Heaven And Hell: My Life In The Eagles (1974-2001) by Don Felder With Wendy Holden Book Review

I was super late to this, but I finally read Don Felder (ex lead guitarist of The Eagles) book earlier this year.

This book, called Heaven And Hell:  My Life In The Eagles (1974-2001), was released in the late 2000s.

Don collaborated with author Wendy Holden on this book.

As the title suggests, this book chronicles Don’s time in the hugely successful band The Eagles.  It also talks about his life leading up to being in the band and afterwards.

In short, it’s Don’s autobiography, and if you are a fan, I highly recommend reading this book.

Lots of stories.  Lots of details.

As a side note, I also highly recommend seeing Don in concert.  You will not be disappointed. 

Don is an extremely talented guitar player and actually is a very good singer too. 

He sings/plays The Eagles songs in concert and does a great job.  He also has a few really good solo albums too.  Check them out.

And check out this book.

Even if you are not a fan of The Eagles but just are a fan of music and bands in general, then this is quite the book to read about music and the music business.

Very good read.
