    This is the music I grew up on. The Eagles were a great 70's band with so many hit songs. They were known for their great harmonies. "Take It Easy", "Lyin' Eyes", "Witchy Woman", "Desperado", "Already Gone", "Best of My Love", "One Of These Nights", "Take It To The Limit", "New Kid In Town" etc. Before they went solo they were the back up band for Linda Ronstadt.

    It seems the older this song gets, the more liked and respected it becomes.

    The Hotle California is a Halfway House for the Rich and Famous. They go There to clean themselves of Substance Abuse and Alcoholism. "Stab it with their steely knives but they just can't kill the Beast." The (Beast) is their (Addiction) they cannot control. "You can check out anytime you like but you can never leave." Once an addict always an addict. The alcoholic and drug addict will always have the temptation of reverting to their old addictions. One of the greatest songs ever written. Brilliant!

    The music was written by Don Felder (White Double necked guitar) and Don Henley left the Whiskey-a-gogo club in LA, drunk one night and drove all the way to Needles, CA to find some peyote. On the way he wrote the lyrics, passing by desert hotels and contemplating his life. Henley says this is about "Someone losing their innocence, going from adolescence to adulthood, and not being able to go back" " Once you accept the responsibilities of adulthood, you can never regain that childhood innocence. " He loves that fact that hundreds of other meanings have popped up for many people. " Just a simple song about growing up."

    You’re exactly right in saying the visual gives you a bigger appreciation for the dueling guitars part. I thought the same the first time I saw this video. Never picked up on this as much when listening to the song on the radio.

      Yes, this one is a perfect rendition and there is another one out there. That’s my favorite song of theirs that gets blocked, blocked and blocked. I can’t stand on Henley for that. I also blame Glenn Frey before he died. It’s just plain greed. But I do love their music the one I’d love you to hear & react to is Take It To The Limit, live and I believe the same concert. Bass player, Randy Meisner plays and sings this song, but he and the two founders Henley & Frey didn’t get along and shortly after the perfect concert I’m talking about, Randy and Glen Frey came to physical blows, and Randy left. Randy was very shy and didn’t like the spotlight. take it to the limit was the usual encore, and he was afraid he could not hit the high notes that night. Frey kept on him and on him until they physically fought and Randy not long after 😢. Noone can sing it like Randy Meisner did. Joe Walsh is also a favorite because he’s such a cut up & so talented! joe is the one in the bandanna and Randy Meisner, my favorite because he is so humble, talented and kind is in this video too, on the far left with the long dark hair. If you can find take it to the limit live from i think this same concert, Randy will be wearing a light plaid shirt.Please try to do it. It’s strong with blocking but it’s even a more perfect song than this one played in concert. I just want so many people to know about that song and Randy’s beautiful voice so I try to get as many people as I can to react to it Love your channel!

    You chose the right title “Is this what perfect looks like”.
    It’s such a great album. I think another song, that’s actually musically very different, has the same theme, “Life in the fast lane”, you should check it out. However my favorite from the album is “the last resort”, which gives me goosebumps each time.
    All the best from the Netherlands!

    You're right, watching Don Felder and Joe Walsh play is insane! They compliment each other perfectly. I don't mean to take you on another tangent, but another incredible song that showcased guitar playing right around that time was "Sultans of Swing" by Dire Straits... if you get the chance.

    This is my first Bars & Barbells video. The young lady looks like a combination of a young Beverly D'Angelo and Liv Tyler. I _LOVE_ the Eagles and this song is one of my all-time favorites. Their live shows are amazingly true to the studio versions. They harmonize on stage (vocally) better than any band I've heard.
