You need to read the cameron crowe eagles article which is on the same site as the Irv Azoff profile that was linked upthread. You'll sing that even louder.

Good blurbs.

first I think it's time I kick a little verse! (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 5 September 2013 17:29 (ten years ago) link

these guys are humanitarian:

Lujack cuts drummer Don Henley short. “Linda Ronstadt.” The name rolls off his lips with lecherous abandon. “She’s probably my favorite chick singer, heh-heh. Say, I remember reading somewhere that the Eagles do the best ‘ooo’s in the business. What do you say to that?”

” ‘ooo’s for bucks, Larry, that’s our motto.” Frey flashes a sly grin. “The only difference between boring and laid back is a million dollars.”

Lujack chortles mirthlessly. “You rock & rollers are all alike, aren’t you? Hey, is it true you guys want to sound like Al Green? What’s the matter, you tired of being cowboys?”

“That’s actually very true,” Henley deadpans. “We almost called this record Black in the Saddle….”

Yeah that's from the article I was talkin about. Later on there's some thoughtful Glenn gems.

If you had a machine that could pop out a generic 'meaningful' 70s Rock song after programming in a few ingredients (acoustic rhythm guitar, anthem-y chorus, working class pathos), "Certain Kind of Fool" is what would come out.

Don Henley sits alone at the table tonight. He looks like he could be a better-looking younger brother of Mac Davis.

Lujack chortles mirthlessly.

Haha, Larry Lujack was the DJ I probably listened to the most growing up. Despite (or maybe because of) being a top Top 40 DJ in Chicago, he was a huge Throbbing Gristle fan.

And yeah, I was looking them up until Frey says something like "I got a letter at 1426 E. Canyon Rock Trail, Apt. E5, that said..." and I was all Damn, dude's playing me like one of his crappy songs.

He's also trying to tell us were the sexy girls are:

She moved in next door to me
And she showed me her world
What a neighbor, thanks for the favor
She's a very sexy girl

She's a sexy girl
(Sexy girl, sexy girl)
She's a very sexy girl
She's a sexy girl
(Sexy girl, sexy girl)
She's a very sexy girl

I got a feeling I can't go wrong
'Cause every time I see her
It's like hearing my favorite song
She's already down the steps
She's way down the block
But my heart keeps beating faster
And it just won't stop

She's a sexy girl
(Sexy girl, sexy girl)
She's a very sexy girl, that's right
She's a sexy girl
(Sexy girl, sexy girl)
She's a very sexy girl

I love to take her walkin' and when we started talkin'
I'd tell her she's the finest I've ever seen
She'd look into my eyes but then I realize
I'm holding on to a dream

She's a sexy girl
(Sexy girl, sexy girl)
She's a very sexy girl, she's mine
She's a sexy girl
(Sexy girl, sexy girl)
She's a very sexy girl

Stop any man walking down the street
Ask him what kind of girl he'd like to meet
There's not one thing in this whole wide world
He'd rather see than a sexy girl

She's a sexy girl
(Sexy girl, sexy girl)
She's a very sexy girl, oh yeah
She's a sexy girl
(Sexy girl, sexy girl)
She's a very sexy girl

South of Sunset is an American TV detective series, starring musician/actor Glenn Frey, that only aired one episode on CBS in 1993.[1]
Frey played Cody McMahon, a private eye whose offices were located just south of Sunset Boulevard in Beverly Hills. As a result, he calls his business the Beverly Hills Detective Agency, despite the fact he's in the "low-end" part of town. Aries Spears co-starred as Cody's young assistant Ziggy Duane, and Maria Pitillo played his cute blond secretary (and aspiring actress) Gina Weston. The show was a combination of comedy and suspense, reminiscent of ABC's hit series Moonlighting. The show was created by John Byrum, who wrote all six of the episodes that were produced, and served as co-executive producer with Stan Rogow. The show was heavily promoted during the 1993 World Series by CBS.
However, only the pilot of South of Sunset ever aired, on October 27, 1993—and not even to the entire country. News coverage of wild fires in Malibu pre-empted the show's lone episode on many West Coast stations, including KCBS in Los Angeles itself.

The only way they could've done worse by promoting it during the 1993 World Series would've been to promote it during the 1994 World Series.
