Wow, this sucks.
Another one gone. I never did go and see The Eagles, almost bought tix for the last tour but decided to catch them next time...... I have a doco at home (maybe called The Eagles Story??) that I recommend for anyone even slightly interested in the band. No doubt they were a talented bunch. Those vocal harmonies! |

I am absolutely shocked.
I remembered that he was crook and needed a fairly big operation after their tour finished - so much so that Don Henley said they wouldn't be making plans until afterwards. Fortunately I was at their last ever Aussie concert in Brisbane and they were still absolutely brilliant. I have every Eagles album and play them regularly - my equal best, favourite band ever. Such a talented musician who brought joy to many millions of people throughout the world. RIP Glenn Frey |

For some of us older members this past few weeks has shown us our youth is slipping away at a rate of knots.
RIP - his vocals formed a great part of a great 70's band. |

Way too young. Terrible news, major Eagles fan here. Listening to the Hotel California album for the first time at age 14 just blew my mind. Been a fan ever since and so glad I saw them in concert last year.
Glenn Frey was just an amazingly talented guy and responsible for what I reckon are the best lyrics ever in a song...... It's a girl my lord In a flat bed Ford Slowing down to take a look at me....... Take it easy........ Great motto in life.

Very sad. End of an era of great music, real music. Now we're stuck with untalented trash like Justin Bieber, ****** Bull,Miley Cyrus and RAP (******* attempting poetry) music...

Watched the History of The Eagles doco last night, for the umpteenth time.
Pretty much the best music doco I have seen. Recommended viewing especially for those who are not that familiar with the band. Just illustrates what a major loss Glenn Frey is to the music industry.
