Summary: I didn't know he did that.
Comment: As someone who was a child in the 1970s, I really wasn't hip to all the news of the day concerning bands like the Eagles. This was all old news by the time I was seriously listening to The Eagles. I liked the way Eliot weaved his way through the L.A. music scene to bring together what was the original Eagle's line-up and how he progressed though all the ego trips which caused the band to change(for the better ). This could have been a five star book had Eliot researched (or written) more about the abundant talents of Joe Walsh, Don Felder, and Timothy B. Schmit. I love to find out who is, and was, connected to whom, and this book does that for the average music fan.
Rating: 5
Summary: Well-researched
Comment: It's about time someone let us Eagles fans know exactly how the band's mannerisms were either on or off stage. Any true Eagles fan can tell you that there was always some animosity between the band members at any given time. Don Henley and Glenn Frey are two of the most accomplished singer/songerwriters/musicians in the music industy. This book also pays homage to that fact. If you're an Eagles fan and you want a book that is objective, complimenting, and well-researched. This is the book to purchase.

Summary: Excellent Biography
Comment: I enjoyed this book immensely. What happened to the Eagles happens a lot in pop/rock music.
The writing of the book is superb. The description of the LA music scene in the 60s and 70s is especially good. I also felt that the writer listened to everone, not just the people who screamed the loudest.
Eliot makes a wonderful point when discussing the relationship between Henley and Frey. The things that made them so effective together are the same things that drove them apart.
I did not particularly like the Eagles when I started reading this book but it has now piqued my interest to buy a couple of their CDs.
