Fantastic Band

It is my belief that the song "Hotel California" is actually an abstract retelling of the film "Twilight: Eclipse," despite the song coming out decades earlier. I'd elaborate but I feel I wouldn't do either form of media justice.

Not Just Your Father's Music Anymore...

I recall The Eagles were one of the groups that my father adored when I was a young boy. I suppose I inherited this adoration after actually sitting down and listening to their lyrics as opposed to "noise" in the background. Their music speaks to many areas of reality which is unlike most of the mainstream music today. "Hotel California", "Long Run", "New Kid In Town", and "Peaceful Easy Feeling" are the songs I remember most from The Eagles as a young boy, and now as I am older, they are still part of my iTunes playlist. :-)

Welcome to the Hotel California

Not as flashy as disco giants, not as loud as larval headbangers, not as pretty as David Bowie or luminous as John Lennon.... There are a lot of "not as" combinations you can make for the Eagles, but they've kept what they had better than most.
