on the first album, peaceful easy feeling was written by our friend and frequent collaborator, jack. i got a peaceful, easy feeling peaceful easy feeling captures the time, captures this attitude. you can feel the wind blowing across the desert. whoa, what a feeling the second hit was witchy woman, which i wrote with bernie. witchy woman started out as a guitar figure. then we were jamming it one day, and everybody was digging it. then henley came back the next day with the lyrics. wavy hair and ruby lips, sparks fly from her fingertips
