And yet another--RIP Glen Frey

[Ovation]

What a start to the year. Yikes.:E

My wife is especially sad about Glenn Frey (the Eagles are her all-time favourite band). I remember my parents mourning musical greats of their generation and it seemed it would be a long time before I experienced the same kind of thing--I guess a long time has passed.

I just found out. They just keep piling on , don't they?

Then you might consider buying this Blu-ray for her if you don't have it already. The highlight for me is Disc 3 which is a beautifully restored recording of The Eagles in concert in 1977. The first two discs are documentaries about the band. Unfortunately Glenn doesn't come across as a particularly nice person, which doesn't worry me because his body of work is more important.

I didn't know that Bill.

In contrast, our recently departed friend David Bowie was allegedly a damn fine fellow.
