Fifteen minutes with former Eagles guitarist Don Felder

It was the morning of my birthday when the phone rang and former Eagles guitairst Don Felder was on the other end. Happy Birthday to me! Don Felder is my favorite Eagle, he was like the George Harrison of the group - the quiet guy who created a lot of the band's signature sound, but who's work was overshadowed by the group's stronger personalities. We discussed this, his new album, "Road to Forever," his thoughts on being canned from the band, his guitar teacher (Duane Allman) as well as his guitar student (Tom Petty), and how much amazing rock came to surface 40 years ago.
