In this video, Don Felder talks about how he wrote the famous song "Hotel California" and that iconic solo while he was a member of the Eagles. He also gives deeper insight into his songwriting process from the 70's to today.
Don Henley was insistent that Hotel California be released as a single even though Felder disagreed, believing that it wasn't the right programming for radio at the time. Felder says that he's never been so happy to have been so wrong as Hotel California became a hit.
