“Felder and Walsh were in the control room, one to the right, one to the left, like gunfighters! Felder was the ultimate technician. Walsh was the ultimate ‘feel’ guy. Together they were phenomenal”: The making of the Eagles’ masterpiece

Don Felder and Joe Walsh of The Eagles perform on stage at Ahoy on 11th May 1977 in Rotterdam, Netherlands.

“Things got louder,” Don Henley says of the moment when guitar hero Joe Walsh joined his band.

It was 1975, and the Eagles were riding high with the success of their fourth album One Of These Nights, which had topped the US Billboard 200 chart and yielded three huge hit singles with the title track (also No 1), Lyin’ Eyes (No 2) and Take It To The Limit (No 4).
