Japanese vinyl pressings are highly sought after by audiophiles and collectors, due to their premium sound quality and beautifully presented packaging. The sonic quality of Japanese records is regarded as the best in the world. No wonder all the original Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab records were pressed in Japan! The covers are printed on better quality heavy stock paper too. Top condition original Japanese pressings are becoming scarcer ~ and therefore more collectable and valuable every year.

Geoff (verified owner) –
A chart-topper in it's own right, 'Hotel California' boasts three cuts which became number one singles: the melodic "New Kid In Town", "Life In The Fast Lane" (radio rock at it's best), and, of course, the immortal "Hotel California". The latter contributed to the groups growing reputation for writing masterful editorials on the singular state of mind called Southern California. The guitar soloing on the title track is undoubtedly one of the most memorable moments in the history of rock, as lead players, Joe Walsh and Don Felder interplay brilliantly over the reggae-tinged beat. The highly emotive "Wasted Time" also ranks as one of Eagles' best songs, with some gorgeous string accompaniment and atmospheric delivery. "The Last Resort" is a most inspiring piece too, and rounds the album off perfectly. In short, if you enjoy well crafted, catchy songs played by consummate musicians at the peak of their creativity, then you simply must own a copy of the fantastic 'Hotel California' album.
