Glenn Frey - R.I.P.
« on: January 18, 2016, 03:31:21 pm »
One of my favorite musical artists. Dead at 67. A complete shock to me... As was Bowie

Quote
Glenn Frey, co-founder and guitarist for the Eagles, has died ... TMZ has learned.
We're told the cause of death was a combination of complications from rheumatoid arthritis, acute ulcerative colitis, and pneumonia.
Frey had been battling intestinal issues for months and had surgery in November. We're told in the last few days his condition took a turn for the worse. He died in New York City.
Glenn co-wrote and sang on most of the Eagles hits, including "Take It Easy," "Tequila Sunrise," "Lyin' Eyes," and "Heartache Tonight," to name a few. He also co-wrote "Hotel California" and "Desperado" with Don Henley and took home 6 Grammys with the band.
After the Eagles' 1980 breakup, Glenn launched a successful solo career, recording numerous hits ... most notably "The Heat Is On" and "You Belong to the City."

Glenn Frey - You Belong To The City




Just heard about his passing. In 2 weeks time, we have lost some giants in the industry. First it was Lemmy, then it was Bowie. And now Frey. What a horrible month this has turned out to be. RIP to all 3 of them. I'm posting my favorite Frey song here.

Awesome song.

I love his solo stuff. I highly recommend his live album.

I made a strong encouragement to the band, to take on The Heat Is On
