Eagles Hotel California Song Facts
"Hotel California" is the title track from the Eagles' album of the same name and was released in February 1977. Writing credits for Hotel California are shared by Don Felder (music), Don Henley, and Glenn Frey (lyrics). Joe Walsh came up with the dual-guitar descending arpeggio part that ends 'Hotel California'. The Eagles' original recording of 'Hotel California' features Henley singing the lead vocals, and concludes with an electric guitar solo performed by both Walsh and Felder, in which they both take turns of playing lead before harmonizing and playing the aforementioned arpeggio towards the 'Hotel California' fade out.

'Hotel California' by Eagles is about materialism and excess. California is used as the setting, but Hotel California could relate to anywhere in America.

Felder says the Eagles group recorded Hotel California about a year after he did the original Hotel California demo, and in the Hotel California session, he started to improvise the guitar part at the end. Henley stopped him and demanded that he do it exactly like the Hotel California demo.
