I know most of you are metal heads...including myself but what a shame about the passing of Glenn Frey. I grew up around the corner from him when I was real young. Such a talented guitars, singer and song writer, taken too early. I think I will add "Smugglers Blues" and "Life in the Fastlane" to my next set in honor of Glenn.

Yes another good musician gone,first Lemmy then Bowie and now Frey.

Yeah i'm a metal head but not only. Actually I'm playing in a country band covering Brad Paisley, Keith Urban, Travis Tritt... and The Eagles of course ! their vocals were so brillants, even live. And Glenn Frey was a real part of it... lyin'eyes, Take it easy... those are great songs that i love singing on a stage and I have to work a lot to reproduce Glenn's vocals (I do my best,but...)
Really sad to learn his death... Killmister, Bowie, Glenn Frey : 2016 is a tough year

Another musical loss for sure... one thing comes to mind for me concerning the Eagles (and Glenn of course) is watching a documentary a few years back (Well, now, more like a decade back
When they were on tour, they *still* rehearsed every day, doing vocal harmony practices, etc. After so many years, they were still working on keeping it consistent, making it better.
