    What Are the 'Big 4' of Comeback Albums? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Hearing Eagles songs any time Don Felder hits the stage is a guarantee. And fans can always count on hearing one -- "Hotel California" -- exactly as it was recorded.

"I've played it so many times -- like, every show I've played as a
