Just so everyone knows, that's Don Felder and Joe Walsh playing the guitar solo duet in this video. Glenn Frey can be seen off to the left side of the stage, playing the acoustic guitar.

The video is incorrectly labeled. This famous lead guitar solo duet was always played and performed by Don and Joe, on the studio album recordings and live.
