Review: Check into "Hotel California" on SACD - This is a review of the Japanese-import SACD version of the album. In short, it's great. I previously owned the DVD-Audio version of this surround mix but decided to sell it after it went out of print and prices skyrocketed. Unfortunately, I missed having the album in 5.1; fortunately, the SACD version is just terrific. In fact, it may even be better. The DVD-Audio was amazing, but I actually prefer the slightly softer feel of the SACD. The mix, as far as I know, is identical to the one that was done for DVD-A, but SACDs just seem to have a bit more warmth. Of course, you don't get the visual extras, which included some nice photos and one of the most attractive DVD-A menus I've ever seen. If your focus is the music, that obviously won't matter to you. And for those who don't remember or weren't around ... well, the Eagles were probably at the creative peak on this album. The title track, "New Kid in Town," "Life in the Fast Lane," Victim of Love," "Try and Love Again" and "The Last Resort" all became FM radio rock standards, and in fact were so overplayed in the 1970s and 1980s that some fans (myself included) needed a long break. But there's no denying the talent on display here. Drummer/singer Don Henley was at his swaggering best. Bassist Randy Meisner's songwriting contribution ("Try and Love Again") was the best of his career. Glenn Frey, Henley's most frequent writing partner, was often overshadowed in the band, both instrumentally and vocally, but his wistful vocal on "New Kid in Town" and wicked Clavinet on "Fast Lane" were superb. Finally, the dual leads of guitarists Joe Walsh and Don Felder just shredded everything in their path. Felder would later be dismissed by Henley and Frey, with the result being a legal mess. Walsh returned to the fold after many years, but my understanding is that, financially, he's never been a full partner. Tim Schmidt took over bass duties for Meisner after this record, playing on "The Long Run." The latter was a decent album, but it didn't stand up to its predecessor. There were a few great songs ("King of Hollywood," for example) but also a few too many few duds -- "Teenage Jail," the duh-hey "The Greeks Don't Want No Freaks." "Hotel California," by contrast, is the Eagles signature record. The 5.1 mix isolates the instruments beautifully; on every nearly every song, there is at least one moment that emerges as breathtaking: 1. The separation of the acoustic and electric guitars on the title track, plus Henley's ghostly percussion. 2. Walsh's first organ riff on "New Kid." 3. The opening-note onslaught of the electric guitars on "Fast Lane." 4. Henley's vocal on the final stanza of "Wasted Time"; he sounds both suitably exhausted and engaged. 5. The clarity of the orchestra at the end of "Wasted Time (Reprise)." 6. The ENTIRETY of "Victim of Love." On the runoff track of the original pressing of the album, the careful eye could find this message: "V.O.L. is five-piece live," meaning there were no studio overdubs. The performance of the song was spot-on and crackled with energy. 7. Walsh's battered, nasal but somehow perfectly suitable voice on "Pretty Maids All in a Row." 8. Meisner's entirely unbattered, stratospheric singing on "Try and Love Again." 9. And finally, Frey's glorious but restrained piano on "The Last Resort"; on the 5.1 mix, you can actually hear the hammers striking the strings in one passage. Great album, great mix, and a great look back at one of the landmarks of 1970s rock. Review: "ONE" of the most perfect pieces of Music EVER released ... - "ONE" of the most perfect pieces of Music EVER released. This particular record just REALLY jelled with me when I moved from Elementary School to High School. That particular summer was a really significant summer in my life & this Album just fit on all points. Loved every track, still a significant chunk of music in my life. Listen/hear Hotel California almost every single day. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B076C1NJYH | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,122 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) #74 in Classic Rock (CDs & Vinyl) #473 in Pop (CDs & Vinyl) #551 in Rock (CDs & Vinyl) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (4,422) | | Date First Available | October 10, 2017 | | Label | Elektra Catalog Group | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Elektra Catalog Group | | Number of discs | 1 | | Original Release Date | 2017 | | Product Dimensions | 5.59 x 5.98 x 0.35 inches; 3.46 ounces | ## Images ![Hotel California - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71pctS7lG1L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Check into "Hotel California" on SACD *by M***E on November 20, 2011* This is a review of the Japanese-import SACD version of the album.

This particular record just REALLY jelled with me when I moved from Elementary School to High School. That particular summer was a really significant summer in my life & this Album just fit on all points. Loved every track, still a significant chunk of music in my life. Listen/hear Hotel California almost every single day. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great recording in SACD stereo/multi channel and standard CD (44k) *by D***. on December 11, 2025* Received with a cracked case, but nothing inside was damaged. It was sealed. It played both SACD stereo/multi channel and standard CD format (44k) just fine. Love the sound, but still like my vinyl version more. But these come really close. I have way too many old CD cases laying around so easy to replace. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hotel California (2013 - Desperado - One of These Nights --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/52107239-hotel-california](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/52107239-hotel-california) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
