I actually didn't mean the intro which I enjoyed the late Bill Armstrong playing, but the way the horns intrude into the guitar solos.

I actually liked the horn intro to Hotel California. Now, if it had been done in place of the guitar intro, that would have not been cool.
I didn't hate the horns for that era. But I'm like Soda - I think it's time for them go now.

To me it just set a tone that almost made the song not more mainstream rock n' roll sounding to me. It put it in a different place in my mind. I know it was thought to be a mexican reggae type song, but I just think of it as a great rock song. Not a "rocker", like something like Already Gone or LITFL is, but a more smooth rock song. I don't care for Bob Marley type music or reggae and also not a big fan of the whole jazz thing or horns in general.
It was just not the rock anthem to me that I feel it is with the horn section and also much the same feeling about the spanish version on HFO. It's just my thing. To each his/her own.
My wonderful husband just brought home my copy of this blu-ray... hopefully will sit down to watch tomorrow afternoon (after dog shows ).

Enjoy...
My missus and I watched what used to be the first disc of the DVD set last night and just marveled once again at the harmonising... I have the Blu Ray by Crosby Stills & Nash released recently and much as I love them, wow, they have lost the ability to sing together. Very sad.
The Eagles, however, based on the 2004 concert and what I heard with my own ears last year, are every bit as good if not better than ever...
You will LOVE the Blu Ray...
I woke up this morning with an attitude
looked at the headline, put me in a real bad mood
Me too. I love how clear it is as well. One of my favvie concerts for sure. I am in need of watching it again here very soon!!!
You came along and changed my life Glenn!!
I wish I could join you too Soda! Sounds like a perfect evening to me! Maybe when more of us (like me) get our blu rays we could do a chat party?
