    Felder deserves a lot more credit than he's gotten.

      @VGILee Год назад

      I’d say he deserves a lot LESS credit! So many people blurt out that he ‘wrote the song Hotel California’ and these days it seems he doesn’t even bother to correct them because he’s happy to let that untruth - or at least massive exaggeration - grow, so that he can nurture his relevance, which sure doesn’t get fed much by his solo work!

      Because he’s giving tribute to Randy, his predecessor, who contributed massively to the success of the band whereas Timothy, nice guy though he obviously is, with a sweet voice too, is basically hired help with the exclusion of singing a couple of songs, only one of which he had any hand in creating. Sorry to sound negative about a nice guy but Timothy barely registers when you figure out how the band achieved their success and their actual body of work. I think Steuart Smith contributed more, as did JD Souther.

      I dunno if I agree. Felder was great, but before he joined Eagles they had a characteristic sound that lifted them above the other wanna-be bands in the overcrowded country-rock genre. And that characteristic sound was due to Randy Meisner and Bernie Leadon, the two veteran co-founders of Eagles - it was their sweet and rich harmonies and excellent instrumentation that gave Eagles their wings. They both left Eagles in order to save their sanity- Bernie after their first FIVE albums, Randy after their first SIX albums. Not much new material was released after Bernie and Randy left, and Eagles became like a cover band doing re-runs of the hits from when Bernie and Randy were in the band.

Two have the pair of them in the same band, it’s part of the reason they’re not just my favourite band but I think they’re the greatest band ever. There has never been a band with two vocalists of that quality and distinction. It would be akin to Queen having, I dunno, two Mercurys or Mercury and Barbara Streisand or something!

You’d have to be one huge fan of I Can’t Tell You Why to argue against that and even then you’d be arguing that having Timothy was better than having Randy. Having Randy there gagged and bound against his will and forcing him to sing Take It To The Limit every night would have yielded better results than anything Timothy contributed. Sorry if it sounds like I hate the guy. I really don’t. I just think several non-Eagles friends of the band and hired help have contributed more than he did.

      Randy was told to stand at the extreme end of the stage, far away from Frey, and that he would be holding a guitar but the guitar would be unplugged. They told Bernie to stand at the opposite end of the stage but I don't think they told Bernie that his guitar would be unplugged. In 'Take It Easy' at one point Bernie looked puzzled, then walked up to the sound equipment and then glared at Frey. But Bernie and Randy turned the tables: In 'Hotel California', Bernie coaxed Randy to come and stand centre stage with him, behind Frey (of which Frey was unaware, so wrapped up in his own greatness!) The two of them (Randy and Bernie) stood there with unplugged instruments, making as if they were also playing in the band - quite rightfully so! I think when Frey found out, he was sooo mad, and during the song when Henley saw what Bernie and Randy had done he was not amused. No wonder that immediately after the show, everybody except Randy split up and went their separate ways, with Randy joining the other inducted musician to celebrate at the bar!

    • @VGILee
      @VGILee Год назад

      Haha but it would have been pretty dumb. And actually Felder massively admires Henley. He just thought Frey had some undiagnosed personality disorder.
      There’s a funny bit in his book near the very end where - after praising Henley and his talents - he mentions that Henley’s then-new album Inside Job wasn’t doing so well or something silly and pointless like that. He hasn’t heard it. And it didn’t do that well. But he cane across as saying it , well how and why, I’m not sure. With glee? Or suggesting he’d lost it? Ido t know but let’s be clear Mr. Felder, it might not have had the hit singles that The End Of The Innocence had, but listen to it a few times and it’s a brilliant album with not one bad track and some of the best lyrics I’ve ever heard. It also has a song which makes he tear up every single time (Annabel) - the only song that does that to me - and has still outsold all your efforts! D’oh!
      What would have been funnier is if he’d gone to the mic and jumped up and down like a little kid, ranting ‘I wrote the song Hotel California, I wrote the SONG. Me!! My song!’ Then started humming and eventually Henley just came up behind him and kicked him in the balls.

      @@scrimmy45 From the book "To The Limit" (1998):
      The song "Hotel California" opens and closes with one of the most immediately recognizable signatures in popular music: the
      clanging twin guitar riffs of Don Felder and Joe Walsh. "All that music was
      written by Felder," Henley says. "He had a little studio in his house. He'd
      been an engineer at one point, before he began to play full-time, so he was
      really good at it. He created the music track, and although we rerecorded it,
      basically all the parts were there. I put the melody on top of it while driving
      around in my car. I write a lot of my songs in the car, still the only time and
      place in my life I can get some privacy. When it came time to record it, I
      spent so much time in the studio I did a lot of Hotel California in a
      bathrobe, singing, playing drums, and drinking gin."
      You really believe the crap Henley and Frey put in his "documentary".
      By the way, in Latinamerica, and I dare to say all over the world too, most people knows this song, most people don't know shit about other Eagles songs, and most people understand nothing about the lyrics because they don't speak english. How about that?
