    This is Glenn's obit in the Miami Herald; it contains a clip of a Pepsi commercial that he and Don Johnson did back in the mid-80s:

    OT: weirdly, the obit is dated January 17, which would make the obit writer a psychic.

    I hope this is the correct forum. Please move if it isn't.

    The result of Rolling Stone's poll of 'best' tracks:

    http://www.rollingstone.com/music/li...songs-20160127

    While I am happy with the winner, I am not happy that once more, the Lebowski stuff was trotted out, and not once is Glenn's actual performance in any of these songs discussed. Not once.

    I'm glad the "winner" was New Kid In Town and not Take It Easy, because they actually co-wrote it (I don't consider Glenn's one line in TIE really co-writing, and I don't think Glenn did either) and it's a better song IMO. Take It Easy would have been a more obvious choice.

    TIE was my choice, but I don't mind that it didn't win.

    While Glenn's credits for the lyrics are only those two lines, I think TIE showcases his talents as an arranger. As much as I love JB, his version of the song doesn't touch Glenn's. JB himself has talked about Glenn's arrangement and the big Eagles harmonies on the song.

    I think I'll have to correct part of my statement. I have nothing against Take It Easy and people voting for it, especially when they know other Eagles/Glenn songs too but still prefer TIE. I think I was thinking of casual fans who only know HC and TIE and therefore vote for TIE as the best Glenn song. Not that NKIT is an obscure song, but perhaps TIE is a more obvious choice for people who don't know much about Eagles/Glenn. You know, it's a bit like asking what's the greatest Procol Harum song from people who only know A Whiter Shade Of Pale. That's what I was afraid of.

    Having said that, I may have been wrong. Most of the people who voted probably know a lot about the Eagles. When I think about it now, I can't see tons of casual fans giving their vote.
