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.

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!

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.
