Nah, we quite often get duplicated threads. *diablo*

With the sad demise recently of rock and pop stars, I wonder who'll be next? My money's on Brian Wilson. The old smack head should've croaked years ago.

Bowie on vocals, Frey on guitar, Lemmy on bass, and Griffin on drums. Looks like there's a party going on somewhere right now.

Great comment Steve, but b*****r me, the soundtrack of my youth is checking out one at a time. I'm beginning to realise I may only have about 10 years left. I'm intending to make the most of it!!!

Certainly makes you think - a band like that - and so recent too!

RIP all of them

The Eagles made some great stuff, Hotel California really rocked.

There are many timeless classics by the Eagles . Some would consider many as too mellow but few other bands can conjour up blue skies and summer sun in such a vivid way with me. They were also masters of well crafted songs with tight vocal harmonies. Saw them last year in Manchester and thought they sounded tired with Joe Walsh holding the show together. Glad we went now though as I don't think that Henley will carry on with the band. Another chapter closes!

'Carpe Diem'

Eagles are one of my fav bands since. Their "hell freezes over" album really is amazing.

Although you may think differently if you've attended too many hi-fi shows/demonstrations.

This is not the original RIP Glen Frey hommage board.

Fantastic band, and Frey was an essential part of it. Saw them on the 'Long Road Out Of Eden' tour and they were on great form then. One of the slickest gigs I've ever seen, but very genuine and engaging at the same time. Another great loss to the music world.

You mean it's a tribute board?

To be honest I loathed Hell Freezes Over.

When I'm suffering from chronic arthritis and incontinence and in an old age home with wicked nurses then perhaps I'd listen to Hotel California unplugged or Layla unplugged - 'you've got me on my knees Layla' - indeed.

Sad loss. 69 is to young an age to die.

Sad loss. 69 is to young an age to die.

Though I am sure Mr Frey would have been happy to have made it to that age.

Turns out he was 67, my bad. Much to young to die.
