Another very sad day in Rock´N Roll:
Glenn Lewis Frey (November 6, 1948 – January 18, 2016) was an American musician, singer,
songwriter, producer and actor, best known as a founding member of the Eagles. Frey played guitar with Eagles as well as piano and keyboards and sang lead vocals on many Eagles hits such as "Take It Easy", "Peaceful Easy Feeling", "Tequila Sunrise", "Already Gone", "Lyin' Eyes", "New Kid in Town", and "Heartache Tonight".
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".
As a member of Eagles, Frey won six Grammy Awards, and five American Music Awards. The Eagles have sold over 120 million albums worldwide and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
in 1998, the first year they were nominated. As a solo artist and with
Eagles combined, Frey has released 24 Top 40 singles on the Billboard Hot 100.
Glenn fought a courageous battle for the past several weeks but, sadly,
succumbed to complications from Rheumatoid Arthritis, Acute Ulcerative
Colitis and Pneumonia.
Another loss this year. I love the music of the Eagles and will always remember him. Thank you for the music and for your performances.
