I agree with the disappointment some have expressed here at the lack of proper tribute in some of the music press. As a free-lance journalist who has written for music publications and national newspapers, I have to say that getting anything beyond the most superficial coverage on any subject is becoming increasingly difficult.
I wrote a tribute to Glenn that took a look at how much someone we do not know can touch our lives and how deeply we can feel their loss. The Mail in the UK expressed an interest in the piece but then sat on it for weeks before deciding that it was no longer current. Another major magazine in the UK said they found the tribute deeply moving and thoughtful but that they could not run it because they were saturated with submissions on other subjects....I wanted to ask how many of those other subjects had touched as many people at such a deep level. Anyway, that gives some idea of the frustration that even an established writer can experience when trying to place a feature that I think many, many people would have wanted to read. There again, the day after Glenn's death The Guardian ran a (to my mind disgraceful) piece saying "sad he's dead but the Eagles were a rubbish band."
So provocation and controversy and a bit of spite seem to be the order of the day,
alas. I posted my tribute on one of my blogs. I've already put the link on a couple of other threads here but in case you missed it
