    Happy 34th to "No Fun Aloud"!!! I love this album so much too and like AG so glad it's on Spotify since I can't listen to my parents cassette tape anymore. LOL It's such a great album. I remember my Mom playing her keyboard along with "The One You Love", and us teasing my Dad he was trying to style his hair off of Glenn's on the cover back in the 80s. LOL Also love "I Volunteer" and that song is on my playlist for my new novel I'm working on (it's the one I posted about before that has a ton of Eagles songs on it and this is the Glenn solo song I mentioned) as it fits so much with the story I'm creating from my main male character's POV.

    Too funny about your dad's hair, Amanda! lol

    Count me among those who adore "I Volunteer." Such vulnerability and passion in the vocal, and a great melody.

    I love Cook Jerk. He introduces his band as "The Cool Jerks" and says they named themselves. Certainly a cool band and they have good rapport with Glenn.
    Can these files be downloaded & separated into tracks?

    Right click the downloaded file, select the open option.

    If you haven't got a program that will open the zip file, I can recommend Peazip.
    Search and download Peazip. It's free.
    Peazip
    will open the download as a folder of mp3 files.

    If I open the link (in Firefox) and then right-click on the play bar, I'm given the option to "Save Audio as..." and then I save as type "mp3 format sound". This saves it as a single .mp3 file. I haven't tried to split it into tracks.

    Just listened to it on spotify. It's a good collection of songs, with a good amount of variation. The 80s is sneaking into the production, but it shows that if they had wanted to make an 80s Eagles album, they most certainly could have.

    Jack Tempchin wrote this on his facebook, an imo, it's well-said.
    Glenn Frey released solo LP 'No Fun Aloud' on this date in 1982. As his first solo effort, it exemplified Glenn's ability to forge his own path after leaving an iconic band. Instead of repeating the Eagles country-rock sound, he reverted to his Detroit roots, creating his own blend of rock, pop and soul. I co-wrote 6 of the 10 songs, including both top 40 singles, "The One You Love" and "I Found Somebody". He soul lives on in his songs.

    Happy 35th Birthday to Glenn's very first solo album, No Fun Aloud.

    Brothers for life. RIP Glenn

    I'm not sure I believe in fate, but I know that crossing paths with Glenn Lewis Frey in 1970 changed my life forever, and it eventually had an impact on the lives of millions of other people all over the planet. It will be very strange going forward in a world without him in it. But, I will be grateful, every day, that he was in my life. Rest in peace, my brother. You did what you set out to do, and then some." -Don Henley

    This is possibly my favorite Glenn solo album. My favorite songs are I Found Somebody and That Girl. The two weak songs are Partytown (although it's not a bad song; I prefer Sea Cruise as an upbeat fun number) and Don't Give Up, which I find somewhat annoying. I like everything else. Overall, a very good debut album.

    Happy birthday, No Fun Aloud!

    Happy 35th No Fun Aloud!
