<P> The band recorded "The Last Resort" at the Criteria Studios in Miami, Florida . However, Black Sabbath were also recording Technical Ecstasy in an adjacent studio and played very loudly . The Eagles had to re-record the song a number of times due to the noise coming through the wall from the next studio . </P> <P> Music critic Dave Thompson considers it an update of Joni Mitchell's "Big Yellow Taxi" but says that it is "even more weary and despairing ." Thompson regards the line "Some rich men came and raped the land . Nobody caught' em" to be a critique of a free market economy . Critic William Ruhlmann said of it that it "sketches a broad, pessimistic history of America that borders on nihilism ." Author James Perone says that it ties "all the previous songs (from Hotel California) together in this final reflection of the dark side of California Life ." He notes, for example, how the song lyrics contrast the beauty of the California desert with ugly suburban houses and ultimately progresses to criticize the concept of manifest destiny, on which American expansion to California was partially based . He regards the key lyric to be the line "They call it paradise; I don't know why," noting the emphasis given to it by the resignation of Henley's voice and by the falling melody . Perone does criticize the use of synthesizer on the song instead of actual string instruments, which he feels sounds artificial . To Eagles' biographer Marc Eliot, "The Last Resort" tells "the story of a nation's self - destruction and physical decay told as metaphor for personal creative burnout ." In 2016, the editors of Rolling Stone rated "The Last Resort" as the Eagles #27 greatest song . </P> <Ul> <Li> Don Henley - lead vocals, drums, synthesizer </Li> <Li> Glenn Frey - piano, acoustic guitar, backing vocals </Li> <Li> Joe Walsh - electric guitar, synthesizer, backing vocals </Li> <Li> Don Felder - pedal steel guitar, electric guitar, backing vocals </Li> <Li> Randy Meisner - bass, backing vocals </Li> </Ul> <Li> Don Henley - lead vocals, drums, synthesizer </Li>
