The 1970s seem to have seen a lot of songs and albums making meta-commentary about music and the rock lifestyle, such as Don McLean's 'American Pie', The Eagles' 'Hotel California', or Pink Floyd's 'Wish You Were Here'. Was there something about the '70s that made this so?

Or am I spotting a pattern that doesn't actually exist?

The spirit of 1976: When the Eagles first played Honolulu back in the day, with guitarist Joe Walsh, the band was at the height of its popularity, touring behind a best-selling greatest hits album and its soon-to-be-released classic "Hotel California."

"Rescuing Frodo and Sam was only a PR stunt orchestrated by Gandalf before the release of their album to gain publicity. In fact, some experts believe Hotel California would not have been as popular if the Eagles had not saved the ring bearer." reddit.com/r/AskHistorian…

TIL While The Eagles were recording their album Hotel California, Black Sabbath was recording their album Technical Ecstasy in an adjacent studio. The Eagles were forced to stop recording on numerous occasions because Black Sabbath were too loud and the sound was coming through the wall. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tec…

I just realized the album art for 'Christmas In L.A.' is heavily inspired by the album art for 'Hotel California' by The Eagles

Hotel California

Christmas in L.A.

Even down to the palm trees and font (look at the 'C')!
