Desperado is their best album in which they took risks. I don't doubt the quality of their musicianship on Hotel California. But there is something really sterile and choreographed about their approach - a bit like the effect of watching too much porn whilst high on copious amounts of cocaine. The Eagles played it safe on all their albums post Desperado and rarely pushed the boundaries. As a result their music is generally boring and contrived.

Don't know about the album, but Desperado is The Eagles' best song, hands down (whatever the Hotel California fans say)

Almost forgot. Hotel California has a tiny little insignificant piece of lyrical content that I am sure a lot of the users around here will find useful to add when making arguments.
