Top Track: Rock Music A to Z! – Details, episodes & analysis

Matt and Andrew sit down with a returning guest to discuss one of the biggest albums of all time…the Eagles’ 1976 opus, Hotel California. Along the way Matt and Andrew learn about their guest’s famous hatred of disco, his infamous love of marching bands, and his not-as-famous deep admiration of Phantom of the Opera.

Andrew, Matt and a special guest start off discussing one of the most self-serving, score settling, and petty (translation: greatest) rockumentaries of the 21st century. However, tangents abound….

Whether you like the Eagles or not, you’ll enjoy this trip down the dark desert highway of one of the most unintentionally hilarious bands of all-time.
