In case Howard Stern is watching, this is how you let your guest speak for more than 5 seconds without interrupting him.
Ahahahaha, I know, rgt? Ha!
@@orlando696 Yeah, rudeness is such arrogance.
In OTHER words, Howard Stern needs to learn some manners?
@@christopherfewell8563 what has happened to billy joels face, he looks all distorted? did he have accident so sad 😢
@@orlando696 I agree Mr Orlando. I had the package with SiriusXM that had all channels. I stepped down to the package below which takes Stern out because it was tiring listen to him constantly cutting his guests off with his interruptions. He appears to interject because he wants the guest to understand it's HIS show and HE is more important than anything.
I like his line, “we’re all standing on the shoulders of somebody “.
We should all keep that in mind more often.
Except drummers - they're sitting
I AM 60YRS,COLLINS,HENLEY BOTH WRITERS,DRUMMERS,LEAD SINGERS,WHAT ERA😅
It’s a well-known phrase.

This really captures a deeper reality. Many like to think they rose to the top by their own gravitas. A person's gravitas is certainly a powerful factor. But there are very few that have the hutzpah to rise up completely solely by themselves without other's help. Some of my best memories a kid were listening to Eddie Rabbit. Dad couldn't really get enough of Eddie Rabbit. Driving My Life Away from 1980 was one of his favorites. We'd both listen to it on those old 8-Tracks -- ruclips.net/video/Pu82VMf8enI/видео.html
Billy Joel is not a professional actor, comedian or interviewer. The Billy Joel is real. For that I have always respected him.
A boxer before becoming a singer
I love how he's always so humble & appreciative of another chance to wow his fans!! His voice has not changed. With all the smoking
( left hand tobacco 😁) amazingly it's still rich & ready to give us more awesome hits!!!
If you saw how he treated some band members you might rethink that...
@@Grundig305 everyone has bad days
@@Grundig305 I’ve heard pretty nasty stories of typical cokehead and drunken behavior also besides what happend to his bass player. But he’s a great artist and looks quite humble here
Don Henley has aged phenomenally well and his singing voice still sounds the same. Billy is such a classy guy. Two music icons and true gentlemen.
@@markusaurelius777 you could only wish to look half that good at nearly 70 yrs old (68 at the time of this interview)
@@markusaurelius777 same singing voice as in his 20's
How is Billy classy?
Just stop touching your nose! LMAO Love Don
Henley is a douche bag
Billy Joel & Don Henley are two of the giants of American music and have made some of the best music I still listen to today !
That's an understatement.
Billy certainly is a "giant" these days...
Yes!!!!!!
Fun Fact! They are also giant asshats! But love their works of art and cotrippuations. They’re great strokes of brush’s of paint. Well endowed seizers shakkkin it up baby dolls and army figurines. HOT and brothered on theere “oil on Kansas. TaNk out maker!!!
They seem like genuinely nice guys.
You can tell that Billy Joel isn't a professional interviewer by the fact that he lets Don Henley talk and finish.
he seems an all around classy guy, except for the drinking, of course
Such a great interview. Billy Joel has something Stern will never have: self respect & respect for his guest! That is all it takes to interview well! Vulgarity is obviously not necessary!
stoertebeker ...who gives PHLYING PHCK if it is not a canned scripted pre-formatted exchange, YOU PHCKNG DONK!
This is a perfect interview SHTTHFCK UP! learn to accept, the more 'natural'... stOOpid DONK!
@@DormantIdeasNIQ
Sorry, but; you 're missing his point...Read it one more time if you could...It might click in your understanding.
Respectfully
@@emanuelgonzalez6406 DONK! no such thing as a non-professional, or who gets to finish a point, or who controls the dialogue, etc... etc... etc... etc... etc... etc... etc... etc... when a conversation is candid and free to float as it may! ... what's your point!?!?! DONK!?? you failed to see that you should've shtthphckup as well!
The sheer intelligence of Don Henley still amazes me. Just a worldly man
What Don Henley has done to save Walden Woods is absolutely amazing.
Billy was a wonderful host. Two remarkable artists.
Don's got the lyrics, Billy's got the melodies. Make a damn album together!!
Yeah I would love that.
Billy hasn't wrote a song in decennia..
Sirius XM channel 76 periodically plays Billy Joel piano sonatas!
Billy already has fabulous lyrics. Even though a collab would be awesome.
Are you kidding me now they're both great songwriters Billy Joel writes phenomenal lyrics you must not know his library of music
The tragedy of our time is most young people do not understand how historic this conversation is and how historic these two guys are. The humility and wisdom is gob smackingly surreal. I was 7 to 9 when I discovered these guys in 1976 - 1978. Thanks for the memories. My parents divorced in 1978 and so your music was blues for me and still is because when you're that young you can't process grief properly so it stays with you. Listening to these guys play, I'm always full of emotion and I'm glad of it.
The only thing I can disagree with here is the lack of a hyohen between gob and smackingly 😄😉. Beautiful, what you wrote. Thanks!
Oh, we do, we definitely do. I'll add meeting the Moody Blues in person as a highlight to my life given the few generations between us.
How is Dons voice so deep, yet he sings in such a higher pitch? Crazy.
Don really has a difficult time singing with his regular voice and he forces a raspy type soulish voice that allows him to hit the notes that the songs are written in and it works really well. The Eagles spent a lot of time making sure that their voices harmonized.
His voice is not that high....Randy Meisner, who Henley and Frey alienated from the band, was the one who hit the high notes ( Take it to the Limit) and later Timothy B Schmidt hit the high notes....as usual, Henley given credit where it ISN'T DUE !!!
Dino Pappous I know Randy and Timothys voices were higher and what songs they sang. Don still sings in a higher octave.
@@palmsquad4 ...Don is an attention seeker...plain and simple...treated band mates like crap
Dino Pappous what’s that have to do with his voice. I’m a huge eagles fan. I know a lot about the band. I’m making an observation about his voice.
I saw this interview with Billy and Don when it first came out and was immediately captivated from the first second to the last. So glad to have just bumped into it again and been able to soak up every single word from these two titans of music. As a drummer myself as well as singer and keyboard player,Don Henley has been my idol from the moment I heard him for the first time with the Eagles and all throughout his solo career. I don’t usually put people on a pedestal and I have many artists who I admire and love such as Billy. But, Don Henley has such an incredible voice and god given talent as a lyricist, drummer, scholar etc that I have always had the highest respect and admiration for him and the contributions he has given to the music world. He is truly amongst the select few artists who will be remembered as the greatest singers of all time. Marvin Gaye ,Robert Plant ,Don Henley and a few others. Thanks for the soundtrack of my life 🙏🫶❤
It’s amazing how smart and sharp Don is to this day , he’s one of my fav esp when the Eagles had Glen Frye, Don Henley, Joe Walsh, Don Felder and Randy Meisner, to me that’s the greatest band ever.
Don Henley is a very interesting person! His perspective on things is so encouraging, and so humble.
It doesn't sound like he has a whole lot of humility in reality. gradually pushed Felder's share down to a third of his on some of the things they were releasing during their big second run in the 90s and 2000s. When felder didn't agree, they said "he was bad for band chemistry" and kicked him out. Every time Henley talks, he can't resist complaining about not getting his fair share of money every time any of their music is used online.
@@daw162 you could not know with any certainty. Are you Felders brother? Maybe Henley is an ass, maybe Felder is, or maybe they both have their own version. Finally who cares? Rhonda said he’s interesting to her and encouraging. Don’t shit on her opinion because you think you know something.
Very bright very talented, bit of an arse and a control freak.
There is no surprise Don Henley was/is a success. This man is full of wisdom. Yes these 2 should collaborate.
Don Henley's intelligence shines whenever he opens his mouth (singing or in interviews with him), there's no fool to prove here. He is well-rounded, and so well-spoken. His parents must have been brilliant as well (genius in the genes).
Linden, Texas, center of genius
refreshing as far as celebs go...dying breed
@@billferrell7740 yeah who would have thought
Two unaffected, approachable, people-loving artists. A breath of fresh air.
Don has an incredible memory
I cannot believe Don’s voice speaking is so low and this vocals are so incredibly high. What a talent. Great man and artist.
He also lacks ANY soul while telling a story. But his singing voice is just insane.
I totally agree!! That was my first thought as well!
Right?? How?? Jeez I’d love to hit those high notes he sings!
@@MrPrice2U I find his story telling very soothing.
@@MrPrice2Ugimme a break.
I love what Don says about Dolly Parton's voice, because he absolutely nailed it.
I agree. Dolly is a National Treasure for a myriad of reasons.
What Don says about Dolly Parton starting at the 34:15 mark just about brought me to tears. What a beautiful description of her voice.
thegorn68 100% agree. Never heard a better description. Nails it like only a poet can.
And how she said she "had to rare back and get it." And then left the hospital to do a video only to return to the hospital after. That's one tough lady as well.
His respect for her is phenomenal! It was a musician's respect for another musician, so eloquently spoken!
Gave me chills listening to it, so beautiful
Billy says he wishes he had a “band” like the eagles to go back to. He does! He fired em!
Exactly he fired all the members
I think he meant that he wanted to just be a part of the band, not the main voice.
Or he could have stayed with the Shangri-Las
Henley is right on about the non-categorization of music in the old days. The old AM radio would play Perry Como, The Supremes, Johnny Cash, The Stones, all in the same half hour
Go online..try stations like WLNG out of sag Harbor NY...still "keeping it real"...since 1963. Its free to listen and easy. Check them out.
Yeah,now most categories are filled with junk,country,pop,whatever,it’s mostly worthless junk.
I think the wide variety that everyone was exposed to produced a commonality, an appreciation and respect for all types of music that is missing now.
Don Henley is very introspective and a pure genius. He gets totally lost in his thoughts. I love the sound of his voice whether speaking or singing .
like Jeff Porcaro, the drummer of TOTO speaks in a serious voice.
Henley's memory and recall is unbelievable.
Kudos to both Don and Billy. This is one of the best interviews I've ever heard.
Two nice blokes without hidden agendas.
@@gandalfshakur8235 Don is definitely a jerk when it comes to copyright as he doesn't let any of his songs from the eagles get used on youtube for anything, even when people use small clips of his songs for education.
I know I could sit and listen to 2 freind Rock ledges sit and talk to each other just fascinating and entertaining
P
@@Bluman2 Wrong!
Can you imagine how many people would want to collaborate with Billy Joel or Don Henley? Just every musician and songwriter in the world.
I laughed when Don Henley said that now he feels a little more comfortable calling himself a songwriter, because I've always thought of him as a great songwriter. Many of his lyrics have expressed the feelings at the center of my heart so well. His song "Heart of the Matter" brought a lot of healing to me years after my parents divorce.
A lot of his lyrics are very cynical but very pragmatic. I loved his solo stuff
Marc Sawatzki definitely agree
How about Don Henley's "Forgiveness"? Reminds me of my ex-wife. I blew it, told her so and asked her for forgiveness, but she hates me even after 40 years.
Same, Long Road out of Eden has so many songs that spoke to me at the time, and still do.
when i listen to that song it reminds me of my parents divorce.....& MY divorce....but it is a GREAT song and Henley HEALS!!!
I have always felt that the Eagles “Desperado” album was their best. It was their second album and was not received well from the critics. It tells a story all the way through from the first track to the end. Kind of like a rock opera with a old western story line. My favorite track is the last. The Doolin Dalton/ Desparado reprise. CLASSIC!
Agree, the Desperado album is strangely overlooked/underrated.
In my oh so humble opinion I think Desperado is their very best song! Any song that gives you an "emotion" is always terrific!
@@marybarry2230 ruclips.net/video/mKNgd9pGgnE/видео.html
Desperado AND Doolin dalton, which always takes you somewhere....
.
I was drawn to this interview because the Eagles have always been my all-time favorite band. At 15, I fell in love with both my first husband and the Eagle’s! I’m 62 now and although my first marriage didn’t last, my love for the Eagle’s music has never left my heart! I knew Don Henley was an intelligent man but I had no idea just how intelligent. His memory of events from his childhood and name’s of people who effected his career blew me away! At 62 I can remember event’s that happened throughout my life but my short term memory is fading. Don appears to have total recall and I was very impressed with his knowledge of the past. For a man that has achieved great accomplishments and stardom, I found him to be very humble and genuine.
the best interviews i have heard are one legendary musician asking another musician questions. They just get it
What a lovely conversation between two intelligent and thoughtful gentlemen.❤
Billy Joel is always a classy guy.... always.
I would not say "always"!
Billy Joel imo is the greatest singer songwriter in history..... That being said, he is a total asshole 😂
His RUSSIA tour amazing !
@@rickalessi7490 He can get away with it. Just because he's the greatest singer/songwriter of all time, everyone automatically gives him a pass.
Brian, agreed! In my opinion, he was the ACTUAL reason that the Cold War ended..
This is one of the best interviews I have ever seen. Both of these guys are my heroes. To me they both do Americana music, which is dear to me.
An uplifting interview .. an unexpected treat.
I love the honesty and the humble way Billy and Don share.
LOL - and the funny part is, those are two words (especially "humble") that you would never associate with Henley!! 😅
Billy Joel and Don Henley are amazing! I love their music! They are two of my favorites!
Both of these guys are two of the best songwriters ever. Think two great examples are "End of the innocence" by Don Henley. And "Leningrad" by Billy Joel. Lyrics that can reach your soul and help you reflect on your own life's experiences.
After seeing this video. I think a lot more of Don Henley than I used to. Dan Hatley seems to be a very cool person. I always loved the Eagles. Being a solo instrumental, guitaris . Hotel, California is one of my favorite songs to play. Hats off to you Don Henley. Thanks for all the music and all that you contributed to society thank you.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😁🎸🎼🎶🎵🎸☮️
Don Felder wrote the music for "Hotel California."
He has such a great memory! All these radio stations he remembers!
I live in the area and he is spot on!
What a terrific interview! I've never had a chance to hear the Eagles or Don Henley in concert, but I did have a chance to see Billy Joel at a concert at a small community college in NJ in the mid 70's. What a show! These 2 are true icons in the music world.
I was 16 when I took my mom to an Eagles concert in 76'.. Their encore song was Hotel California, months before it was released!.. yea.. so much more to say but. yea.. good old days..
I saw the Eagles in their Hell Freezes Over tour, 1994. It was INCREDIBLE! I could still be sitting there enjoying their music from them to now.
No, they are flesh and blood - icons hang in churches.
I was in the front row when Don Henley played Red Rocks in 1985 (Katrina and the Waves opened for him). And then I also saw the Eagles in Denver when they got back together in the mid-90s.
And 8 years later Billy Joel does in fact write a masterpiece ❤
I always knew Don Henley was a genius, and this proves it.
Don Henley’s Sunset Grill is a masterpiece.
Dixie Land Jazz? No wonder he has so much depth. Playing sophisticated music, with adults. It's no wonder the Eagles were never tripped out, psychedelic, but singer-songwriter. I saw the History of the Eagles tour with Glen, and was blown away! Glen's and Don's voice were literally perfect. Most people start to sound old and worn out by 65. The Eagles was the best concert I ever saw, aside from Merle Haggard with the Strangers (basically a country big band). Merle spared no expense, even though it was a county fair! Like Merle, Don is about integrity. Regardless of what Robin Crosby has said about the Eagles.
The Eagles have always been a much loved band in our household. My mom's favorite song was Take it to the Limit. She passed just before covid hit but this song will always remind me of her. My favorite Henley song is Heart of the Matter. Ironically a song my ex-husband and I always had playing in the car before we ended up divorced.
I am very familiar with all the Eagles, past and present and all the talent that has encompassed this legendary band BUT I never really listened to any interviews or know too much about them aside from their tremendous musical gifts. I heard stories about Henley and always assumed he wasn't very nice. He always looks so stern and serious, a bit angry even... Well I am soooo glad I listened to this interview and now have a whole other perception!
Henley is very introspective and deep. He also shows wonderful thought and consideration for others. He is not only a great song writer and talent, his voice is beautiful.
Great interview!!
Love his reference to ‘The Mothership’. Shows that he is a really genuine guy. Great job Billy!
Great to hear these two legends talking about their life experiences
Seems that Henley always knows where to find the stories.....his ability as a poet is underrated
+Franklin Wilson Great songwriter.
I could listen to these 2 talk for weeks!
Amen, Don! You nailed it! You don't recognize modern Country Music as Country! Travis Tritt sang it aptly, Country Ain't Country No More!
Cool. Two of America's premier song writers and entertainers! Appreciated the accolade to Glen Campbell - one of the most talented, ever!
Don Henley was standing next to me when I said to him; "Mr. Henley, I've chosen your campaign to save Walden as the topic of my term paper this semester." Well, THAT got his interest! He showed a great level of sincerity in wanting to help me find sources for my research on the paper. Even as he was being pulled away by his entourage her turned to find me just to say; "Good luck on your paper." I thought that he was very generous with his time towards wanting to help and talk to me. (Just FYI this was at a live radio broadcast at the Hard Rock Cafe in NYC about 1990.)
Hank Machuga Very cool, thank you for sharing this!
Makes me like him even more...but, being female, that man is mmmmm, adorable!! 😄
@@Melinda8162 ....mmmmmm, no , he's a dousche...Next
@@dinopappous6639 this is right, the man is great but he believes he's greater than what he really is, he is great, not a genius, Billy Joel is better
@@yassirhv1 Paul Carrack blows them both away
I have new respect for Don after hearing his story. I grew up listening to Glen Campbell and Buck Owens. And being a drummer that finally learned how song and play I FEEL HIM when he explained how hard that is. Cheers Don!!
I think there are only a few people in the history of this planet who could both play drums and sing well, both live and professionally. He is among those very few.
@@MichaelFontana081153 From personal experience, it's tougher playing bass guitar and singing.
@@leekosmin8788 I find it virtually impossible, although if I just play the root notes, and the song is simple, I can manage it. Drumming, on the other hand, is physically draining. Plus, you have to sing, with cadence and subtlety. Doing it on stage for two hours might be possible for maybe nobody....
It is April 15, 2020. I'm thankful for 92Y, and especially Billy and Don. I watched this during a hard night of being alone. Sometimes you never know who you will touch by doing the ordinary
I'm just now looking at this in May 2020... 💯♥️
Fun as well as enlightened.
I get a hard night being alone. I have always liked billy and don, musically as well as there personanallity. I know how hard it is to sing while playing percussion. I love there home town ethics
@@curtisyost5247 just like Ringo Starr.
Billy did a great job and Don is very articulate and intelligent...this was great great fun ...very entertaining.
Has to stop picking at his nose though. I love him, but I have heard people who have been in his company say, he's smug.
Fuck Don Henley.
@@markusaurelius777 fuck you too
Thanks Billy!
Love Billy Joel.....He did a Great Job interviewing Don Henley.
Don, and Billy, I'm sure you've heard some version of this before. I'm 59 years old. Your music helped me define my life, when I was a teenager and after. When music is so profound, that the listener, with little imagination, can see themselves in the situation you sing about, and it brings comfort, and understanding, at a youthful time in our lives, when nothing else does, then that's much more than important. I want to say, God Blessed both of you guys, but God blessed the public that enjoys and relates to your music, even more. Thank You, so much.
The Eagles Music is most infectious. If I turn off my truck CD with them playing I cannot get that tune outta my head all day.
I don’t think I’ve listened to someone so intelligent Don you amaze me I’m younger than you and your memory amazes me love you 🥰
I love Billy Joel and Don Henley Awesome Guys !! 🙏💙💙
Legend in the making
It’s so cute how Billy Joel is fanboying over Don during this interview! 😆
It's refreshing to see Henley...a thoughtful quiet reserved...a measured rock star who's introverted
I have listened to this interview several times just because I like the sound of Don Henley's voice.
This is the first time I have ever listened to Don Henley giving an introspective interview. He's a thoughtful and considerate individual and extremely talented man. Thanks to Billy Joel and Don Henley for doing this.
I just caught this tonight. As I read the comments, yours Thor, are just about what I was going to say and more. A very enjoyable storytelling interview like I have never heard before from Don. Wonderful! 😊
Don Henley is like a sage of music here. Billy Joel seems in awe of him.
I think they both are in awe of each other,they are both genius.
Don Henley you need to write a book
To record your memory of your parents and grandparents in Tyler Texas . It’s like Faulkner . Billy Joel is great as.a Northeasten artist and if the culture of Phil Spector and Irving Berlin and s great songwriter . Joel is a perfect interviewer / fan to ask a great artist as Henley about music .
It’s great . Like all poets you respect the past !!
👍❤️🇺🇸
I’d love to hear a collaboration with these two geniuses
What a joy to listen to this program. Having the 4th top selling artist, Don Henley of the Eagles, talking and telling stories and sharing musical history with the 6th top selling artist, Billy Joel. The jewels of insight and wisdom and artistic process that the two of them share are invaluable for all that desire to be an artist!!! Thank you so much for this!!!!!
Don Henley has one of my favorite (if not THE favorite) voices of all time. It’s been a part of my life since I was about 7 or 8. Very distinctive. The fact that he’s a scholar and conservationist just adds to the admiration.
Saw with both of these guys, Billy in 1979 and the Eagles in 2014, Greatest concerts ever.
This is amazing. Two legends. Riveting interview!! And I completely agree with Henley. Country music today is NOT country music. And radio, back when it had no format was AWESOME.
One evening I was hanging with Bob Seger and we ended up back at his house with some friends. Bob put on some music and it was Henley. I was standing next to Bob and with no prompting for me said: "Henley is one of the best song writers ever."
I could sit and listen to Don Henley talk all night long. I know some people through knee jerk reactions like to lambast him, but he is truly a National Original and a National Treasure. So erudite, witty and generous. I feel each time I listen to him that I am a better person afterwards.
Also hats off to Billy Joel for being one of the most engaging hosts imaginable. One who knows that being an interviewer means being the prompt then getting out of the way. Bravo!
Don Henley and Phil Collins, both fabulous singers and drummers. I was so beyond impressed when I first realized they were doing both simultaneously.
And Karen Carpenter.
two highly talented musical artists with immeasurable substance indeed-meet my standards
Hello Joan
I hold so much love and respect for Don Henley! A man of great intelligence and has not forgot his roots. That great bluesy voice can still wail and one of the great lyricists. I do hope that Don and Billy collaborate at some point.
A Don Henley Billy Joel collabo record would be a great gift for the planet earth
would be great
Don Hensley is a poor guy who has talent and made his fortune one song at a time for a lifetime. Thanks Don Hensley of the EAGLES!
I don't even know how I got here but I thoroughly enjoyed this. Two absolute giants in the industry who I grew up with and both of their respective catalogs are part of the soundtrack to my life.They both have had unbelievable and respectable careers.
I adore Don Henely I have followed him and his music my whole life. He is and will always be my all time favorite!!! Billy Joel is also a very talented artist and I love his music also!!
Don felder made the band 5000x better. One of the best guitarists ever
Henley never gives Don Felder any credit. If you look at sheet music of Hotel California from it's first release. The by line mentioned Felder first. Today look at the Hotel California sheet music Felder is the last one mentioned. I'm sure Henley today would love to completely remove Felders name from the sheet music by line.
Not better than Joe Walsh.
Don Henley, considered, patient and articulate, thanks for the Music, stay well, regards from England.
Always loved Henley. An articulate and thoughtful person. Thanks 92Y for sharing this for free to all.
Jay Ryan Kamins how can you say that??
Love Don Henley, too. Not only for the incredible music he has created BUT for his environmental concerns with the Walden Woods Project. Our family shares his concern in the future ahead.....and we grew up similarly to him, small town in Pa..... with so many changes in the past few decades. We pray everyday for our children & their future . Thank you, Don Henley, Carry on.... Eric & Gwen Hull
@P4P KING ....I find him rather "douschey" .....
Henley is a pompous ass.
Billy Joel? A natural
2 of musics greats! WHO are the 209 people that gave them a thumbs down, and why?
Wow! One of the best interviews ever! My favorite musicians together!!!
Two, music minded mindsets, on comon ground. . . Astounding thoughts and memories, treasured true, memories coming up that otherwise probably would have never happened😮🥰 Also, Bringing back wonderful memories, of hearing a variety of new sounds, poetry messages of real life. . . Coming from Music from far away stations in the midnight hours; I enjoyed Even Wolfman Jack😁
"The higher the hair the Closer to God"❣️Truly a wonderful, excellent, shared gifts heard here🥹
Don Henley has a competent grasp of the English language. Always worth listening to, in speech, & in music.
So true,
Man, for some reason I feel like wanting this man never dies. I have so much respect and admiration for him that a think a music without him loses its purpose
Well said.
Two of my musical hero's, realising we all get old. I am still stuck in the last century.
J
So many great memories from both of their talents...lovely.
We grow up together, depending on one another. The Eagles got me through a lot of lonely nights and incredible moments. I grew up singing in the church, my father was a minister so I was constantly around music. Still appreciate their hard work and sacrifice. ALWAYS.
I love watching conversations like this. Two of the all-time greatest going back and forth. They both speak of their early days. Love it.
East Coast Icon meets West Coast Icon. So much great music, both musical pioneers. Billy made the piano cool and The Eagles made country-rock accessible.
Wow Billy has an amazing voice even for everyday talk as well as interviewing
He is very likable
Wow,2 of my fav singers in the world billy and don,great musician up to this day.
Bill does so well in these interview story telling sessions, I'd love it for him to host a weekly show where he'd interview song writers from the past 50 years or so. He does great on his college lecture tours, so I really think interviewing the greats would be right up his alley!! Looks like he won't be ever putting out any new material for an album, the sold out arenas will be get boring for him I imagine...so in his retirement years interview the greats would be just so informative, oh well....I can dream!
its not too surprising that he's great at these types of settings. he does have an honorary doctorate in humanities.
he had a great channel on sirius, for far to short a time, where he did a lot of that and told a lot of stories about where his songs come from, and what they're really about, it was wonderful, I really hate that it's gone
I agree with you. Billy makes a great host, & did an amazing job interviewing Don. Billy Joel has always been known to be hilarious too, which makes it even more entertaining. I loved it when he'd mock the different styles & voices of others. It's very creative, entertaining, & hilarious, too.

Wonderful interview. I learned much about Henley that really makes me appreciate him more than ever.
Don Henley doesn’t mention Don Felder as part of the group, Felder filed a big lawsuit against the Eagles.
Two wonderfully talented Song Writer, Musicians. I enjoyed it very much. It's nice when the Ego takes a back seat to the conversation.
