Very cool! Love the polo shirt (!), the 12-string guitar and the old school guitar strap.

Thanks BJB for the pics and love them too!!! :D
Gorgeous photos, all of the above! As usual, Glenn is :smokin:
Thanks everyone!
Wow - he is sooooo sexy in those! Thanks bf.
I got an email alert with the title "Don Henley of the Eagles plays at a golf tournament" - I would love to see that but when I looked - obviously it was Glenn playing in the Jimmy Buffett golf tournament in Aspen in September 1984 - I've never seen this picture of Glenn before and he looks really cute in it and a little like Scott Bakula !! I'm still not sure if it is Glenn and not Scott :grin:

Great find, L101! Poor Scott never looked so good, IMHO!
Great find, L101! Great pic!
That is a great pic L101!!! :D I see him looking like Scott too there. LOL
He doesn't look like Glenn to me but I accept the opinion of the Glenn experts.
I think this is from roughly the same time (give or take a year) and it looks like it could be the same man to me:

I just wanted an excuse to post a picture.
I think it's the chin throwing me off but that's probably due to the angle. It's definitely not Don Henley! That's a very nice picture of Glenn, btw, no need for an excuse to post it, UtW.:-) (I think of the 80s+ era as "Handsome Glenn" and the 70s era as "Hot Glenn").
My favourite is probably around 1979/80 when I think either label would fit:

Thanks for the golf picture, L101. I've never seen it before either, but, to me, it is very much 80's Glenn - extremely handsome.
I've seen it before, but it's been a long time. Great to see it again! Thanks for posting, L101!
Love those!

This picture was shot during the opening night of the legendary Boddy's Music Inn in Amsterdam. There to open the club, which had live music every night, were three bands; the bluegrass group Country Gazette, who first came over as a part of the Flying Burrito Brothers, but later garnered their own large following of loyal fans in Northern Europe and included Byron Berline, Kenny Wertz, Alan Munde and Roger Bush.
Also playing were the Canadian band the Stampeders. They were touring Europe and staying in Hotel Wiechmann, as were most of the touring musicians when they hit Amsterdam in those years. The band included Rich Dodson, Kim BerIy and Ronnie King, and their single "Sweet City Woman" was enjoying success in Europe during that time. To the delight of the Dutch audience, it turned out that Ronnie actually had a Dutch background, and was pleased to practice his Dutch at the club that night.
Rounding out the night's line-up were the Eagles, who were on their first European tour. The Eagles at that time included Glen Frey, Don Henley, Randy Meisner and Bernie Leadon, who has the auspicious honor of having been a member of the Flying Burrito Brothers, which was the very first band to stay with the Boddy's at Hotel Wiechmann.
All of the bands did some of their own material that night, but they (obviously you can see that in this picture) all jammed together, as well. Too bad recorders were not as ubiquitous then as they are now.
Thank you GoranV, for the pictures and the info. Do you know where the billboard is located? That's a cool depiction of Glenn with Eagles wings.
You're welcome.
The Billboard was on Champaign, IL. It was posted on several billboards in town the day Glenn Frey passed away. Dan Wild is the ilustrator.
Thanks so much GoranV for sharing the billboard!!! :D I haven't seen that before either.
I thought the same the first time I saw it. Just fabulous. Glad you enjoy.
Here it is another pic I haven't seen before. Glenn and Don with a WFUV Public Radio broadcaster, Dennis Elsas, in 1973.

Wow-- I haven't seen that before either, GV. Thanks for posting these.
Wow - never saw those pictures either. Glenn looks so young in that last one and he has that belt on. TY.
He is gorgeous there!
FP -I love that too. I originally saw it posted on a Eagles fan FB Page last year after RS came out with the tribute to David Bowie. When people were complaining that RS had not done the same for Glenn it turned up on the FB Page. If I remember right, there was some kind of problem - I guess with RS and legal issues, and the post was removed.
NKIT - I'm sorry but I just realised where it was from. I thought it was better that I deleted it. For those who missed it it was a mocked up RS cover paying tribute to Glenn, which they never did. This is the photo anyway.

FP -No problem. When I first saw it I thought is was real too. Too bad RS did not do something like that instead of just reprinting old interviews. I guess we are lucky we got what we did from RS.
I guess so, but I liked the mock-up cover better.
Soda - I did too. I wish they had done an issued like that.
Whoa! I've seen a whole series of photos from this photoshoot, but not THAT one! Of course, I had to zoom in and have those eyes looking back at me. Beautiful! Let's take a break from the quarreling to just sigh and remember why we're here!
Thanks, Goran! You made my day!
AMAZING PICTURE..that hair..OMG!
Oh my my!!!! LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW - OMG - I have never seen this picture before either. :faint:
I have seen a lot of pics from this HC shoot, but not this one. Thank You ! How do you find these pics you have been posting?
WOW!!! Gorgeous!! :smitten:
