- One of my favorite albums of all time. I remember when it first came out. Listening to songs off album on the radio. Brings back great memories of that time in my life. The musicianship and abilities of all the artists in the band were in full display on Hotel. To this day the best live concert I have witnessed is the Eagles. They are truly all great individual musicians but as a group are one of the best to ever perform. Really a perfect album that defines the era it was released. This pressing is fabulous and can be purchased at a reasonable price.
The fidelity of this pressing is extraordinary! Solid drums and bass balanced with aggressive guitars that jump from the speakers. This will be my “go to” spin which I like better than my 2021 remaster. Get a clean copy and enjoy! Wow!- This is just beautiful. Since it's older, the surface noise generally won't bother you too much. Original inserts, the poster, the gatefold, it's all a fantastic presentation. Dynamics are wonderful as well.
This is overall an incredible release. Not only is the album nearly perfect, but the pressing is clean and sounds wonderful. It is of comparable quality to limited audiophile pressings such as the 1999 Outlandos D'Amour pressing, yet for an amazing price. Finding any copy of this album is easy, as most are pretty cheap. Local record stores likely have a used copy of this lying around, I've seen it everywhere!- How mutch is a complete first pressing worth paying for?
- Mobile fidelity have announced a one step version is being released soon. It’s going to be hugely popular but limited to 7500 copies worldwide. I predict a sell out in a day and a bloodbath on the secondary market.
- this album appears to be a gatefold this is the closest match to my release
Definitely an audiophile release. I know it's cliche but I adore this album. Excellent sound and pressing quality, (not surprising considering this is the first issue). Put this one on after a long day, and drift away on the warm smell of colitas rising up through the air.
Edited 4 years agoI'm trying to figure out which version this is (red label 6E 103)
https://sg.carousell.com/p/eagles-hotel-california-1976-vinyl-record-lp-1025243021/
Label: https://media.karousell.com/media/photos/products/2020/8/1/eagles__hotel_california_1976__1596292049_c66413b0_progressive.jpg
https://media.karousell.com/media/photos/products/2020/8/1/eagles__hotel_california_1976__1596292049_fefec9d9_progressive.jpg
I've looked through a bunch of different versions but couldn't find it.
Does anyone have an idea which pressing it might be?
