Theme
The showtime song written for the anthology was "Hotel California", which became the theme for the album.[iii] Henley said of the themes of the songs in the anthology:
They're the same themes that run through all of our piece of work: loss of innocence, the cost of naiveté, the perils of fame, of excess; exploration of the night underbelly of the American dream, idealism realized and idealism thwarted, illusion versus reality, the difficulties of balancing loving relationships and piece of work, trying to square the conflicting relationship between business and fine art; the abuse in politics, the fading away of the Sixties dream of "peace, love and understanding."[three]
On the title "Hotel California", Henley said that "the word, 'California,' carries with it all kinds of connotations, powerful imagery, mystique, etc., that fires the imaginations of people in all corners of the globe. There's a built-in mythology that comes with that word, an American cultural mythology that has been created by both the film and the music manufacture."[3] In an interview with the Dutch magazine ZigZag before long before the album'due south release, Don Henley said:
This is a concept album, there's no way to hibernate it, only it's not set in the one-time West, the cowboy thing, you know. It's more urban this time (…) It'southward our bicentennial twelvemonth, you know, the country is 200 years old, so nosotros figured since we are the Eagles and the Hawkeye is our national symbol, that nosotros were obliged to make some kind of a fiddling bicentennial statement using California as a microcosm of the whole United States, or the whole world, if you will, and to effort to wake people up and say 'We've been okay so far, for 200 years, but we're gonna have to alter if we're gonna continue to be effectually.'"[4]
Composition
Bernie Leadon, who was the master land influence in the band, left the ring later on the release of the previous album Ane of These Nights. For Hotel California, the ring made a conscious decision to movement away from country rock, and wrote some songs that are more rock & curlicue, such every bit "Victim of Love" and "Life in the Fast Lane". Leadon was replaced by Joe Walsh who provided the opening guitar riff of "Life in the Fast Lane" that was then developed into the song. The title for "Life in the Fast Lane" was inspired by a conversation betwixt Frey and his drug dealer during a high speed car ride.[5]
The chord progression and basic tune of the title track, "Hotel California", was written by Don Felder. Don Henley wrote most of the lyrics, with contributions from Glenn Frey. Henley noted that hotel had become a "literal and symbolic focal point of their lives at that fourth dimension", and it became the theme of the song. Frey wanted the song to be "more cinematic", and to write it "just like it was a pic". Henley sought inspiration for the lyrics by driving out into the desert, as well equally from films and theatre.[6] Parts of the lyrics of "Hotel California" besides as the song "Wasted Fourth dimension" were based on Henley's break up with his then girlfriend Loree Rodkin.[vii] [8]
Frey, in the "Hotel California" episode of In the Studio with Redbeard, spoke about the writing of "The Last Resort". Frey said: "It was the kickoff time that Don took it upon himself to write an ballsy story and we were already starting to worry nigh the environment… we're constantly screwing up paradise and that was the point of the song and that at some point there is going to be no more new frontiers. I mean we're putting junk, er, garbage into space now."[9]
Recording
The anthology was recorded betwixt March and October 1976 at Criteria Studios, Miami and Record Plant Studios, Los Angeles, and produced by Bill Szymczyk.[10] Although the band favored Los Angeles, the producer Szymczyk wanted to tape in Miami as he had developed a fearfulness of living on a fault line in Los Angeles after experiencing an earthquake, and a compromise was then struck to split the recording at both places.[five] While the ring were recording the album, Black Sabbath were recording Technical Ecstasy in an adjacent studio at Criteria Studios in Miami. The band was forced to stop recording on numerous occasions because Black Sabbath were too loud and the audio was coming through the wall.[11] The last track of the anthology, "The Last Resort" had to be re-recorded a number of times due to noise from the next studio.[5]
For the championship track "Hotel California", afterward the arrangement and instrumentation had been refined, several takes were recorded. The best parts were then spliced together, in all 33 edits on the 2‑inch principal, to create the final version.[10] In dissimilarity, "Victim of Dearest" was recorded in a alive session in studio apart from the lead song and the harmony on the choruses which were added subsequently. Don Felder initially sang the pb vocals in the many early takes for the song, but the ring felt that his efforts were not up to the required standard, and Henley so took over as the atomic number 82.[5]
According to Henley in a 1982 interview, the Eagles "probably peaked on Hotel California." Henley said: "Afterwards that, we started growing autonomously every bit collaborators and as friends."[12]
Artwork

The front cover artwork is a photograph of The Beverly Hills Hotel shot just before dusk by David Alexander with blueprint and art direction by Kosh.[xiii] Co-ordinate to Kosh, Henley wanted him to detect a place that tin can portray the Hotel California of the album title, and "portray information technology with a slightly sinister edge". Three hotels were photographed, and the 1 with The Beverly Hills Hotel was selected every bit the embrace. The lensman shot the epitome 60 feet higher up Sunset Boulevard on acme of a ruby-red picker.[14] Equally the image was taken from an unfamiliar vantage bespeak in fading light, most people did non initially recognize the hotel. However, when the identity of Beverly Hills Hotel was revealed, the hotel threatened legal activeness over the use of the image.[five]
The rear album comprehend was shot in the lobby of the Lido Hotel in Hollywood.[xv] [16] The gatefold epitome shows the aforementioned lobby merely filled with members of the ring and their friends. Henley said: "I wanted a collection of people from all walks of life, It's people on the edge, on the fringes of order." A shadowy figure appears on the balustrade above the lobby, which led to speculations over the person's identity.[17]
Kosh designed a Hotel California logo as a neon sign which was used on the album cover and in its promotional materials. As it proved difficult to bend real neon tubings into the desired shape of the script, the neon effect of the logo was achieved with airbrush by Bob Hickson. Additional portraits of the band used in the anthology bundle and promotional materials were shot by Norman Seeff.[fourteen]
Release
The album was released by Asylum Records on December eight, 1976, in vinyl, cassette and 8-track cartridge formats. It was considered for quadraphonic release in early 1977, but this idea was dropped following the demise of the quadraphonic format. On the album'south 25th anniversary in 2001, it was released in a Multichannel 5.1 DVD-Sound disc. On August 17, 2011, the album was released on a hybrid SACD in Japan in The Warner Premium Sound series, containing both a stereo and a five.ane mix.[18]
Original vinyl pressings of Hotel California (Elektra/Asylum catalog no. 7E-1084) had custom film labels of a bluish Hotel California logo with a yellow groundwork. These also had text engraved in the run-out groove of each side, standing an in-joke trend the band had started with their third album On the Border. The text reads: Side ane: "Is It half dozen O'Clock Notwithstanding?"; Side two: "V.O.L. Is Five-Piece Alive", indicating that the song "Victim of Beloved" was recorded in a live session in studio, with no overdubbing. Joe Walsh and Glenn Frey confirm this on the inner booklet of The Very Best Of.[19] This only referred to the instrumental rail, withal; the lead vocal and harmony for the chorus were added later. This was in response to those who criticized the Eagles' practice of copious overdubbing of instruments and that they were too clinical and soulless in the studio. They wanted to demonstrate that they could play together without overdubs if they wanted to.[5]
A 40th anniversary deluxe edition was released on November 24, 2017. The ready includes the original remastered anthology, and a 2nd CD that features 10 live tracks from the concert at The Forum, recorded in October 1976 two months before the original release of the anthology.[20]

Hotel California was met with generally positive reviews. Village Vocalisation critic Robert Christgau felt it was their "most substantial if non their most enjoyable LP",[22] while Charley Walters of Rolling Stone felt it showcased "both the best and worst tendencies of Los Angeles-situated rock".[24] Both critics picked up on the album's California themes – Christgau remarking that while it may in places be "pretentious and condescending" and that "Don Henley is incapable of conveying a mental state equally circuitous as self-criticism", the ring couldn't have written the songs on side one "without caring about their California theme downwards deep";[22] Walters in dissimilarity felt the "lyrics present a convincing and unflattering portrait of the milieu itself", and that Don Henley'south vocals express well "the weary disgust of a victim (or observer) of the region's luxurious backlog".[24] Billboard gave the anthology loftier praise: "The casually beautiful, quietly-intense multileveled song harmonies and vivid original songs that meld solid emotional words with lovely tune lines are all back in strength, keeping the Eagles at the acme of acoustic electric soft rock." It noted that, even though the anthology did not endeavor out any new departure other than the "Procol Harum-type" championship track, "the album proves that there'south a lot more left to explore profitably and artistically in the L.A. countryish-stone way."[25] [26]
Retrospective reviews have as well been positive. Robert Hilburn of the Los Angeles Times, writing after the ring bankrupt up, chosen the album "a legitimate rock masterpiece", in which the ring "examined their recurring theme near the American Dream with more precision, ability and daring than ever in such stark, uncompromising songs as "Hotel California" and "The Last Resort"."[27] William Ruhlmann from AllMusic later said "Hotel California unveiled what seemed about like a whole new band. It was a band that could be flatulent, but likewise one that made music worthy of the later tag of 'archetype stone', music advisable for the arenas and stadiums the band was playing."[21] Steve Holtje, writing for CultureCatch in 2012, felt that fifty-fifty though "an awful lot of the anthology is snarky whining from co-leaders Don Henley and Glenn Frey, two guys who didn't really seem like they had that much they could legitimately complain well-nigh", in the final analysis "Hotel California and the underrated concept album Desperado stand every bit the grouping's greatest statements".[28]
