Glenn Frey Eagles Guitarist Dead At 67

Wow. Whos next. It seems like all my favs are dropping right and left. RIP Glenn

We're told the cause of death was a combination of complications from rheumatoid arthritis, acute ulcerative colitis, and pneumonia.

Frey had been battling intestinal issues for months and had surgery in November. We're told in the last few days his condition took a turn for the worse. He died in New York City.

Glenn co-wrote and sang on most of the Eagles hits, including "Take It Easy," "Tequila Sunrise," "Lyin' Eyes," and "Heartache Tonight," to name a few. He also co-wrote "Hotel California" and "Desperado" with Don Henley and took home 6 Grammys

Yes, RIP. One of my friends showed me this on their phone while I was away from the computer.

My favorite song... of ALL songs... I found it when I was about 8 in the enclosed porch of a friend of my mom;s while there was a party there. I put the album on, there are lyrics in the sleeve. I started singing. People from the party came to the porch to listen. They all clapped. Got me singing.The first one I sang in front of an audience as well:
