Frankly, if I saw him coming down the street, I'd start walking in the opposite direction.

What's interesting is that he was less bitter (although definitely bitter) in the 70's than the last time I spoke with him in 2001 (which I've detailed in the past).
The segments with David Geffen are hysterical and painful at the same time. But Henley was dumb enough to sign with him twice, so part of the blame lies with him.
Seeing Irving Azoff was interesting as well. I started at Universal (MCA) after all the payola trials, mafia crap, etc. but heard plenty of nasty things about him.
