Inside Job is the fourth album by American rock musician Don Henley. Released through the Warner Bros. record label on May 23, 2000,[1] the album is currently his last album of all-new material to date.

The song "Goodbye to a River" was apparently named after the book of the same title by John Graves. In the album's liner notes Henley wrote: "Respect and gratitude to fellow Texan, John Graves, for his inspirational writing - Goodbye to a River (1960) and other books." The album was the first solo album for Henley in 11 years, the album reached #7 on the charts and released two Adult Contemporary Tracks singles with "Taking You Home", and "Everything's Different Now". "Taking You Home" was also released as a single on the Billboard Hot 100 and reached #58.
