I just finished this up. Plenty of stuff about Irving Azoff in it.

Overall it's a good read. I liked the quote where Glen Frey says that Don Henley "sucks the fun out of any room he enters." Laughing

Yeah, it was a fairly good read, but honestly this book is a far better, more expansive informative biography of the tumultuous Eagles:

http://www.amazon.com/Limit-Untold-Story-Eagles/dp/030681398X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1247105111&sr=8-1

Definitely one of the very best music books I've read, and I've read a lot of them. For the record I'm a huge Felder fan and I know he got a raw deal from those egomaniacs Frey and Henley, so no knock on him. But To The Limit is a great book.

The Felder book had a lot of background on his life before The Eagles, which was definitely interesting (the bits about his early friendships with Stills, Tom Petty, Allman etc.), but I was expecting more inside dirt on the inner working of The Eagles.

I think legalities handcuffed everything he could say. I enjoyed it, but will check out your recommendation for sure.

It's funny, I just searched the book real quick on Amazon.. didn't see it didn't have the best reviews. I still say read it, I think you'll really enjoy it, esp if you're an Eagles fan
