Pretty much no, it's not. You think those people on 60 Minutes all wanted to be recorded?

Some states do forbid parties to a phone conversation from recording it without the knowledge (not necessarily the explicit consent) of the other party. Even then, it may not be "illegal" in the "you'll go to jail for doing this" sense, though it usually is "illegal" in the "you can't use the recording as evidence in court" sense.

Disclaimer: before you decide to go ahead and do this, you should definitely consult a local attorney for an opinion on whether it would be permissible in your specific case... I'm just saying there isn't really a total blanket prohibition on it in general.
