Glenn Frey. At the time of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction, the band had completed their tour for Hell Freezes Over which started in 1994. During Hell Freezes Over, the lineup for the band was just like during The Long Run. Don Henley, Glenn Frey, Don Felder Joe Walsh and Timothy B. Schmit. For the Hall of Fame induction, the founding members Bernie Leadon and Randy Meisner returned. Bernie left after the tour for the album One of These Nights and Randy left after the tour for the album Hotel California. Joe Walsh’s brick suit is a tribute to his days of wrecking hotels. (See Life’s Been Good spoken word edition for the backstory) Don Felder is the one playing the Gibson EDS-1275 and Don Henley is the drummer singing lead vocals For the ceremony, The Eagles performed Take it Easy and the one you watched, Hotel California. The meaning for Hotel California is that there’s a dark underside to the American Dream and how the dream can turn into the nightmare according to Don Henley but if you want to learn more about the writing of the song, you need to buy a 2-disc compilation album called The Very Best of The Eagles. With the album, there’s a booklet called Conversations With Don Henley and Glenn Frey where they were interviewed on the writing of each song on that album.
when I was a kid I literally thought this song was about a man ending up in a haunted hotel with spirits and he is now trapped there forever lol- I was scared to listen to it when my mom played it
@@Jimbodisfan I saw them at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. They had thunder and lightning effects at the beginning of the show and then it started to lightly rain. Too cool.
I live in Cleveland and the Rock and Roll hall of fame and Museum set across from where the Browns play and on the dock of Lake Erie. You should come up on either Mondays or Fridays. It's cheap and they'll show you what all the music inductees donated to the museum. The Eagles have a double guitar and a pink light that says Hotel California (it was their biggest selling album).
Stevie Nicks is the She in the song. The Mission was a recording studio. Everyone feel in love with her. Everyone wanted to work with her. No one could ever escape her magic. She was involved with Don Henley, Joe Walsh as well as Lindsay Buckingham, Mick Fleetwood.
Always been my dad's favorite song and over the years became one my favorites too. If you want to see some crazy drumming & singing, please react to Phil Collins - In the air tonight, the LIVE version. You'll be blown away for sure!
I just found your channel a few weeks ago, so I’m catching up. I’m obsessed with your channel and the variety of music you review. I can’t quite find your SMedia sites but I’ll keep searching. Prob already answered but Don Henley (drummer / lead vocals) and Glenn Frey wrote the song. Thank you so much for having this channel. It’s a blast.
The Eagles are the American version of The Beatles. Don Henley is John Lennon and Glenn Frey is Paul McCartney. Just like The Beatles they wrote together and separately most of the songs. Glenn was also the lead singer on some of their other great songs like "Lyin Eyes". Both Don and Glenn had big solo careers in the 80s. Don Henley's "Boys Of Summer" is one of the greatest songs of all time. Glenn not only had a lot of hit songs in the 80s("The Heat Is On"), but he became a fitness guru and acted in a few movies and tv shows. Including starring in a groundbreaking episode of Miami Vice. Glenn also supplied that episode with a song that became a mega hit "Smuggler's Blues". Which is a brilliant song! Don Henley and Glenn Frey(RIP) are icons.
the best group ever, drinking song. and we have all been there. great work guys , steel knife, drugs take you there every time, He is the lead singer and the best voice , love him.
Hotel California used to be synonymum for a drug addiction. That´s why it´s hard to leave and that´s why it was full of rich people and he saw mirrors on the ceiling. He thought about a light in the darkness but it was a trap.
Try “Boys of Summer”, with the same lead singer, Don Henley! He is AWESOME!! After the Eagles split he went off on his own….everything they TOUCH (both the Eagles and Henley) is GOLD!!!❤
The guy with the double neck guitar wrote the lick and played it for the drummer and the guy mouthing the words and the three of them basically wrote it together. 4 of the 5 guys sing lead on other songs. Listen to Life in the fast lane!
"You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave".. It's very hard to sing and play drums at the same time, but Don Henley does it so well...
Believe or not,there is an even better live version of this,from the 70s
You're absolutely right! They should totally react to that earlier version.
Yessss! I requested it also- the BEST live version in my strong opinion!!
Definitely!!
one from the 70's is definately goat but considering their age this performance was AMAZING
@Rickie Matthews nothing competes with the 77 version if you watch the eagles documentary you can really hear how perfect that concert was from the start to finish 77 was the prime of the eagles
The Eagles were known for having incredible harmonies!! They have so many hit songs. They all sing lead vocals depending on the song.
Way too much talent in 1 band, all their stuff rocks. Very iconic band.
Shawn & Mel - This is easily considered one of the top 10 songs of all time along with "Bohemian Rhapsody" & "Stairway To Heaven" Do yourselves a favor & watch together the 1977 Live version.

It only got 21 million view 😂
From start to finish that song is 100% perfect. This will I've forever!! Thank you for the reaction 👍

He's all over that! 😊😆😉

….and Joe Walsh is EXCELLENT, as is Don Feldman! Miss Glenn Frye so much, and ALL OF THEM ARE FREAKIN FANTASTIC!!!
After 40 years they are simply PERFECT! Goosebumps!
Being 55 yrs old, I grew up listening to the Eagles and have seen them twice in concert and they are amazing live❤
Yes❤
The message:
1. The woman is the entertainment industry.
2. You can check out but you can never leave.
The Eagles “ Life in the fast lane “ is even better. That’s just my opinion , y’all check it out. Much love! ❤️
Saw them LIVE in AL in 1977!! 21,000 lighters turned up! Highlight of MY LIFE!! React 2 that one!!! GREATEST BAND EVER!!
The Eagles are legendary among rock fans! They don't have even one bad song, and the Hotel California album is one of the most beautiful ever written.
Yessss. It's actually about heroine addiction. "You can check in anytime you like but you just can't leave..."
Never seen a drummer, singer? Watch Phil Collins , In The Air.
or skillet
Wish I could add about 1,000 likes to this lol
Yesssssss the live version also!
Or Roger Taylor of Queen.
Paper Lace had lead singer/drummer. And, the Monkees sometimes.

Great songs, but also Phil Collins plays the drums and sings.
One of the Best Groups Ever.
To see these guys in person is a Privelege. "You can check out any time you want but you can never leave. "
@@chriswildhaber35 Don Henley is the drummer.
@@psmolek7438 yes I know and lead singer on some of their songs.
Saw the Hell Freezes over concert in Birmingham Al in 94
The guy in the brick suit is my favorite, that's Joe Walsh!
This song can only truly be appreciated while sitting on a bare floor listening to this thru headphones as it comes off an LP. #memories

You need to watch Phil Collins live, singing ‘In the Air Tonight’
Oh yeah. Another great song, and performance.
You can tell a band is talented when they all go their separate ways and are successful individually.

This SONG IS ONE OF MY
FAVORITES!!!!! The lyrics is a WOW!!!!!!!!!!!💜💚💙💜💚💙
I agree with everyone..I LOVE the Eagles...and you've just gotten a TASTE of WHY they are in the HALL OF FAME...

Definitely a rabbit hole. Lyrics are dark-dealing with living in a hedonistic society-wanting a different life but stuck in the matrix.
1977 live version!!
Then Take it the limit.
With Randy Meissner. Legacy album has the audio. Must heart.
You never never stop during the guitar solo.
I Can't Tell You Why is a 🔥 song.
Arguably one of their greatest hits....and I do say "Arguably" because they have sooooo many great songs and all hit you little different
The eagles were great .I saw them in the 70s. The best song ever!
1) Never talk during a lead 2) Shut up and listen during a lead 3) Don't interrupt a lead
Or a guitar duet.
This is probably the.Most memorable and important times they’ve ever played this song in their decades long careers . Hall of Fame

Definitely must watch the Live 70’s version. And ALL of them sing! New subscriber. Love, from the Great State of Oklahoma, USA 🤍
"You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave".. It's very hard to sing and play drums at the same time, but Don Henley does it so well...
Hopefully y'all have went back and watched the older live version. It's awesome!
It was really fun listening to this song with you guys..such an awesome song.
The eagles have landed.❤
You must watch "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" with George Harrison's son, the hall of Fame musicians, and PRINCE in 2004.
