One of the most talked-about rock songs in the history of music, Hotel California by The Eagles, has aged perfectly to become a benchmark in rock history. Originally released as a single in February 1977, it was also part of their fifth studio album, also titled Hotel California. The song was written by Glenn Frey, Don Felder, and Don Henley. Joe Walsh also contributed by providing the idea for the dual descending arpeggio.

Don Henley sang the vocals for the original recording, and the song concluded with a dual guitar solo by Don Henley and Joe Walsh. The guitar solo of the song is also widely considered to be one of the greatest in rock history and a staple for guitar players. In fact, the guitar solo was voted the best guitar solo of all time by readers of Guitarist.

In a 2013 documentary, Glenn Frey mentioned that the song was about "a journey from innocence to experience ... that's all." The lyrics have always been a source of intrigue to listeners and critics, with many relating it to drug use.

It reached number one on Billboard's Hot 100.
