Crap. This has been such a bizarre year so far.

I'm glad I'm not famous right now.

Crappy year so far, that's three of my favourites gone in as many weeks.

In all my years I've never seen the like. It has to be more than a hundred sea miles and he brings us up on his tail. That's seamanship, Mr. Pullings. My God, that's seamanship!

I'll be 64 in a month, and mortality is seeming more real all the time.

Very sad news. frown

I've been a Eagles fan since their famous "Greatest Hits (19711975)", and then "Hotel California" and "The Long Run". Glad I got to see them in the mid-90's, before the departure of Felder.

I have vivid memories of hearing a number of songs in '84 while riding in the back of my future bro-in-law's '81 Celica GT hatchback, including this one...



RIP.

My attitude towards the Eagles kinda mirrors that of the Dude wink , but I liked his solo work:

I just saw The Eagles in concert in 2013 but I don't think Frey was in it!

Many great songs from Glenn Frey. I'm not familiar with Dale Griffin.

Sorry to hear of their illness and loss.

^ Good song, I'm glad someone posted something by Mott the Hoople/Dale Griffin, I was clueless as well.
