Felder's "Heaven and Hell" Discussion Thread

[Funk 50]

When Timothy B. Schmit joined the Eagles he commented on how refreshing it was that all the money, barring the songwriting revenue, was split equally. Obviously that didn't happen in Poco.

When Felder joined in 1974 he got equal shares, including an equal partnership in the company. The other four members took a pay cut (1/4 to 1/5) to accommodate him.

Greedy eh?

It may be in part a reaction to the excessive Felder-love in some other places.

Agreed.

The dislike for Felder is way strong here. I can feel the animosity seeping from my computer monitor. LOL

Agreed, but it is what it is. Fortunately, both Felder fans and Felder not-fans can have a voice here. I've also learned to keep my mouth shut over the years when possible as it just works out better that way. After a while it's the "beating of a dead horse". On both views, truthfully, including mine.

That said, I'm very grateful that the "other" view is able to have a presence on the forum as well.

i just think he's gorgeous. AND I hope someday they all can work out their differences. I dont know the deep deep story about all that but maybe one day they will sort things out.

That gorgeous man is very keen to patch up their differences now, after driving the band to sack him, then suing them, then releasing a book full of sordid details that has permanently damaged their reputations.

Well to the best of my awareness Don Henley doesn't address him by forename, only 'Mr. Felder' (on HOTE at least). Make of that what you will...

Just went back to check that over and he seems to use them interchangeably. Still quite a stern term of address mind.
