Typical Don Felder,
By "planitz3" (Granite City, IL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Airborne (Audio CD)
That's right it's typical Don Felder! Which of course means it's great! This entire album has the same flavor as one of the coolest rock songs ever. Don's big contribution to the Heavy Metal soundtrack "Heavy Metal(Takin' A Ride)" It truly reflects in such songs as " Bad Girls" which most Mtv fanatics from the Eighties would know the video featured Cheech Marin of Cheech and Chong fame. Then there's the song "Never Surrender" which also features Kenny Loggins on vocals which makes the song sound very commercial but it's one of those that you'll continually hum just out of the blue. Most of the album has this flavor to it. I played the heck out of this tape when I had it and wore it out. Now it's on cd and I recommend it to anyone who collects cds. It's a must have!

Great Solo Flight For Eagles Guitarist,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Airborne (Audio CD)
AIRBORNE, the only solo album by Eagles guitarist Don Felder, is great. The songs are instantly hummable, and the grooves rock like sort of a West Coast blend of War and Grand Funk Railroad. It should be noted that this album includes "Never Surrender", which was also on the soundtrack to the film FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH, one of THE coolest teen flicks ever. This album is an all-time classic that just gets better with time.

The Outcast Don.,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Airborne (Audio CD)
After reading about this album in Don's book, Heaven and Hell, I thought I would give it a listen. Don's own critique about this album is spot on. The album lacks punch, and a hit, but the overall feel is relaxed and the tunes have a way of growing on you. I'd say that this album is "good", but lacks anything "great" that will have you coming back over and over again. Buying this record won't break the bank so it is an easy way to end any curiosity you might have.All in all it was nice to hear what Don was doing on his own while the Eagles toiled in their break-up period. Now that Don is permanently removed from the Eagles, perhaps he will get to writing and performing a new album with a more serious tone to it. I've seen Don performing live twice since he departed the Eagles and his live show is great, so I anxiously await his next venture. In the meantime, this becomes a dust collector that I listen to occasionally, just to see if I missed something the first few dozen times I heard it.
