THE EAGLES - MR. DON FELDER - (The Hotel California Story)

[@kimtan0627]

Don Felder and Joe Walsh, my ultimate favorite Eagles member

[@user-bh3se5vg6n]

Me paro para aplaudir a este maestro de la guitarra. nunca pensé que podrían sacar esas melodías con una guitarra acústica. Don Felder es el único capaz de hacerlo.

[@rajibdattaroy9338]

am the only one who likes the solo more in acoustic than in electric ?? it sounds so soulfull!!

[@ArHarsh]

Rajib Datta Roy ....me too

[@rohankshetrimayum1049]

Me too

[@jvpascual3211]

Another factor is that Don Felder is just that good and is really under appreciated as a guitar god

[@iqballabqi3765]

Cause he play gm chord in acoustic and more soulfull with simple backing track

[@Jhilke-Dai-12345]

one man got suddenly an idea and created this typical special feeling best definining music. mankind have hundred thousands of feelings, there are still many creative compositions left on this planet.

I was born more than 20 years later after the 1977's version was released. Not many people from my generation in my country know this song. Yet I'm so happy to know this since my father is a guitarist and he used to perform this song on stage when he was young and he's still playing it now when he's 70.

[@agi1041]

Fantastic. Don Felder is 74 years old today.

[@donatagenelli7814]

Looks so much younger, very handsome man ❤

[@denniswasit]

5:30 here you go

[@lancespina2472]

It is amazing that he wrote that entire guitar part, including solo, by himself with no lyrics. Then the lyrics were added later by Henley. The universe was determined that the song had to be written.

[@sarvag13]

Once a legend, always a legend! Throughout the countless ones I've seen, have hardly ever heard a better solo than one played by Mr. Don Felder himself. He remains golden at any age. Kudos to you sir!

[@titanihaiadiaz8278]

i feel like if i heard this live, i’d cry happy tears!!

[@edwinso3627]

The audience could have just kept quiet and just listened to the man's acoustic guitar solo. Damn, that was so nice to listen to.

[@arvannoy5216]

Wow ...what a classy guy!

[@deanmrooms8002]

Don Felder is the man ... 🎤

[@maem365]

The Best Song Ever. Felder the best and most handsome too. The others members of the Eagles got jealous of him.

[@LonelyHeartsChannel]

I've watched the band being interviewed a few times. No one looked nor sounded happier than Don Felder. He's a free man away from them.

[@clorindaapaza6926]

Lo mejor de mi época ❤ gracias por brindarme esa felicidad serán siempre importante en mi vida ❤

This is the only song that I can listen infinite times!!!!❤️

I'm a huge Eagle fan and Don Felder was my crush among the Band Members back in early '80s when I was a teen... and I still do😊. Great Lead Guitarist. A simple guy that always smiles 😊.

Never imagine it would sound so much better than electric guitar ?! Gives me goosebumps... 💯❣️❣️

I didn't think that solo could get more beautiful. Less that the last double string part could be played by only one man! Impressive

Don Felder is great

[@billwhitton500]

Don has superb phrasing and note choice in his soloing...not many rock players have the sort of melodic touch he has....i hope he does more writing and developing of his guitar talent because it's up there with the very best....

[@paulpecchio5690]

Don Felder in a stunning performance, with the solo of "Hotel California" on an acoustic guitar. In the early 2000s, I had the pleasure of dining at the famous restaurant on the Santa Monica Pier where the "Eagles" composed the wonderful "Tequila Sunrise" and "Lyin' Eyes". And right next to the table where they used to sit, now a historic piece where no one sits at anymore. The best Californian group, along with The Mamas and The Papas, Beach Boys and Creedence Clearwater Revival. Eagles forever! Paul Pecchio Campo Belo neighborhood - SP

[@brianlubbers5310]

I'm proud to say Hotel California was the first album I ever owned. The documentary was very interesting and at the same time disappointing. Don Felder seemed like the only band member who wasn't greedy and/or petty. Still love the music though.

[@adamwilson6103]

if he wasn't greedy then why did he hate doing benefit concerts ?

[@stellarcompanion]

He wasn't affiliated with politics and was uninformed. He didn't feel like taking a stance for something that didn't interest him.

[@adamwilson6103]

That's irrelevant, hes says don and glenn where greedy people but yet he be grudged doing benefit gigs because he wasnt being paid.....that sounds just like greed to me

[@stellarcompanion]

Well at least now he does a lot of charity events and basically wants an excuse to play anywhere despite compensation. He's a very humble man and just wanted to play music. When he got kicked out it's because he felt like nobody wanted to be around each other.

[@adamwilson6103]

yes he's humble now....with age comes ability to be alot more humble....

[@kodipettallubaabaai8591]

God playing !!!

[@DavidMThangliana]

I was hoping to hear how Mr Felder came up with the lyrics because it is not only the music but the words of the song that made Hotel California famous. I interpreted the lyrics way back in 1996 which I published in a magazine (local of course). I wonder whether my interpretation of thr lyrics are true - it's about the transition of America from alcohol to drugs

[@pauly71]

I read a Don Henley interview and he said the lyrics represented their (Eagles) transition from their innocent background to the rock lifestyle of drug taking. Did Felder write the lyrics? I thought Henley and Frey did and Felder wrote the music only? Maybe I'm wrong.

[@DavidMThangliana]

@@pauly71 I really don't know who wrote the lyrics, but from what I could get of the interview, I just jumped to the conclusion that anyone from the band would know how the song came into being. Thanks for your reply

[@mughal2209]

Forget the stats.... greatest song and band period... as far as the public is concerned. Felder was a great musician but it's the mystical lyrics that made Hotel California what is is. Very unique and revolutionary style not to mention daring. Felder in my opinion got greedy after he realized how famous this song became... he was not Mr everything as he claims....if he was then why couldn't help duplicate his success without the Eagles. Henry and Frye were the driving force behind the Eagles.

[@ROWBRONCO]

Well, ... yeah !!! maybe !! ... So the typical question can be applied here; What was first, the egg or the chicken ?? Felder brought the main theme and the other guys put some lyrics, .... so ??

[@gilbertmrong8696]

Woow nice play guitar

[@petersutton523]

It's just so sad. These guys (Felder, Henley, Frey et al) were all millionaires several times over but they all just wanted more. They were living a beautiful life of pure hedonism all funded by the people who loved their music and who paid for it from small wages they earned by driving trucks for days at a time away from their partners, or by risking their lives as cops, or by working on garbage collection. These honest, hard working souls could never have dreamed of the party life enjoyed by their musical heroes but still they supported and still they paid and enjoyed the stories of sex, drugs and rock and roll that somehow made their lives better How did "The Eagles" reward those who paid for their lavish and expensive lifestyle? A lifestyle by the way that included ridiculous, childish vandalism which would have seen any "ordinary" person jailed fora long time? By fighting and bickering like spoiled children, by throwing their toys into the corner and by storming off leaving those who had loyally supported them with nothing that's how. I have loved the music of The Eagles since I was 15 years old. It has meant a lot to me throughout my life as it has to my wife. For that reason we paid to see them play Wembley Stadium a year ago and for sure it brought back wonderful memories for us but I will say for sure that those memories are not what I would have wished because I know that the beautiful music is being produced by angry, selfish, grasping and needy children.

It was Glen Frey and Don Henley who grabbed the credit for the song Hotel California. Felder is just a low-profile man so with Randy Meisner and Bernie Leadon (original Eagles).
