Publisher 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.
Customer Reviews
A Good Read
Another in the dysfunctional band exposes and a little too whiny, “poor rich me”, but we’ll written and interesting.
Heaven and Hell
Simply a great read. One of the most enjoyable books I've read. I recommend to others that they view the film History of the Eagles that was released on Showtime in 2013 as they read this book. It's available via You Tube. Seeing the band perform and visualizing the real people as you read Felder's characterizations made his story even more compelling, as well as balancing his side of this story. I have always enjoyed guitar music and players and Don Felder is by far one of the elite guitar musicians. I knew little of him or the Eagles before reading his book, but am now one of his admiring fans. He is truly an amazing talent.
Great Book.
The book was much better then I thought it would be. Don Felder gives a very candid look behind the scenes of life with The Eagles. I have always been a Felder fan but this book gave me a real look at what life in the fast lane would be like. He tells the story of growing up dirt poor in Gainsville ,his struggle of growing up with his family and how luck and friendships turned his life around. I found myself telling my wife stories from the book at the dinner table.All in all its a great read. You,wont regret it.Well done Mr Felder.
