Eagles based their song on Angie right?

Nice reggae chops in the verses. No kidding - give a listen.

OK, Hotel california IS cheesy, but Elmo is right, there is some SUPERB guitar playing on it.

Whatever happened to Don Felder? He was one of the guitarists trading riffs
with Joe Walsh on the song; I think he was fired for asking for equal split
of the pie.

Frey and Henley got pissed at him - imagine that!

There is certainly more than a striking similarity between Mick Taylor's live solos on Angie (see Brussels Affair) and Hotel California. There is a slight similarity betwee the two songs apart from that but they are sufficiently different enough to say that HC was maybe "inspired" by Angie, not a copy.

News to me but would not be surprised.
