Glenn in the Press/Blogs/etc.

[UndertheWire]

Scraping the barrel a little, but I like to fill in the gaps. This is from an interview with Lou Ann Barton:

RO: Right about that time you got your first break as a solo artist. LAB: I'd recorded some songs and sent demo copies around to a bunch of labels and industry people. Jerry Wexler got really excited about it. He knew everybody, so he sent it around to people like Bette Midler, Linda Ronstadt. Linda liked it and she's the one who suggested Glenn Frey [of the Eagles] to work on it. So he and Wexler co-produced Old Enough.

RO: Frey doesn't seem like a fit for you.
LAB: He was all right, a likable guy. We got along well.

RO: The record didn't do too well and you left Asylum. Looking back, what are your feelings about that first album?
LAB: It was my first album and I didn't know a lot. I did bring Jimmie in to play on it, but in the end it was a little clean-sounding to me.

Good to get any little gem UTW! Thanks for posting it

[GlennLover]

Thanks, UTW! I love to hear any tidbits about the guys.

Hey there..did anyone else get a google alert which said "Whatever happened to Glenn Frey's baby?..I was at a Stevie concert..."..but when I looked further it had been deleted...Wonder what that was all about?????????????

[VAisForEagleLovers]

Yes, I saw that alert on Friday. It was obviously a mistake and deleted.

Just saw a couple tweets that Glenn is at the Kings/Rangers game tonight with James Dolan. Also speculation (mostly snarky) that he'll attend a Knicks press conference tomorrow with Dolan.

I wonder who he's cheering for?

[VAisForEagleLovers]

Apparently they showed him on the Jumbotron while playing a song Henley sings lead on (The Long Run). During a commercial, because there was no Long Run on my TV.

[Freypower]

He has gone back to the US for a week?! I suppose it isn't that far for him to go now he is in New York.

[sodascouts]

Dang! He's quite the globe trotter!

[GlennLover]

If his family wasn't with him on tour, maybe he wanted to go home to be with them, even for a short time.
