Press and Discussion about Don's new album(s) in progress

[AmarilloByMorning]

My universe would implode. You'd see me on the Travel Channel's Top Ten Unexplained that they air every Halloween: Girl Spontaneously Combusts After Don Henley Pays Tribute to Fellow Texan George Strait. And if I ever hear him sing Amarillo By Morning, forget it - I'll just keel over.

LOL! I have to admit, I'm EXTREMELY curious as to what songs he would consider covering. If I had to guess, it would be the older stuff like Merle Haggard, George Jones, etc etc. I'm really excited about both albums though!

Well this is very interesting, and I hope he has a big success with these two albums.

However I would argue about him being the most important member of the band. I would consider that accolade to be held jointly by Don and Glenn . I think the band could not function as a unit without the input of BOTH of these guys.

Maybe Glenn could also be persuaded to 'put forth' some new material and release a new album as well. I'm sure he has plenty to work with!

This weeks Country Weekly (Tim McGrew on cover) has a picture of Don and a short article about his country album. I don't remember seeing the picture before but he has on a suit so it is probably an old one.

Thanks for the headsup, AEF. Can you scan the picture and post it in Henley Heaven? I'd love to see it and I'm sure a few others around here wouldn't mind either.

My scanner bite the dust long ago and I never used it enough to want to replace it. Sorry.

Apparently he started recording it a few days ago.

Good to hear it's actually in the making! Thanks!

Good find - glad to hear it's rolling along. So, he'll have country guest stars, eh? Can we count on Trisha Yearwood returning the favor? I also remember him doing duets in the past with Kenny Rogers and Reba McIntyre, both of which sounded great. Maybe even a Dixie Chick. You know, Stevie Nicks has said she considered being a country singer so it might be time for some reciprocity in that quarter as well.

ETA: I wonder if he'd invite any of his old Shiloh buds to make an appearance, especially Bowden?
