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.
I think that everyone that ever left the band, left because of Glenn. I think he was horrible, selfish person. I mean, I'm sure they wouldn't have had the success they had without him, but watching behind the scenes footage, I think he was a first class PRICK(even though he mellowed in later years - just like Lindsey). It was HIS way or the highway. I also think he was INCREDIBLY JEALOUS when Don became "the voice" of the Eagles. "It's MY BAND, you dick!!!"

I saw Henley solo several times back in the day. I never saw Glenn solo. What does that tell you?
Henley's like Christine. I could listen to him sing the phone book.
