If memory serves, Lindsey's song on Don's album was, "You Can't Make Love". Yes, the disc is in the next room, but I'd have to get up and go look! It sounds like Lindsey's guitar playing, but I never could really hear his voice on it.
Ever since $tevie got Lindsey fired, I've been much more into the Eagles. I'm absolutely obsessed with History of the Eagles. I've watched the entire thing probably close to 100 times. And the weird thing is that I think both Henley and Frey are COMPLETE DICKS. Horrible, selfish people. Yet I'm inexplicably drawn!

I agree that Henley and Frey were ruthless tyrant S.O.B.s
Henley has a soft spot in my heart when he hung up the phone on Stevie when she told him she was marrying her best friend's husband.
However without a doubt, Henley, Felder, and Frey were perfectionists with huge egos.
The writing between Henley and Frey is incredible yet still so underrated.
