It's obvious that this album is not for people who believe he should only do Eagles type songs; in my opinion that is their loss.

That's too bad that she hates it as Glenn is so enthusiastic about singing this music & obviously really enjoys doing so. :-(

I totally agree FP. While this album is different from Eagles and his past solo material IMO it is a wonderful example of Glenn expanding his musical horizons.
Re: Glenn on Jimmy Kimmel tonight May 9th
I love it! Even if you don't care for this type of music it is worthwhile to listen just to hear how amazing Glenn's voice is! You can really appreciate his versatility. I keep playing ot over & over again! :sigh:

I think you're right...he is very talented and can do so much more..obviously...I didn't think there were any Glenn fans out there that wouldn't like this new stuff..or at least give it a chance.

Re: Glenn on Jimmy Kimmel tonight May 9th
There are people who can't stand this kind of music and even Glenn's voice isn't going to salvage it for them. Sounds like your friend fits into that category. Her loss!

Maybe it was just the performance. I'll admit that even though I liked the CD, I've not been excited about the televised performances for it. I do consider myself a big Glenn fan, but it's more for his music than the visual, especially with this album.
I'm sure I'll enjoy the live show regardless, but even so, I'll be glad when he can bring back the jeans. JMO, of course. :)

So far, I've seen three distinct reactions to this album:
1. Absolutely love it.
2. Absolutely despise it.
3. It's not my kind of music, but it's really good for what it is.
I fall into the third category. There doesn't seem to be much middle ground on the opinions. I'm sure Glenn expected a number of people to hate it, but he's been around long enough to have a pretty thick skin. I'll bet he's pleased by the number of people in Categories 1 and 3 though.
Re: Glenn on Jimmy Kimmel tonight May 9th
Yeah, those are the reactions I've seen as well.
As far as the wardrobe choices, I figured he'd wear a suit, but I was hoping for snazzy suits like he wore in the video teaser rather than the traditional business suit that reminds me of my dad. Ah well, it's the voice that counts!
