The Eagles reached success with Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Bassist Timothy B Schmidt, and guitarists Don Felder and Joe Walsh. The Eagles Dabbled in Country music as well as Rock Music and ballads. Glenn Frey went on as a solo artist as well as in acting.
The eagles were a great rock band and I enjoyed their music and was sorry they didn't play as much together anymore.

The title song to their album " Hotel California " remains a requested favorite . Don Felder created the the melody with Joe walsh contributing on the 2 part lead guitar interplay with Don Felder.

Just heard this on the radio. Sad news indeed. I am not fond of 2016 so far. (I will include Lemmy from the end of 2015 in that as well.)

With all these rock icons passing away lately, there must be one heck of a concert gearing up in the hereafter.

I remember when the band broke up and someone said, "Hell would freeze over before they got back together again"

They got back together again in 1994 ... almost forgot how good they were till they started playing all of their old songs on the TV today.

They were different ... no one has copied that sound that I know of.

Now I miss them ... think I'll go over to youtube and have a look around.

So long Glen hope your on the right side of heaven :yep:
