Hotel California
"Hotel California" is the title track from the Eagles' album of the same name and was released as a single in February 1977.

The song is considered the best known recording by the band, and in 1998 its long guitar coda was voted the best guitar solo of all time by readers of ''Guitarist''. The song was awarded the Grammy Award for Record of the Year in 1978. The lyrics of the song have been interpreted by fans and critics alike, the Eagles themselves describi ...

"Moby Dick" is an instrumental drum solo by English rock band Led Zeppelin, featured on the band's 1969 album ''Led Zeppelin II''.
