Eagles- One of These Nights- the late Glenn Frey, Randy Meisner

Driving halfway across America  not long after the June 1975 release of "One of These Nights"  by The Eagles is when I truly realized just how massively popular this band had become. Original Eagles singer/bass player Randy Meisner, now passed, and the late Eagles co-founder singer/guitarist Glenn Frey joined me here In the Studio in a classic rock interview,precious now with their passing, about the album which single-handedly took country and western music from the bunkhouse to Broadway.

The Eagles- the late Glenn Frey & Randy Meisner

Down through the history of mankind, first flights such as The Eagles are revered: the Montgolfier brothers in Paris in 1783 with their hot air balloon; the Wright brothers in 1903 with powered flight, Apollo 11 landing on the Moon...In June 1972 when the debut album by a Southern California-based band The Eagles was quietly released, it had none of the anticipated date-with-destiny public spectacle shared by all of the aforementioned events. But history proved that the original quartet's first flight would quickly allow a career to take wing that would soon soar, resulting in The Eagles becoming the most popular American band ever. Original member Randy Meisner & co-founder the late Glenn Frey are with me In the Studio for the story on the 50th anniversary of The Eagles.
