In 1998, a reader's poll conducted by Guitarist magazine selected the guitar solos on the track "Hotel California" by Walsh and Don Felder as the best guitar solos of all time
Clearly not a slouch.

Eagles Their Greatest Hits was the best USA selling album of all time. 38MM copies. Thriller was 34MM. Worldwide, Thriller is number 1 at 50+

One factoid I saw on a YouTube video. The Hotel California riff came from a guitar practice exercise Joe Walsh would play and I think Henley said that's going to be an Eagles song. |
Hotel California came from Don Felder Sitting on his couch playing. The Joe Walsh exercise riff which became a song was life in the fast lane riff.
Felder is a great guitar player and teacher
