Re: Glenn Frey Working on New Solo Album!
Well I would love to hear 'After Hours' on the new album too, and as it's going to be the title I'd say we have at least a 50-50 chance of it being on.
On a related but different topic, anyone got a link to 'I'll come Running Back To You?' I loved that Glenn :heart: dedicated it on the first night to his 'girlfriends who have come from across the globe to be here tonight'. I remember thinking at the time...... 'OMG! I wonder does he KNOW about Julie and I?'

Re: Glenn Frey Working on New Solo Album!
I don't know about you guys, but I'm excited to have something to even speculate about now!
I was thinking... what other covers might be on there? He mentioned Nat King Cole, Dinah Washington... you know I don't really know anything about Dinah Washington but I plan to find out more. As far as Nat King Cole, I love that song "Unforgettable." Maybe he'll cover that?
I personally would like him to include "My Girl" but I'm not sure if that fits into his vision.
Re: Glenn Frey Working on New Solo Album!
My Girl would fit into the timeframe because it's from the Sixties. Unforgettable is so well known that it may not necessarily be his first choice; I honestly don't know. This is not my era of music.
GA; the most famous version of I'll Come Running is by Sam Cooke. I was as pleased as you were when he did it. I loved the 'Los Angeles, London England, Niagara Falls' part. I was so pleased that he sang the name of my favourite city in a song.
Re: Glenn Frey Working on New Solo Album!
I'll Come Runnin' Back to You is old enough to be on that album, as is I Hear You Knockin', but I didn't get the impression those would be on there from the way he introduced them separately. Still... hmmm!
You know when I first heard I'll Come Runnin' Back to You I thought it was a new song. Some songs are timeless!
Re: Glenn Frey Working on New Solo Album!
I would rather neither of those were included on the album. I think it's great that he plays them live but as you say they did not appear to be the songs he was talking about. We want to hear different songs.
Re: Glenn Frey Working on New Solo Album!
That's true. Keep it fresh!
I could go either way on it, myself.
Re: Glenn Frey Working on New Solo Album!
Thanks for that info Julie, i'll check it put ASAP!
Re: Glenn Frey Working on New Solo Album!
According to Wikipedia, Route 66 was done originally by the Nat King Cole Trio in 1946, so that could be the only Nat King Cole song on the new album.
Re: Glenn Frey Working on New Solo Album!
I was looking for info on Dinah Washington & discovered that she released an album in 1954 titled "After Hours With Miss 'D'". However, there isn't a track on the album called 'After Hours'.
