Hotel California

Hotel California sold over 32 million copies, earning a Grammy for Record of the Year in 1978 for its iconic title track. As one of the best-selling albums in US history, it exemplifies the Eagles' polished country-rock sound. Its lyrical storytelling and layered production have made it a cultural touchstone, though it falls short of #3 Led Zeppelin IV in sales by 5 million units, highlighting the competitive peak of 1970s rock.
