Watching this interview makes the absence of Glenn Frey so poignant. He was such a talented songwriter and so integral to the success of the Eagles. I just recently went to the Eagles concert in New York where his son Deacon is singing his Dad’s songs. The band still sounds great but Glenn is so much missed. Thanks for all you gave us, Glenn.

Man I miss Glenn. Finally got to see the Eagles live last month and even though the show was amazing I couldn’t help but think of much I wished Glenn was on stage.

The heart of the Eagles. People this ambitious and talented are rarely this cool and laid-back. Glenn, Don, Randy, Felder and Walsh was one of the finest line ups of any band of all time.

World class talent

Been listening to the Eagles since 1975 and the world is not the same without Glenn Frey

Many might not notice how Glenn Frey assumes the silent workhorse role singing long winded (long long phrases) 3rd harmony/backups & having to mesh perfectly with T.B Schmit in so many Eagles tunes... final verse of "Last Resort" is one of the best examples to see this. I watched him damn near rip a vocal chord (crack) performing Heartache in cold dry air at the Calgary Saddledome in the '90's during HFO tour. The opening act couldn't make it so the Eagles played a full 4 hour concert with 2 encores. Can you believe it? They took a 10 minute break halfway through, and Frey was back on stage singing his lungs out again. Eagles to-a-man are a hard hard working group of musicians, lights out, period.

My 55 yr old son, wife and two grown daughters saw the Eagles in New Orleans. They are one of a kind band. In my youth I loved the Eagles. Now that I am 75, I still love the Eagles. Amazing group of guys!

I will always miss Glenn Frey.

Glen was such a gentleman and a real talent,R.I.P mate.

And Bernie Leadon, he is so under appreciated and legendary musician, people have no idea how creative and skillful he is, he is responsible for some of the greatest string works in the bands repertoire

I cried when he passed. Should have been better Medical Care. I turned out to be in a suit and tie after starting in a denim/shirt and Levi's funnily enough. Have played Eagles songs since the 70s. Great voice and saw hem every time they came Downunder. Love the guy.

he's responsible for the two of the three best selling albums of all time; very cool dude

The more I hear from Glenn Frey the more I like him. He's a real man. I dig him. I just bought "The allnighter" slick 80's stuff but a good album. 'Lovers moon' is a gorgeous ballad.

Such a beautiful man , humble intelligent , handsome r as ever smooth sensuous voice and yes even more sexier miss you Glenn Frey RIP beautiful man God bless your family 🙏❤️🇦🇺🌹💖💕

Thanx for all the tunes Glenn,,,,,,,,,Glad I got to see the Eagles a few times......RIP Eagle...

Great interview. What's sad is Glenn never got to release another album after After Hours which he wanted to do and talked about. That would have been amazing. What a legend and gone too soon. RIP.

Rest in peace Glenn Frey. Your music was a very big part of my life and I am so grateful!

Look at all the haters, lol. Glenn is an institution in rock n roll. His voice and writing is all over some of the greatest hits ever. If I had to go to the bank with someone it would be Glenn, laughing all the way!

Without Henley and Frey, the Eagles don't exist. Grow up folks...jeeeez. Frey acts like an adult and not a punk rocker. That's the problem...so many people have no clue that you don't just get up one day and become the Eagles. It takes work and adult thoughtful behavior to keep it going.

I used to watch "Wise Guy" on TV (TV episodes) back in early 90's starring Ken Wahl (Italian-American) Where Glenn Frey was a supporting actor. Glenn Frey went solo for a while after Eagles had a break. He wrote few good songs like "heat is on" Beverly Hills Cop Soundtrack. He also wrote some love songs like "lover's Moon" and "The One You Love".

Pablito Ponce After the breakup of the Eagles in 1980, Frey embarked on a successful solo career. He released his debut album, No Fun Aloud in 1982 and went on to record Top 40 hits "The One You Love", "Smuggler's Blues", "Sexy Girl", "The Heat Is On", "You Belong to the City", "True Love", "Soul Searchin'", and "Livin' Right".

I just love all these people who hate Glenn so much but spend SO much time looking him up and watching him. If I hated someone as much as you people seem to I wouldn't waste one second of my day looking them up and watching them. The funny thing is it really doesn't matter what you say about him because he is laughing all the way to the bank. And there are thousands of people who are still willing and happy to pay hundreds and even thousands of dollars to see them play. WITHOUT FELDER !!

Great interview - Glen Frey is such a great musician and "feel good" singers.

All of this talk about what happened inside the band and the interpersonal relationships are interesting but in the end means little to nothing next to those songs. It's the songs that have made this band one of the greatest of all time. The songs are bigger than the individual members or even the band itself. None of us were there during all of the goings on so none of us know anything. It's all just conjecture. Let's turned down the gossip and turn up the volume on the songs and...enjoy!

He is not anymore among us, Eagles gave us lots of joy and fun. I regret had made judgments about Glenn. He was what he wanted to be. RIP Glenn Frey

What a wonderful musician and singer he was. What a perfect fit for the Eagles band. But what a total Ass-Hat he was as well. One of the biggest egos in musical history. He certainly broke up the Eagles almost single handedly (Don Henley did his share as well). I find it mildly interesting that since his passing, the world has decided to proclaim what a jewel of a guy he was. He was a jerk of epic proportions at times. But who really cares? It's the wealth of music he, and the Eagles, left behind that matters in the big picture, not a childish immaturity and nasty spirit recognized industry wide for his impossible-to-work-with attitude. RIP indeed. I suspect that heaven is full of great players being brow beat by old Glenn as we speak. There have certainly been a bunch of them headed up the "Stairway to Heaven" in 2016.

Glenn made gossip fun in little Sheffield, Alabama during his 5 year stretch of recording here from 1981 to 1987!

@skating83 I agree with that statement. People always give Eddie Van Halen credit on everything, regardless of whether he wrote lyrics or not, but Don Felder doesn't deserve it? Lyrics are hard, but coming up with good music can be just as hard. Mozart's operas were written by others, but the music he put to them is some of the greatest music ever written. I love Frank Sinatra, but guys like Nelson Riddle or Count Basie put as much gold in his recordings as he did.

This dude was seriously talented, had it not been for him you would have never heard of Randy Meisner or Don Felder, it takes more than talent to become super successful and famous, the Eagles were as big as the Beatles and Led Zep.

couldn't agree more. Still love the music though.

Glenn, Don would you PLEASE forgive Felder and let him back in the band?. Felder does amazing charity work, is a father, husband, and most of all an Eagle!

It seems to be a popular thing to "slam" or speak in disparaging terms about leaders of pop bands, as people do of Glen Frey or Eagles & Mike Love of The Beach Boys...And, it seems to me that when Glen observes that The Eagles are WAY bigger than any one guy in the group is. He says: "In this second incarnation of The Eagles, it's been pretty smooth sailin'!". I find Frey to be a reasonably-down-to-earth guy myself. But, fact is, I've got "No ax to grind"! We should all live and be well!

Glenn is great always will be
