Glenn Frey Died today!

[BulldogBacker]

...and wrote some of the greatest country/rock songs in the history of music. He and Don Henley were the backup band to the sweetest senorita Tucson ever put out, Linda Ronstadt, and she helped Glenn and Don choose the musicians and and band members who made up the Eagles! Great loss!

Frey also played in studio with Bob Seger at the age of 19.

The Eagles are great but place quite a few ahead

The Who
The Doors
Pink Floyd
Stones
Beatles
The Police
Grand Funk

Best band of all time. No others close. Music trancended time.

Sorry but I don't believe in that analogy.....saying one band from the greatest music era is the best....well it's like asking which one is greater The Beatles or the Rolling Stones.....apples and oranges. But yes I do remember much further back than "Hotel California". I actually remember them on "The King Biscuit Flour hour" radio show and Jackson Browne was a regular sitting in. Lets just say 2016 @@@@ in a really bad way. I don't think the greats really knew how much their music transcended so many people's lives........

I wasn't a big fan of his solo stuff. Overplayed. The Heat is on, You Belong to the City, Smuggler's Blues....meh.

But the greatest vocal with the Eagles was "Tequila Sunrise"....with "Lyin' Eyes", "Take It Easy", and "Peaceful, Easy Feeling"...a close 2nd, 3rd and 4th, respectively.

I'd switch your 1st and 2nd- but agree for the most part.
