Hotel California
November 8th, 2006
After collaborating with Nikhil on the Rock & Roll Tune, here is our second song, Hotel California by The Eagles. Nik did the entire musical part by himself, recording the strumming, solo, bass and other parts on his electric Guitar in about 8 parts. I then sang (I’m no Don Henley!) the song with the music. Remember, we are about 400 odd miles apart, so a little miscoordination is inevitable.
I think Nikhil did a commendable job with his virtuoso Guitar skills in arranging the entire track. Kudos to him!
And here’s the song. Click (Double click in Internet Explorer) on the play button to start.

To enjoy this song, I would highly recommend that you use headphones. Thanks!
Here’s the MP3 for those who can’t make the player work.
*Update* – I re-recorded this song today. I’m not really sure if vocals have improved or not.

“Hotel California” is my all time favorite….actually, Eagles is one of two bands that I can stand in live concerts….I believe they are that good…So, when i saw that you tried this song…I was excited! The guitar was good….the end instrumental part of the song is my fav. and I enjoyed it in your work too! Good job!
