Glenn Frey has apparently taken it to the limit at 67.

RIP

Probably one of the best vocalists in rock and roll, with some awesome vocal stacks behind him. Joe Walsh singing harmony is weird.

When that was actually something.

UC, tough way to go.

um... no. If you had said songwriter I might agree.

Joe Walsh singing harmony is weird.

Only that in The Eagles needed Joe Walsh more than he needed them.

Was reading a comment on this YT video about how Henley showed up at a club in Texas, shitfaced and hopped up on stage and sang this with mojo. Bet that was fun to watch.

As for the seemingly universal hatred of the Eagles here, I don't really get that. Those fukkers put together a pretty damn good mishmash of country and rock, IMO. I wish they had stayed together and spared us all the 80s Henley/Frey faggotry.

Sunday night was the last worthless evening Glenn would have to stand.

The Flying Burrito Brothers...

You can also count the later iterations of The Byrds and of course all of Gram Parson's limited solo catalog.

The Long Run tour in Raleigh, NC, November, 1979. My first concert ever.

I like Joe Walsh but, really, most of the Eagles' best work was done before he joined the band.

The Flying Burrito Brothers and Mason Proffit among them. Poco did some nice work.

I liked a few Eagles songs. Chug All Night, Peaceful Easy Feeling ("I like the way your sparkling earrings lay against your skin so brown") and Tryin' from the first album. Desperado was a nice album. Already Gone and Midnight Flyer from On the Border, I liked. That was the last Eagles album I ever owned.

I was never a huge Eagles fan. Never bought any of their albums but I liked their music. I could hear it plenty all over the radio and in every dorm when I was in college in the early 70s. Maybe not the greatest of the genre, whatever that was, but they brought great songwriting, incredible vocal harmonies and a unique sound that was more accessible to a lot of people than the Burrito Brothers, etc. Poco put out some good songs but the Eagles were a level above Poco.

Don't know about the rest of the country but they were YUUUGE in SoCal in the 70s. Believe it or not they were pretty original at the time. A little too formulaic for my taste, as a recent Bay Area transplant and dedicated Deadhead, but they were very influential musically and reflected the times.

Also...Jack Tempchin, who wrote or co-wrote a bunch of their songs, was a local around Encinitas (still is) and performed solo a lot around the area.
