## Description

The inside story can finally be revealed The Eagles are the bestselling, and arguably the tightest-lipped, American group ever, and Eagles: Their Greatest Hits 1971–1975 is the bestselling album of all time int he United States. Through breakup and comeback, arguments and lawsuits, their popularity has continued to soar for more than three decades. Now band member and guitarist Don Felder finally breaks the Eagles’ years of public silence to take fans behind the scenes—where drugs, greed, and endless acrimony threatened to break up the band almost daily. In Heaven and Hell, Felder shares every part of the band’s wild ride, from the pressure-packed recording studios and trashed hotel rooms to the tension-filled courtrooms where he, Glenn Frey, and Don Henley had their ultimate confrontation. Yet Felder also remembers the joy of writing powerful new songs with his bandmates and the magic of performing in huge arenas packed with roaring fans. Offering even-handed and perceptive portraits of every member of the Eagles, Heaven and Hell is a thriller and thoughtful, raucous and bittersweet tale about the love of music and the price of fame.

Review: Take it Easy and read this book with a slow enjoyment.... - Mr. Felder wrote a very telling and personal account of his time with the Eagles. I've been an Eagles fan since 1974 and as a kid I simply loved the music, the words, the riffs, renditions and all that represented the Eagles. In 2005 as I moved from Southern California to Northern Virginia I made it a point to drive through Winslow Arizona just because of the song "Take It Easy". What I appreciated the most about this book was the personal touch Mr. Felder added. The story of his humble beginnings in a similar yet different way reminded me of my own. The roads he took that would lead him to both his wife and the band were simply something that he allowed to happen and he took his course naturally. One gets the sense of reading this outstanding work that he is a man of great patience and privacy - yet he shares with us (his fans) the intricacies of both personal and professional band member life. He exposes the flaws, reminisces of the successes, shares the joys of children being born and reflects passionately on his love for his parents; though this too is not without its trials and tribulations on his personal reflections. As a kid growing up in Southern California it was easy to understand this music, these events, these recordings of (to a larger extent) the American Southwest, the desert that lays between Los Angeles and Las Vegas is vast as one crosses the State Border Line from California to Nevada - that whole area in which it has its own natural beauty has always reminded me of the Eagles. I hope for the future Mr. Felder will write more books and provide his fans with more insight on the music industry; though I myself am not a musician the simple truth of the matter is I simply know what I like to listen to whether I cook inside or outside. I would love to read a book from him specifically on his experiences with the technological aspect of change in the music industry. It would be a good read should he consider to write one later. I have been a big Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers fan since 1979 with "Damn the Torpedo's" LP; a treasure treat for me was reading how Mr. Felder and Mr. Petty as kids got together so Mr. Felder could "teach" and assist Mr. Petty with his own personal development. I could just sit back and ponder as read those simple passages within this fabulous book. Meanwhile, if you're an Eagles fan this book is simply for you and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. For dumb Jarhead like me, a military guy, a guy no longer in the military and yet a professional within the U.S. Government these songs and this story made me think (of my own life) as I crossed Mr. Felder's account of the many songs and tours he took to support each of the great albums this band made.
Review: No Lyin' Eyes for Felder... - This is a terrific book. I just finished reading it, and let me tell you, Don Felder does not hold back, he - along with Wendy Holden - tell the true story of the Eagles. I found this book to be very informative and interesting, especially the stories of what went on behind the glamour on stage. The ongoing arguments: in studio, hotels, and back stage. Also, the details of the alcohol, drugs, and sexy women that comprised the famous "third encore." It's funny how Glenn Frey mentioned in the History of the Eagles that everyone is getting along better today. However, Felder's wonderfully descriptive book tells the real story, that the Hell Freezes Over Tour in 1994 and beyond, brought back many is the same petty arguments that led to their unfortunate disbandment in 1980. Only this time, egos and greed compounded an already fractured and cold situation. I love Don Felder's work with the Eagles. I believe he is clearly talented and one of the best guitarists in rock and roll history. In my opinion, I believe he could go toe to toe any day with the likes of Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, and even the late Jimi Hendrix, if he we alive today. As part of Eagles Ltd., established in 1974, Don Felder should have been treated better and he should have received as much money, as Don Henley and Frey, from the all the reunion tours that occurred from 1994 to 2001. Don Felder was the catalyst in propelling the Eagles to stardom and he truly made them the great rock and roll band we still love today. Felder brought rock to the Eagles, and Joe Walsh only came in a year later, with his chain saws, to add to the party. As the band continues now 12 years without Felder, I just hope they can at least recognize and show a little gratitude for what Felder bought to the Eagles. Don Felder poured his heart, his soul, and even sacrificed a wonderful marriage to make the Eagles the ultimate American Rock and Roll Band. I still remember pointing Felder out to my then girlfriend, when the came out on stage in 1994 during the Hell Freezes Over Tour. I knew they were opening with Hotel California and I told her to watch Don "Fingers" Felder play the intro to this song, because he wrote it. Don Felder is such a class act, a remarkable guy, and I would love to meet him. This is a wonderful read and I recommend it to every Eagles fan! It is not wasted time and you will not be disappointed! By the way, I will be seeing The Eagles, twice, this fall in Dallas, Texas. It's a shame that the group dynamic, then and now, is what it is! But they are the Eagles and I cannot wait to see them. Don Felder's presence will strongly be heard in the music! :o)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Clash of the Megalomania Titans!
*by D***Y on December 5, 2008*

"Clash of the Megalomania Titans!" could also have been the name for this book. It's really not surprising, I suppose, that after years of adoring fans telling you how great you are (and in many cases, using their bodies to do it), that you would develop a highly disjointed view of the world BENEATH you. In many instances, I found myself saying "Really, Felder? You actually THOUGHT that!?" Example; When he describes the final straw that led to his decision to divorce his wife. The incident is so trite and trivial, that his consequent action comes off as the world's worse excuse to divorce someone! Either that, or it comes off as a man (who's own ego and sense of entitlement to non-stop attention) who has suddenly caught one of his wide-eyed minions blinking for a split second. "Off with their heads then!!" seems to be the preposterous answer; He is mad at his wife for half blowing-off their dinner and movie plans (which he pressured her in to doing, last minute), so instead of talking to her and expressing how he feels, he tells her that he's just going to head home and he never says a word...and this is the unforgivable incident that leads to divorce?? Yikes! I guess Celebrities really DO lead sheltered lives! If this is the final straw to ending a 25+year marriage, I'd be afraid to ever say one word to the guy if I was his friend, band-mate, etc. God knows he could decide to quit you on a whim...like he did Walsh, when he called him to talk to him about the group's decision to let him go. He said he and Walsh were "old buddies". Yet, he gave up on him too, simply because he didn't like his attitude during the call..."I haven't spoken to him since" says Felder. And he wonders why his friends are disappearing! He didn't express how he was really feeling (hurt by his response) and he's made no effort since to rectify what could be, in all honesty, a case of mistaken impressions (just like the movie/dinner incident). These scenes in the book are telling, in that Felder appears as someone who doesn't communicate very well with others, ESPECIALLY at critical moments in his life. He sucks it in when Henley & Frey tell him that he's going to be paid less (instead of having it out when it counts, at the meeting, not down the road, after the tour is over). And when he describes how this ultimately becomes the issue that leads to his getting kicked out of the band, he points out how he himself never really talks directly to anyone about the problem, until it is all blown out of proportion and it's too late...a familiar theme throughout his life, apparently (read the book and you'll see what I mean). But, all the above being said, this book is as addicting as the groupies and blow Felder speaks of indulging in! :-) I read it twice within a couple of days of getting it. It's not overly eloquent in it's prose, but the simple, straight-forward way of telling his side of the story, seems heartfelt and true (to his point of view, anyway). In Felder's defense, it's also not hard to imagine that there is truth to some of the accusations he makes. I have no doubt, with all of the other egos at play in the band, surely there were times when the term "*-hole" applied to both Frey and Henley. And contrary to some of the other reviews here, I DO think that even junior members of a band count! Each artist brings that special little sound that is all his own to a group. And without all of the right ingredients in the pie, it may look like apple pie, and it may smell like apple pie, but it won't TASTE like THAT apple pie, the one you love from your favorite, special bakery on the corner. Felder's contributions to the Eagles sound (and to their biggest single of all time, their signature song, "Hotel California"), MUST be appreciated and recognized. I think that this is Felder's point at the end of the day, and I agree. I hate to see any one or two band members think that THEY are the band (even if they did write most of the songs, over-all). Roger Waters thought (and still does think) that he's Pink Floyd. I love Waters, but without Gilmore on the Guitar, and Mason on the drums, to me, he's just "Roger Waters"...and Pink Floyd under Gilmore is a shell of what it should be. Point being, without each other, they both suck on their own (for the most part), and are nothing compared to what they were when they were in "Their Band", together, performing as a group. Henley and Frey should do themselves, and the fans, a favor; Bring Felder back in to the fold. I don't like seeing them all on stage without him. It bugs me when any band does this. Like the way Led Zeppelin is supposed to be going on tour soon, without Robert Plant. Excuse ME!?!? You've GOT to be kidding! It's an insult to fans when these great acts from back then get together with partial (or in some arrogant cases, NONE) of the original band members. The Eagles are no exception. Bottom line; Buy the book. It will get you thinking...and it's entertaining and interesting from a historical perspective. It made me wish I could have been Don Felder, with all of his drug-induced, rock & roll fame, fortune and hot little groupies! Why do some people just get all of the "COOL" problems in life? :-(
