FECK IT, Hotel California is one of the best solos ever

Post by jnurp »

maybe even the absolute greatest solo of all time. The bends, the twists, the darkness the light, the harmonies...its just perfect to me.

dude i was JUST saying this the other day.


it's one of the few solos ever recorded that causes involuntary air guitar, even if just in the fingers under the table. this is to include the little slip-slides up the neck and especially the climb-to-really quick bend up-to-release of the picked bend part (you $%^$%^ know what im talking about).

Well, yeah. People actually say it isn't? Like YB said, this is probably the most air-guitar-solo'd song in history. Shit is awesome.
