Not sure of the specific details regarding Felder's departure. I do know that the lawsuits were either settled or thrown out (I believe the latter) and that Felder has a book about the Eagles coming out at the end of the month. Had mine on pre-order for a couple months now. Should be interesting, if one-sided. Like the others, I can't call it the Eagles without him. Just not the same.

Sounds like an early Boogie to me...
Here's some magazine clips you can download about how he got his tone from an article that came out right after Walsh joined the band. I have no idea what magazine it's from. On "One of these Nights" he used a tweed deluxe with 6l6's in a closet with hard walls with the mic about 4 feet away from the amp.

12 year old thread, but nice print piece on Felder's tone and nice pre-Walsh video. Awesome. I like Walsh, but Felder was the better player all the way around. Maybe not as good a showman as Walsh though. Leadon was my fav, here on tele. See the pile of Fender amps at 4:20.
