Glenn Frey

Vocals, Guitar, Slide Guitar, Clavinet, Harmonium, Keyboards


Born on November 6, 1948 in Detroit, Michigan

Original member of the Eagles

Best work: Tequila Sunrise
Glenn is my favorite current Eagles member, because I like the country side of the Eagles and Glenn definitely represents that. I also think he has the best voice. One of my all-time favorite Eagles songs is Tequila Sunrise, and the smoothness and clarity in Glenn's vocals just blows me away everytime. His is the voice I strive to achieve. Also, as evidenced by Already Gone and several songs on The Long Run, Glenn plays a mean guitar, and being a guitarist I obviously admire that quality. Glenn, keep writing those country songs for me, 'cause you do it so well. You rule!
Here's a quote from Glenn back in 1975, showing a bit of an attitude about the band:

"I mean we got the songs. We got the best country guitarist in Bernie Leadon, and the best rock'n'roll player in the world in Felder, and the best high-singin' bass player, and the best singin' drummer and I know I'm the grease and we are going. I know we're on, there's nobody better. And that's all I know."
