The parts of the article relating to Glenn:
"It’s fitting that [Karla Bonoff] a woman who wrote hits for others got her biggest hit with someone else’s song. That number was 'Personally,' which Paul Kelly wrote. R&B singer Jackie Moore had cut it in 1978, but it barely made a dent in the charts. Moore’s single wound up in the hands of Glenn Frey, of the Eagles, who happened to be friends with Bonoff.
'He was a great collector of obscure R&B songs, and he played that for me one night at his house,' Bonoff said in a phone call last week. 'I was like, wow, what a cool tune. Somebody should make a hit out of that.' He said, 'You know, I was thinking I should send that to Bonnie Raitt.' I was like, 'No! Don’t send that to Bonnie Raitt!'

Her good friend Frey died in 2016, but his death was only one of several in recent years among Bonoff’s peer group in the Southern California music scene that blew up in the 1970s. Two of her bandmates from a before-its-time outfit of folk-rockers called Bryndle. Kenny Edwards, who had founded The Stone Poneys with Ronstadt, then joined Bryndle, died in 2010. Andrew Gold died the next year. Singer, songwriter and producer Wendy Waldman remains active in the music business.
Edwards produced Bonoff’s first three albums. Frey was among the first people she met when she was exploring the folk rock scene of Los Angeles, which centered on The Troubadour.
'Unfortunately at this point, when you get to this age, that’s what starts to happen,' said Bonoff, 66. 'It’s hard, because it doesn’t feel like that much time has passed. We are losing people, a lot of people. It’s sad, but you try to carry on.
'To lose these guys in their 60s, it’s really a bummer. They had a lot more music in them.'

'I started out with my sister, writing, and we had a duo, sort of playing Joni Mitchell-type stuff that we were writing. We started doing those Monday nights at The Troubadour, which were open mic nights. That’s how we started meeting all these other people — Kenny Edwards and Wendy Waldman and Glenn and JD Souther. Everybody was drawn to the same couple of places where you could get up and perform.'"
The rest is about her own work.
