    Default Randy at the Troubadour

    This is a little tidbit from Artie Wayne's memories of his days at the Troubadour. I didn't include it in Randy's press thread b/c it was not much but it did reference Glenn. I thought it offered a small glimpse into their personalities. AFAIK, it hasn't been posted already.

    It was also on a Monday night when Glenn Frye and Randy Meisner of the Eagles wrestled me to the ground, took my highly polished Frye boots with "sissified" custom built platform heels, and threw them onto Santa Monica Boulevard as a joke.
    I note he spelled "Frye" instead of Frey and referred to the boots as "Frye" as well.

    I knew I'd seen something similar before. There was also something about The Hollies wanting to record "Witchy Woman".

    The Hollies probably never put it out back in the day, but they actually did record "Witchy Woman" and it finally surfaced a few years back on a multi-disc collection of lps and rarities. They do a respectable job with it, but it's a far cry from the Eagles' version.

    Funny story, although I feel for the guy if he lost his neat boots, lol.

    Interesting article, UTW. I didn't know anyone covered PEF back then. And I'm trying to imagine the Hollies doing WW. That might be something to check out.
