DON HENLEY談GLENN FREY
他像我的兄弟，我們猶如家人；我們和大部分家庭一樣，也有爭拗。不過，我們45年前建立的關係，就算在樂隊解散14年之間也沒有間斷過。
當年兩個年青人懷着相同的夢想到洛杉磯朝聖；我們在音樂業界留下印記，過程中我們努力不懈、熱愛音樂。我們與其他音樂人及經理人Irving Azoff緊密合作，締造比我們想像中更歷久不衰成就。不過一切都始於Glenn。他是讓事情發生的火花，計劃一切。他有如一本流行音樂的百科全書，對工作態度始終如一。他為人風趣、頑固、反覆無常、慷慨、有才華、有動力。妻子和兒女為他一生最愛。
我們都感到很震驚、難以置信，十分傷痛。歷時兩年的「Eagles歷史巡迴演唱會」去年7月方才完滿結束，現在他離開了我們。我並不太相信命運，但我知道1970年遇上Glenn Frey後，我的生命永遠改變了，地球上數百萬人的生命也受到影響。在一個沒有他的世界走下去，將會很奇怪。然而，我每一天都會很感恩，他曾經在我的人生出現過。我的兄弟，安息吧。你的成就遠多於你親手建立的一切。
-Don Henley

DON HENLEY ON GLENN FREY
“He was like a brother to me; we were family, and like most families, there was some dysfunction. But, the bond we forged 45 years ago was never broken, even during the 14 years that the Eagles were dissolved.
We were two young men who made the pilgrimage to Los Angeles with the same dream: to make our mark in the music industry — and with perseverance, a deep love of music, our alliance with other great musicians and our manager, Irving Azoff, we built something that has lasted longer than anyone could have dreamed. But, Glenn was the one who started it all. He was the spark plug, the man with the plan. He had an encyclopedic knowledge of popular music and a work ethic that wouldn’t quit. He was funny, bullheaded, mercurial, generous, deeply talented and driven. He loved his wife and kids more than anything.
We are all in a state of shock, disbelief and profound sorrow. We brought our two-year “History of the Eagles Tour” to a triumphant close at the end of July and now he is gone. I’m not sure I believe in fate, but I know that crossing paths with Glenn Lewis Frey in 1970 changed my life forever, and it eventually had an impact on the lives of millions of other people all over the planet. It will be very strange going forward in a world without him in it. But, I will be grateful, every day, that he was in my life. Rest in peace, my brother. You did what you set out to do, and then some.”
