Hotel California sounds good on the radio.

Who can even stand to listen to that song anymore? It is so dated and boring.

Not necessarily because there dated and boring but we’ve heard them a million times, ya maybe boring.

I am not commenting on the music. I am observing that recordings known to be of high quality sound on our audiophile systems sound as good or better than recordings that sound terrible on revealing systems. It is often said the bad recordings sound that way because they are "mixed to sound good on the radio". 

In the early days of CD technology, some record companies (accidentally?) used master tapes that had the RIAA equalization curve (used to cut LPs) to make CDs. 

If it's boring it doesn't matter how well it's recorded.
