Back in November, news came out Frey faced major surgery after a recurrence of previous intestinal issues. Frey had a portion of his intestine removed in 1990. He was also forced to take a break from the Eagles' "Hell Freezes Over" reunion tour in 1994 because of diverticulitis.

The death of Frey has been confirmed on the Eagles website. A statement says: "It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce the passing of our comrade, Eagles founder, Glenn Frey, in New York City on Monday, January 18th, 2016. Glenn fought a courageous battle for the past several weeks but, sadly, succumbed to complications from Rheumatoid Arthritis, Acute Ulcerative Colitis and Pneumonia."

"The Frey family would like to thank everyone who joined Glenn to fight this fight and hoped and prayed for his recovery. Words can neither describe our sorrow, nor our love and respect for all that he has given to us, his family, the music community & millions of fans worldwide."
May He Rest In Peace.

Sadly most of his videos that are unauthorized are blocked on youtube. I always loved the Sexy Girl video, well because it had a sexy girl and then a young Howie Long in the end.

Rest In Peace

Posted by the Eagles in the statement..

"It's Your World Now," a Frey co-written track from their Long Road Out of Eden. "But first a kiss, one glass of wine / Just one more dance while there's still time / My one last wish: someday, you'll see /How hard I tried and how much you meant to me."

This is starting to hurt.
There's going to be a heartache tonight but I still have a peaceful easy feeling.
Some of the best songs ever will live on and on.

"I got sick of my job, sick of my wife
Sick of my future and sick of my life
I packed up my car and got some gas
And told everybody they can kiss my ass

I'm goin' to Partytown"!:al

RIP Glenn, thanks for that great tune.
