..But Linda Ronstadt says she was the one who ‘discovered’
The Eagles. Maybe they both did.

Slightly off topic, but did you know Kenny Rogers could play basketball? Check out the video. He had decent game.

Wow. I’ve never seen this before either. Kenny Rogers & Michael Jordan playing...hoops? Strong jump shot! We miss you, Kenny. RIP. https://t.co/rsVdr87ail— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) March 23, 2020

A good friend of mine had the Eagles play at his high school prom at Pacific Palisades High School in Los Angeles in 1970 or 1971.

I don’t believe in blaming the dead guy for atrocities committed by the living.

He was a good guy. He was doing a show near us, my mom was a big fan, and was very ill. He took a time to meet and greet her personally before the show.

Country and rock were intertwined, free flowing and marvelously creative back then.

I think I read somewhere that before the Eagles were known to anyone, Don Henley, Glenn Frey, and Jackson Browne all lived in the same apartment complex in Southern California....

Can you imagine the those 3 sitting around with buddies, drinking beer, smoking pot and playing tunes, especially if you were just a neighbor who knew all three...

He was one of the very first American astronauts, too, not a lot of people remember that.

and Travis Tritt convinced them to sit back down and talk after they had the rift.

Interesting how these things work out.
