SynopsisThe 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 in the 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 DonFelder 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, beyond the mayhem and clashing egos that have become standard-issue in rock-and-roll memoirs, Felder also remembers the joy of writing powerful new songs with his bandmates; the magic of performing in huge arenas packed with roaring fans; and the hard work, dedication, and creativity that each band member brought to the music, even in the worst of times. Offering even-handed and perceptive portraits of every member of the Eagles, Heaven and Hell is a thrilling and thoughtful, raucous and bittersweet tale about the love of music and the price of fame., The Eagles are the bestselling, and arguably the tightest-lipped, American group ever.

  • Good read!

    If you are an Eagles fan this book is an eye opening view of the ego driven super group. Most people in the corporate world will be able to relate to corrupt personalities that are in the book. One members perspective, but seems honest. I guess no matter how much money or fame people have they seem to be just as miserable as the rest of us!

  • Good rock & roll book

    If you have an interest in the Eagles or how rock bands of that era functioned (or disfunctioned), this is a very good book. Pretty well written with quite a few photos.

  • Life in the Fast Lane With The Eagles!

    This book is basically an autobiography from Don Felder, former lead guitarist for The Eagles. It starts with his family background growing up in Florida and his career through his unexpectedly being asked to join The Eagles in 1974 until he was forced out by Don Henley and Glenn Frey in 2001. He also briefly speaks of his life post Eagles. A very interesting read for any fan of music during this time period.
