Glenn Frey in the Press - Retro Edition!

[Troubadour]

Heh, I loved reading Glenn's responses. I like the bit about involving an 'innocent bystander'!

[Ive always been a dreamer]

I love reading Glenn's responses in that interview. What I think would be a hoot is if someone could do the same interview with him today to see what he would have to say ... or to see what his reaction today would be to some of the responses he gave in 1985.

[GlennLover]

It's always been one of my favourites of Glenn articles.

[Koala]

Thanks for that , I love read the old articles!

[Glennsallnighter]

Yeah! I love that article too and as Dreamer suggested I'd love to see how his responses have changed over the intervening 25 years. Like Lou, I love the 'Innocent Bystander' comment.

I also think one of my favourite all time Glenn quotes is
'I'm too busy living to think about dying' (Thats after the cheeseburger comment in a different interview ). I've borrowed the quote myself on occasion.

I love the praise he gives Don for BoS and the album.

[Freypower]

Also did you notice that he named Don Felder as one of his favourite guitarists (along with Joe)? He always went out of his way to be generous to Felder, at least when he made public comments. I think it's important to remember that when you consider some of the stuff Felder said about him.

Check this out! Steve Goddard posted some clips from an interview he did with Glenn back in 1983 or thereabouts - good stuff, although Glenn's voice sounds a little funny!

ETA: I can't get the second one to play. Anyone else having better luck?

[GlennLover]

Yes, I got it to play. Nothing new. It's interesting that his favorite Eagles' songs haven't changed:

One of These Nights
I Can't Tell You Why
Take It To The Limit

Pretty well everything else I have heard before.

[sodascouts]

Thanks, it's working for me now, too.

I agree with him on TITTL! It's not just my favorite Eagles song, it's one of my favorite songs of any band.

I wonder what his favorite song is that he sings lead on?

ETA: Oh wait, I forgot I have a list of his faves on GlennFreyOnline! That site is so big even I can't remember everything I put on it. Anyway, here it is:

One of These Nights, I Can't Tell You Why, Take It Easy, Tequila Sunrise, Desperado, Best Of My Love, Take It To The Limit, Hotel California, New Kid In Town, Life In The Fast Lane, and Wasted Time.
