Product Description:
The Eagles are the bestselling, and arguably the tightest-lipped, American group ever. Now band member and guitarist Don Felder finally breaks the Eagles’ years of public silence to take fans behind the scenes. He shares every part of the band’s wild ride, from the pressure-packed recording studios and trashed hotel rooms to the tension-filled courtrooms, and from the joy of writing powerful new songs to the magic of performing in huge arenas packed with roaring fans.

- Excellent book
Gives an insightful look at the Eagles and there inner turmoils. Felder had been a forgotten man, and the Eagles never really issued a reason why he was let go. This book gives credit to others who contributed to this band, Felder himself who wrote there biggest hit Hotel california. Bernie leadon, Randy Meisner, Timothy B.Schmidt and Joe walsh.
Most people believe the Eagles are only Frey and Henley. But, it is not true. The latters mentioned earlier were equally responsible for the ... Read More

- Let it go Don
This book is an entertaining enough read.I actually would have rated it higher than three stars because it is enjoyable.But ultimately, it's written by a very small, bitter man.
Don Felder is a very talented guitarist.No question.The first time that I saw the Eagles in person was in Vegas on 12/27/1999.I never realized just how many of their key guitar parts were played by him.But for those people who think that without him, their sound isn't as good, get a grip.

- Heaven and Hell: My Life in the Eagles
Fairly decent read.Not too many new secrets were revealed.Everyone who knows the story of the Eagles and their personality clashes should already know the majority of the things that Don refers to in his book.
It is worthwhile to have on your shelf, especially if one day you have to explain something to a nouveau Eagle's fan.You can hand them the book and say, "Here, read this...."

- Sour grapes
I was disappointed in this book, except for some of the "inside" information about the band members.Don Felder sounds like a victim, not taking responsibility for the financial choices he made during his career with the Eagles, nor for the personal ones he made with his family. He seemed surprised to learn that his wife and children made lives of their own while he was away touring - I wonder what he actually expected them to do with their time. Also, he rejoins the band and expects different behavior ... Read More
