Eagles: Hotel California (1976)

This week's episode could be heaven or it could be hell. But either way if you're looking for the best podcast about the Eagles and Hotel California, you can find it here any time of year.

 

But before we get to the album we need to determine whether this podcast is historically accurate or built on a lie. We discuss adults wearing costumes at Halloween parties, tips for hosting Thanksgiving, and whether the ghosts in Pac-Man are dead Pac-Men. We also become the best Buddy Holly podcast when we talk about the smash hit Buddy Holly musical. Finally we become the best unsolved mysteries podcast when our sleuth co-hosts try to uncover what caused the brown glob on Rob's shirt.

 

Then at (51:00) we show you the way when we discuss the 6th best selling album of all time, Hotel California by the Eagles. We discuss why people love the Eagles, why people hate the Eagles, and whether its "the Eagles", "The Eagles", or "Eagles". We also provide a Manhattan Transfer of music knowledge when we breakdown a list of songs with the best vocal arrangements. 

 

If this week's episode got your tickler file then we'll take you higher next week for the best Sly & the Family Stone podcast and the 119th greatest album of all time, Stand!
