Here's another list of top-selling artists in the US. ...
I can't tell if it's true, but it seems plausible to me. Although the poster is specific about when he met Don and Glenn, the actual invitation could have been several years earlier. I believe Bernie...
A recent Henry Diltz attracted some interesting comments about Eagles and Gram Parsons. To summarise, they asked Gram to join but he turned them down.
Who did the photographs for the RS "Hell Is for Heroes" profile (that's the 1979 Charles M Young piece)? It sounded like Young did plenty of late night partying with Don and Glenn while he was...
This is a part of a "Where are they now" for 70s rock bands. Yes, by choosing the first and last line-ups, a former member is ignored, but then they also fail to mention Peter Green for Fleetwood...
Some real news, with a statement from Henley.
"Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975" has been included in the Library of Congress’ National Recording Registry:...
My take was that Mr Koplik has been reading the same news items as us but that he has some personal knowledge of the people concerned (from when they played in venues within his remit) which makes...
I suspect the author has that wrong. I've certainly heard Jack Tempchin describe it as a "new" song when Glenn first heard it when Glenn's band was 8 days old. The other thing I think he gets wrong...
You can sometimes find it on the liner notes. Soda has transcribed the line notes for all of the Eagles albums and all of Glenn Frey's, which makes those easy to find.
Glenn:
No Fun Aloud (1982):...
After that feat, can you work out when Azoff was manager for individuals as well as the band?
As far as I can tell, he has been manager for Don Henley throughout.
He stopped managing Glenn some...
This is a really good article about the Eagles in Florida in the 70s. It includes relatively specific detail about the writing and recording of the song, Hotel California.
...
The lyrics manuscript for Hotel California is up for auction at Sotheby's on Dec 10th.

Funny you should say that because http://www.thenational.ae/arts-life/music/album-review-kings-of-leon-return-to-their-roots-in-walls turned up today and the review is full of Eagles references.
One thing I like about Phil Kenzie is that he's enthusiastic about his time playing with the Eagles. In one interview, he says that was his best touring experience. When I hear his stories about some...
It looks like one leg of The Long Run Tour ended on March 7, 1980 and the next started on June 14, 1980 at Yale, followed by the Giants Stadium on 15th June. That must be when Phil Kenzie joined.
Maybe, but they've included duets and bands featuring the artist, so I think as the "Mike" in the band name, it should count. It's not as if the solo artists don't have bands backing them.
Here's some more. My guess is that what he thought was the Eagles site was a fan site.

I have found a lot of interviews with Phil Kenzie where he talks about the Long Run tour. I've posted some links to youtube audio interviews in the supporting musicians threads, but as this is text,...
Very few hit singles are instrumentals, so it makes sense that a group with multiple lead singers is more likely to have members who have "solo" hits.
In the Billboard list, the Genesis entry...
Billboard has a list of groups where two or more of the members have had top-40 hits.

There's a passing reference to the band in this article about a couple of record business people who are raising funds to mount orchestral extravaganzas based on the music of classic rock bands. I...
One final link. It's on a Beatles-related blog and although it's ostensibly about Glenn, it has stories about other Eagles, especially Randy and Joe.

Back in January there were a few mean-spirited articles about the Eagles. I've just read a well-written blog in thatexplains why one of these was wrong in nearly every aspect, so I'll share.

This is Paul Rodgers talking about Joe Walsh:

Yeah, it was obviously copied from somewhere - I wouldn't expect Don to carry around that level of detail on the effects of a drug. I think he'd have been better keeping it brief and just written...
