Favourite Glenn Frey Songs
Didn't see a posting for this topic, so I thought I would go and create one myself. All of us have our own favourite Glenn songs, and it would be interesting to see what some of the consensus on here is regarding his best songs. Here's my own personal opinions...
Solo:
1. You Belong to the City
2. The Heat is On
3. Smuggler's Blues
4. Strange Weather
5. Wild Mountain Thyme
Within the Eagles:
1. Tequila Sunrise
2. New Kid in Town
3. Already Gone
4. Heartache Tonight
5. Peaceful, Easy Feeling
Re: Favourite Glenn Frey Songs
I could have sworn we had an old topic on this. For me there are too many but I will try:
Eagles:
New Kid In Town
Lyin' Eyes
Tequila Sunrise
Heartache Tonight
Take It Easy
This is a very conservative list which doesn't include the songs from LROOE which I love, because I wasn't sure which to choose, though the 'eerly prescient' (to quote Don Henley) It's Your World Now would be up there.
Solo:
Part Of Me, Part Of You
Smuggler's Blues
River Of Dreams
You Belong To The City
After Hours
I adore WMT. However I wouldn't list it in the top 5, though it would be close.

Re: Favourite Glenn Frey Songs
Surely I can't be the only one who adores "True Love"!
I didn't know Glenn covered "Wild Mountain Thyme"; must check that out.
Re: Favourite Glenn Frey Songs
Glenn has expressed a reluctance to pick out favourites from his solo career but on other occasions he's named The One You Love, Smugglers Blues and the aforementioned True Love. Wild Mountain Thyme is definitely one of my favourites.
solo:
Wild Mountain Thyme
Lovers Moon
After Hours
River Of Dreams
The Heat Is On
Eagles:
Outlaw Man
New Kid In Town
Heartache Tonight
You Are Not Alone
It's Your World Now
I love King Of Hollywood too but I suppose that would only qualify for a 'dual or group lead vocal' catagory :grooving:

There's was another one about Glenn's best vocal, but it doesn't seem to be quite the same topic. For those who posted back then, it would be interesting to see if the list has changed.
