Used To Be In The Eagles

Glenn Frey dead at 67

Mojo Nixon mildly cheered up but maintains it should have been the other one.

I liked a handful of Eagles songs, especially after Joe Walsh joined the band. I had a concert ticket for their 1994 tour, but it got cancelled due to Frey being ill. I did see them in concert when they finally resumed the tour in 1995.

I didn’t care much for Frey’s solo work – what I heard of it, anyway – but I always did like this song…

 

Happy New Year!

They say nothing changes on New Year’s Day. But this past year has me reeling. Remember when Bill Cosby was the family man and America’s Dad, and Steely Dan were the shady freaks singing about Bad Things instead of grocery store Muzak?
