Glen Frey grew up in Detroit, Michigan and after moving to California, hooked up with Don Henley, Bernie Leadon and Randy Meisner in 1970 and formed the hugely popular band, Eagles. They did, however, break up in 1980 and but went on to have a pretty successful solo careers of their own, including Glen Frey.
One very interesting fact I picked up from Wikipedia and his website was that the character of Russell, the lead guitar player from Cameron Crowe’s film Almost Famous, was based primarily upon Glenn Frey. "Just make us look cool," a dialog in the movie between Russell and William Miller (Crowe's autobiographical critic) was apparently a direct quote of Freys', according to Cameron Crowe who interviewed the Eagles on the road as a teenager.
The aptly titled ‘Sexy Girl’ is my record cover of the day.
