Don Felder carries the grand reputation as being one of the most accomplished guitarists ever in the world of classic rock. As a longtime member of The Eagles, as well as his axe wielding work with The Bee Gees, Stevie Nicks, Crosby & Nash, and many others superstar outings, his continuing impact on the rock music scene is staggering.
Growing up in Florida with friends and future rockstars like Duane Allman, Bernie Leadon, Stephen Stills and Tom Petty, Don Felder mastered the guitar at a very early age and soon was making recordings and playing sessions. After being hired as David Crosby and Graham Nash touring guitarist, The Eagles later brought him in to record on their smash On The Border, eventually joining the band for the rest of their recorded output on Asylum Records. Co-writing smash hits like Hotel California, Victim Of Love and Those Shoes, Don Felder s contributions to one of the most successful recording acts of all time were truly rewarding to fans all over the world.
Upon leaving The Eagles after the hugely successful The Long Run album, a few years later Don Felder delivered a treasure trove of great tunes with his dynamic first solo album Airborne.
Featuring the hit Never Surrender co-written with the legendary Kenny Loggins and two more great singles with Who Tonight and Bad Girls, as well as more rockin classics like Night Owl, all truly making this one of the best recordings of Don s long career.
