Eagles Hotel California Live 1977 (Reaction!)

[@SebsDuran]

We had this video up previously. We took it down beacuse many of you warned me how many other channels got taken down with this reaction. I've seen more reactions go up so I wanted to risk it again just because it was such a good moment. This was a video we made explaining why we took it down before. Anyway, if this gets us copyright struck... whoops! kzbin.info/www/bejne/r52wZGx4bbqmg9U

The price of living in the best era for popular music is being old now. At 72, I believe it was well worth it. There was a time the music industry hired musicians, not dancers they passed off as musicians with computers. Most musicians also wrote their own songs. Today a handful of writers write the songs for many musicians. We old guys love watching younger generations appreciate the music we grew up with. Thank you.

Agreed, overheard younger generation in shock, they play more than 1 instrument & they sing? How is that possible? It's possible because they're musicians, singer/songwriters. Confirmed by grandson. You always have the best music, how do you do that? Be over 70 years old & know what good music sounds like, that's how.

[@danwesterhouse6627]

Can't agree more. Graduated in 75 and took a lot of the music we listened to then as just there. Looking back, these guys were phenomenal. So many great bands. One song after the other on the radio. What a complete lucky time to be alive! 60's and 70's. Tons of artists. No computer enhancement either. The real deal.

[@duke2651]

I am an old hippie. The music from 1965 through 1985 defined my country, my generation, and the entirety of western civilization. It tells my generation's story of war and peace, of submission and resistance. The music tells our story with tears and with smiles...but never with an apology! No other generation's legacy of music can do this. I enjoy watching the generations following mine discover my music. Yes, MY music. Every member of my generation is a part owner of this era of musical, mystical magic. As we used to say between tokes, "This is some good stuff, man!" :) Be well all, Duke

[@Chiari_Queen_T]

@NancyMoran-r3b Super groups are bands comprised of established musicians in their own right, famous solo artists or members of current or past successful bands. Traveling Wilburys - Super group. Velvet Revolver - super group. Temple of the Dog - super group. A band is not by definition a super group because they are "super" or because in the future, members go on to successful careers, it's about the members' past resume. Eagles are awesome, but NOT a super group. Studio musicians a super group does not make. Don't believe me? look up the definition. Talent doesn't qualify as a super group. All members being singers, instrument players & writers is not rare, but it's talent. A talented group, no doubt. Super group? No.

[@emdusha5590]

The difference is that our generation honed their craft and paid their dues on the road to develop the distinctive sound of an era. There was no “instant” success. You earned it!

The other thing you need to know about the Eagles is that Glenn Frey and Don Henley who are both founding members, were Linda Ronstadt’s back up band before they started the Eagles. She is the one who encouraged them to go into their own band.

I saw them and Randy Meisner backing her. Glenn played piano on Desperado. With Linda singing it ...heaven.

"I feel like we just don't write music like we used to." Because we don't. Nothing is like the 1960s and 1970s for music.

The dual neck player is Don Felder, the one who actually wrote Hotel California.

[@Jaba207]

Wikipedia says, "Hotel California" is a song by American rock band Eagles, released as the second single of their album of the same name on February 22, 1977.[6] The song was written by Don Felder (music), Don Henley, and Glenn Frey (lyrics), featuring Henley on lead vocals and concluding with an iconic 2 minute and 12 seconds long electric guitar solo performed by Felder with a Gibson Les Paul Gibson EDS-1275 double neck and Joe Walsh with a Fender Telecaster, in which they take turns playing the lead before harmonizing and playing arpeggios together towards the fade-out.[7]

This is one of the greatest songs of the classic rock era. Has to be in the Top 5, along with Stairway to Heaven, something by Pink Floyd (Wish You Were Here or Comfortably Numb), something by the Beatles (maybe Hey Jude), and something by the Rolling Stones, maybe 'You Can't Always Get What you Want' (from Let it Bleed, 1969). And we still need to make room for something by The Doors (L.A. Woman, Riders on the Storm, Hello I Love You), and something from Bob Dylan (and the Band), and from The Who. And Jimi Hendrix. And there are certainly others who could be competing for a Top 5 of all time. So *Hotel California* is competing with the very best of the best era music has ever had 👍😎

We kids, got to take turns riding in the van with the cool kids and one of the eight track tapes was the just released Eagles Greatest Hits (blue eagle cover) and Steve Miller Band. This groups sound is so full of memories its like a glass if wine and reading a diary. I was so blessed to have this music as a soundtrack for my youth.

I’m American GenX 1968, but I grew up listening to my Boomer parents’ music. The Eagles is my favorite American band for sure. They are my second favorite band, the Beatles are my #1 favorite. I love seeing younger generations discovering the real music and real musicians that I have loved since my childhood. Another American band and solo artist for you to discover is Creedence Clearwater Revival, and then the solo career of their leader John Fogerty. Another favorite of mine. I love listening to Rock and Roll from the mid 1950s to the mid 1980s when I graduated high school. Also, you should check out the country band Alabama. They were great during the 1980s and received the “Artist of the Decade” award for their music in the 1980s. The 70s and 80s was (musically) a wonderful time to grow up in.

These guys are definitely one of the top rock and roll bands of the last SEVERAL decades. Every one of them had very successful music careers after the hotel California, and rightfully so! They're all very accomplished musicians.

It was a great concert, I know because I was there.

Love watching your experiencing some amazing musicians of 60s n 70s. They transmitted the vib as a group. Channeled the music thru their talent n it was art. What changed? Big corporations controlled the sound n wanted commercial music for radios. The industry strpped on alot of talent. Hard to reinvent a generation of magical sounds. Glad u can still experience them all.

Ridiculously good live. Lucky enough to see them in the UK in 2001 and 2008. Very very special nights. They were, without doubt, one of the best live bands that America has produced.

I graduated in 77. Hotel California is still my all time favorite albums. I’m so glad I hung onto all my vinyls. I have over 500 in total. My 4 kids have vowed to fight over every one of them.

Got to see the History of the Eagles tour 10 years ago. Started out from the beginning with Frey and Hendley sitting on a couple of small amps and starting with their first few songs. Other members of the band gradually joined them for the rest of the basically acoustic set. After a one hour set they took an intermission and returned with the full band and backups and a large fully equipped stage and got things rolling with Life In The Fast Lane. Probably ranks at the top of my Best Concerts list. Pretty sure this was the last tour before Glenn passed.

A live performance where everything is just perfect. It gives me chills as well.

This 1977 live performance never gets old, I must have seen at least a hundred reactions to this one 👍😁

They were the best of the best! Anything by them is beautiful. Seven Bridges Road comes to mind.

Just keep rocking on bro!!!!

My favorite band ever! I could listen to them every day! Still listening in 2024. The music of my teens.

There were so many truly gifted vocal artists in the bands at that time, as well as gifted instrumentalists. From the lyrics to the composition of each song, everything touched deeply. You are really giving me such delight in responding to all of these artists and falling in love with them! I've been pulling all of my "Best of" CD's (I know, I know) and replaying all of them! THANK YOU!!!! (I gave all of my old vinyl records away years ago...so sad. Keep playing our music and enjoying its quality.

Today's youth doesn't demand talented musicians anymore. Back then, bands were made of talented folks working together to compose songs. When you went to a concert and the whole band was locked in, you could just feel it.

🙌🏻 yes!! Most people don’t understand how hard it is to harmonize 2 guitars! I think the problem is no one writes their own music so the passion isn’t there. Plus, music, like working out, had been one way to tame your thoughts. Now, people just go to the doctor and get something. Everyone one has ups and downs in life! You need those ups and downs to make an awesome song with passion behind it!!
