This is my version of Giuseppe Torrisi’s instrumental classical guitar arrangement of Hotel California by the Eagles. The Eagles is an American band that formed in 1971. Their music was very popular during the 70s. The Eagles had several hit songs. In 1998 they were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Hotel California was one of their biggest hit songs.

I put photos of American mountain areas that are fun & exciting to visit during peak periods and fun & relaxing to visit during off periods. There are pictures of (1) Black Hills Forest, (2) Adirondack Mountains, (3) Great Smoky Mountains, and (4) Ozark Mountains. I captioned the 1st picture of each series of photos with the name of the mountain area for those pics.

Equipment:
Cordoba Orchestra CE Classical Guitar

Hotel California – Eagles (Lyrics)
On a dark desert highway, Cool wind in my hair, Warm smell of colitis, Rising up through the air, Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light, My head grew heavy, and my sight grew dim, I had to stop for the night, There she stood in the doorway, I heard the mission bell, And I was thinking to myself: "This could be heaven or this could be hell,” Then she lit up a candle, And she showed me the way, There were voices down the corridor, I thought I heard them say,

Welcome to the Hotel California, Such a lovely place (such a lovely place), Such a lovely face, Plenty of room at the Hotel California. Any time of year (any time of year), You can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, She got the Mercedes Benz, She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys she calls friends, How they dance in the courtyard, Sweet summer sweat, Some dance to remember, Some dance to forget, So I called up the Captain: "Please bring me my wine," He said: "We haven't had that spirit here since 1969,” And still those voices are calling from far away, Wake you up in the middle of the night, Just to hear them say

Welcome to the Hotel California, Such a lovely place (such a lovely place), Such a lovely face, They're living it up at the Hotel California, What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise), Bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling, The pink champagne on ice, And she said: "We are all just prisoners here of our own device," And in the master's chambers, They gathered for the feast, They stab it with their steely knives, But they just can't kill the beast, Last thing I remember, I was running for the door, I had to find the passage back, To the place I was before, "Relax," said the night man, "We are programmed to receive, You can check out any time you like, But you can never leave"

Songwriters: Frey Glenn Lewis, Felder Don
