I downloaded the app from the site and it is free and was able to watch the whole thing. Well worth it as Bernie is interviewed extensively and offers some great insight into the band from it's inception through his departure which he admits was his need to break from the drugs and the partying. Pretty much the last half hour covers the Eagles with interviews with Bernie, JD Souther and David Geffen. There is some great footage of one of the Eagles very first gigs at an art gallery in Venice. Bernie's got that cool surfer drawl and you can't help but admire his integrity, wit and charm.

Oh cool - thanks for investigating further!
Re: Bernie videos on YouTube and other video sites
Happy to do it. You gals are cracking me up with the Leadon love. But I guess I can't blame you, the guy still surfs to this day which is why I think he's still in great shape with the broad shoulders and big guns. dude's a stud.

Here's Bernie from the same performance with the reunited (and legendary) Scottsville Squirrel Barkers performing "Sophronie (Love 'Em and Leave 'Em)":

Behind Bernie in the green hats is Ed Douglas and Larry Murray (who was also in Hearts and Flowers with Bernie), Chris Hillman and Kenny Wertz (who replaced Bernie in the Flying Burrito Brothers). Good to see these guys still get together to jam some classic bluegrass.

Thanks for posting this. I really hope that one day I'll get to see Bernie perform live, even if it's in a backing capacity.
Re: Bernie videos on YouTube and other video sites
Here's an early live recording of Hearts and Flowers from 1968 at the Hollywood Bowl featuring our man Bernie on guitar and harmonies:
