It was the band's first album
with guitarist Joe Walsh, who had replaced founding member Bernie
Leadon, and the last to feature founding bassist Randy Meisner. The

Grammy Awards, the title track won Record of the Year, and "New Kid in
Town" won Best Arrangement for Voices. The album was also nominated for

singles were released from the album, with the title track and "New Kid
in Town" topping the Billboard Hot 100 and "Life in the Fast Lane"
reaching No. 11.

of all time. It has been certified 26? Platinum by the Recording
Industry Association of America (RIAA) in the US, and has sold over 32
million units worldwide, making it the band's second best-selling album
after Their Greatest Hits (1971–1975) (1976). Ranked by various
publications as one of the greatest albums of all time, it was placed at
number 37 on Rolling Stone's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All
Time" in 2003 and 2012, re-positioned to number 118 in the 2020 edition.
A 40th anniversary special edition of Hotel California was released in
