The Eagles - they're all vocalists. They didn't really have a lead vocalist. Their harmonies are everything... and they way the guitars weave in and out of each other... Some of the greatest musicians of that generation on one stage - 3 of them went on to have great solo careers after they broke up.

Glen Frey and Don Henley are really the only ones to continue as soloists from the original. Randy Meissner's mental illness really set in, Bernie Ledon wasn't really into fame and the trappings. Joe Walsh had a solo career established before their mutual manager brought them together. Although Don Felder was largely responsible for the music of Hotel California, his success alone wasn't that great. Timothy Schmidt put out a couple albums but Henley and Frey had the most success

Don Henley, one of the most easily recognizable voices in Rock. Great drummer, great singer. What else could a band want?

To answer to your question is, guitarists like that.

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", "Witchy Woman", "Desperado", "Already Gone", "Best of My Love", "Lyin' Eyes", "Take It to the Limit", "New Kid in Town" etc. Before they went solo they were the back up band for Linda Ronstadt.

Funny you should say that everyone would know this guitar solo. I teach Sunday School and had a 5th grader who had started guitar lessons and really wanted to play for the class. We gathered all the kids from 1st grade to 5th grade to hear his solo. He started playing and all the old lady teachers were just smiling and swaying to the music but I knew the song right away. I sidled up to my assistant and whispered "Is that Hotel California?" and he whispered back, "yep". We rolled with it and had a great concert in church. We still laugh about that.

Oh that’s a great story! Thanks for sharing.

These guys were easily full artists and could stand alone. But when they came together it was magic.

Joe Walsh is a guitar god, his sound throughout this song (and every one he plays) is singularly epic. Few guitarists have their own original sound that makes them immediately recognizable but he is one of them.

After 45 years I still get goosebumps when I hear the guitar solo 🎸🎸 thank-you 🥰🥰

Eagles❗❗ This is one of the greatest song of all time😆 I love Don Henley's voice so much😍 This makes me feel so nostalgic.

If there was ever a perfect live performance…..this was it.

The Eagles were my favorite band growing up. They were just as good live as they were in the studio. Loved your enthusiasm for this video. Glenn Frey passed away in 2016, r.i.p. But the eagles have and still are touring commemorating the 1976 Hotel California album. From Sept. 9th through Nov. 25th 2022 in Canada and The United States.

All the members of the Eagles could sing, so you may hear a different vocalist on another song. For instance, Randy Meisner sings lead on the song "Take it to the Limit" during this same concert. I think it was the best performance Randy ever did. Glen Frey and Joe Walsh also have a turn at lead. This was a phenomenal concert. I think the Eagles have purposely left the meaning vague, but it is generally understood to be a cautionary tale of the excesses that comes with success, especially in Southern California. That guitar solo at the end really soars when Joe Walsh joins in with Don Feldar. One of the best.

A.C.D.C. Thunderstruck live at River Plate! The crowd participation in this one is second to none, the energy is really flowing here!

THIS is the music I was listening to in H.S. I can’t imagine my life without it, can the same be said for today’s music, maybe, but doubtful.

I remember reading they never played this song the same way twice because of the guitar solos.

Best guitar duet ever…

I saw them live March 7, 1980 at the Oakland Coliseum, they played, “Hotel California”. IT WAS AWESOME!

The Eagles sound is great, the professional sound they have live is as good as studio. One of a handful of groups that sound that way.

I always like when someone says they are hearing this for the first time, then mouth the words along with the singers.

I was a teenager in the 60’s and music during those years was so awe inspiring. New bands and sounds every week on the radio. Bands toured a lot and so the fans had more connection with them. I saw a lot of concerts, my very first being Sonny and Cher in 1971 👵🏼☮️❤️🎸

As others have noted, Phil Collins is the touchstone for drum-playing vocalists. Also, the backing (and sometimes lead) vocals from the drummer in Queen are classic.

This one is just perfect. The song and your reaction. Very well done. Greatings from germany. Loving it

Glenn Frey said before they do their live shows they have a warm up which they call the circle of death where they sit in a circle and practice their harmony's so they are just perfect as they are on the studio albums

After hearing this live version a couple years back, I almost never listen to the studio version anymore, nothing against it, it's still a masterpiece, but this performance is so much more!

Watch this entire concert live. It’s fucking insanely good. One of These Nights next. You’re welcome.

That guitar bit rips me, man, One of my favorite cuts of all time. SRV's work is tops, but this Eagles stuff is amazing.

You need to check out the Kennedy Center Honors, STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN, cover by HEART! UNREAL!

This is actually one of my favorite songs

Backstage before they go on stage, the harmonize to "Seven Bridges Road", no music and they later released it.

The lyrics are extraordinary

Phil Collins and of course Pau from “the warning” sing during drumming. Did see the Eagles life a couple of months ago. They are still amazing life. Thank you for this reaction.

This is hams down in my opening one I of the best most iconic songs ever written/performed. It holds great meaning in my life. In iconic my life was a mess, I feared having to go home so I got an after school job and spent the rest of my time in my best friend's boyfriend garage listening to his band jam out! This song was their#1 cover and it had so much meaning to me then and now!! Thanks for the reminder of one of the few good memories of my teen years!

Funny story .. Saw them live in Hershey, PA. Started off and it was soooo perfect. I got furious. It was the age of Milli Vannili ( or however you spell it). I looked at my friend and said “they are lip syncing .. they are fucking lip syncing!” And then Joe hit a clunker chord. Wrong horrible chord. Glenn could not stop laughing. He tried to harmonize but was sputtering with laughter. Best concert moment of my life. Jumped up and down screaming “It’s live It’s live!” I enjoy your unbridled joy whilst making your videos! Sending love from Vermont, Mama Bee

They are still around! I got to see my favorite band in person about 6 months ago. Opened with this song and screamed myself horse.

Always a treat seeing you react and especially to the music of my youth... After the "Beat" generation..the hippies came in so high..that the instruments had to talk for them..lol...that's when the electronic rock really started...most listening from home were just laid back and zoned out...yes I'm telling tales out of school... Have a wonderful day...there's too many great songs to recommend..👍😉...🌿🌿🌿

In my years I’ve seen many live shows. The best live shows are by those artists who are genuinely talented and don’t use the studio for enhancing their already pitiful talent. Simon and Garfunkel was probably one of the best live shows-2 pure voices and a guitar. No nudity. No stupid dancers. Just pure talent.

Saw them 1st concert of my life at Mile High Stadium/Denver , Colorado-with Linda Ronstadt… multiple lives since 1976. Stunning Live & especially with Joe Walsh ✌🏻🎸🎼 Driving thru the Calif desert listening to this …. Nothing better…… Well except Grandpa Joe & his grandson jamming….look it up.

They just announced 2023 dates can’t wait. Best act in concert.

I purchased Eagles tickets for my husband for his birthday… his absolute favorite band in the world… we see them in November in Kansas City Missouri.

Don Felder on the double neck guitar wrote the music.

You need to see what is arguably “The Greatest Live Cover Ever”. Ann & Nancy Wilson (Heart)…cover Zepplin’s “Stairway to Heaven” at Kennedy Center!

This is without a doubt so great, even though it has been played like a zillion times, still one of the most iconic songs from a handful of iconic tunes, from the modern music era. Start with an incredible melody, lyrics that are otherwordly, those voices, especially Don's, and the guitar playing (you're right, Walsh is a god), and you have a tune that few ever written can surpass. I think truly the Eagles are America's best homegrown rock band. Let's raise a glass to the 70s and to the southern California sound that decade made famous. Gotta go now, time to check out of my hotel...seems I can check out but I can never leave!!!!! PS-- It is one of the greatest of all time, BTW.

Queen - Live Aid performance from 1985. Often regarded as one of the greatest live performances of all time.

Dude... Fast tracked to the social dances at high school in the 70's... Thanks for the ride!!! :)

Just thought of another artist to recommend - Joni Mitchell. There are videos of her performing one of her signature songs, Both Sides Now, when she was 23, just her and her acoustic guitar. Then around 2000, about 35 years older, Joni reimagined the song, transposed it down a third, as her voice had changed in those years, and set it with an orchestral arrangement. Both performances are great, and it's worth seeing them back to back to contrast them. To really appreciate Joni's musicianship, you should also watch her live performances of Amelia and Coyote from 1979, accompanied by an all-star jazz combo, including Pat Metheny on guitar and Jaco Pastorius on bass.

"In the 2013 documentary History of the Eagles, (Don) Henley said that the song was about "a journey from innocence to experience ... that's all".

George Michael and Elton John singing "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" is vocally phenomenal.

Phil Collins Live "In the Air Tonight" one of the most iconic songs of my generation, with a mesmerizing performance. kd lang "Crying", MTV Unplugged, her voice is perfection. Chris Stapleton "Whipping Post" (Kenny Greenberg channel) covering The Allman Brothers song has amazing vocals, unbelievable band and Duane Allman in the audience giving a standing ovation!! Billy Joel Live "New York State of Mind" from (Old Grey Whistle Test) the vibe is sooo cool, his voice at it's finest, piano playing flawless, and a sax player that will blow your socks off. Meatloaf Live "Paradise by the Dashboard Light" like watching a play with the most outlandish lyrics for it's time telling a fantastic story with amazing vocals.

The Eagles are still touring, just saw them in Winnipeg a couple months back. Some things have changed, but they are still the greatest live band I've ever seen (x3 '06, '08, '22)

The Eagles was the first concert I attended and saw them again in my youth and then during their Hell Freezes Over Tour. Music from my childhood...

How many people know this song and have listened to it for years but never knew he played the drums too? Forgive me but they don't make musicians like this anymore, real talent and make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. Such emotional feelings when you see the live performances of any great (legendary) groups/bands.

Don Henley said in an interview that this song is simply about the journey from innocence to experience.

I'm 71 and the EAGLES is the only rock concert I have ever been to. They were AWSOME. I saw them at an inside venue and let me tell you, most of the concert goers were tokin them doobies. The gray pall in the bldg was so thick you could barely see the band. BEST NIGHT EVER!!!!!!!

My first time seeing you and I love you and your reaction. That was a proper reaction!

Phill Collins is a singing drummer (as is Niel Pert for Rush). yes there is a piece on the meanings from the Eagles themselves.

Never stop a song during a lead guitar solo especially a duel solo such as this iconic song. Peace

Man, regarding THE BASS: I have the Japanese mini-LP SHM-CD Edition of the Hotel California album, and, in HD sound, THE BASS (and EVERYTHING ELSE) is clear as a BOOMING BELL. It's a powerful sonic experience, EVERY TIME. Thank you for the passionate reaction. Yes, Don Henley is KNOWN for THE VOICE and THE DRUMS, both on in the studio and the concert halls. Glenn Frey, the co-founding member of The Eagles (along w/ Don Henley), for decades, referred to Henley's voice as, "The Golden Throat". According to Henley and Frey, the lyricists of the song, "Hotel California" (in its own Satanic way) is about the dark side of California (and Hollywood and the music business), and how everything that glitters isn't gold. Regarding Fleetwood Mac's live performances: "Silver Springs" , "Dreams", "Gold Dust Woman", "Rhiannon", "Big Love", "Over My Head", and "Landslide", all from THE DANCE (1997). England, We love you, From America. Thank you for giving Us The British Invasion...two times...The 1960s and The 1980s. P.S. I saw The Eagles live, in Summer 1996, during the HELL FREEZES OVER tour, on Long Island, NY. And, it was THIS GOOD, 20 years later. Quite possibly, the best concert I ever saw. Still have the tour souvenir t-shirt, and it still looks and wears great. P.P.S. The Eagles are VERY MUCH still performing, and still sound incredible, in their collective 70s. For proof, listen to: "One Of These Nights" live 2018, on KZread. Henley and the boys still sound phenomenal.

The eagles stay on top for almost four decades

Another great live drummer singing is Levon Helms of The Band on Up On Cripple Creek in their Last Waltz tour. That concert, every song, is fabulous and featured the various artists they toured or played with over the course of their career. The Weight is especially good.
