songwriting w/ glenn frey

[@ec1628]

I show this to my sophomore classes numerous times a year. Whenever they complain that someone is holding them back. Trying to tell them, you are the only one keeping you from greatness.

You're fighting a losing battle because nothing could ever possibly be their own damn fault because they're so special

@@josephkool8411 Ha ha ha. Unfortunately there’s a lot of truth in your text. I have so many stories to support your statement.

This is an amazing excerpt! And this is exactly how it's done. It's not waiting around for inspiration! Start with nothing, build it into something amazing, with hard work and time! 🎵 🎶

[@sess122]

As an individual songwriter and fine artist I can attest that it is also the most "isolated/isolating" occupation there is.

[@AudioJohn7]

Are you in Cali? We should collaborate! 😊 Love the process!

Beautiful blue eyes. RIP Glenn, I love you.

Beyonce is a musical genious. Roling Stone says hers albums are the greatest ever, but she has an army of writers, Choregraphers, dancing instructers, well funded pr team and a very rich equally untalented husband

@@josephkool8411 Oh yeah Joe....I wonder how she assembled her great team. How did she pick such a talented group as you listed, and then get them to work so effectively. I wonder if she gets any credit for that..... or was it just dumb luck. Or did it all just fall into her lap. All she ever has or had to do it life is just show up? Really.

Hey, thanks for this... yeah, I can vouch for Glenn. Ha! Writing is not glamorous :) Yet steady and methodical wins every time...

As a young lawyer many years ago, I made a point of discarding the original draft of any submissions I wanted to make to a Court because they NEVER were as good as the second draft, and so it went. Usually by the 4th or 5th, I had distilled the best and shed the rest. I should have set them to music.

[@ColeTaylor-eo6pu]

that good solid advice.

Glenn probably still went downstairs and bitched him out for being too loud and waking him up.

[@camilleslim9736]

Lol, right!

[@happypapi1903]

JD Souther had an apartment in that building too. Drove him up the wall 😂

[@halea41]

Lol yeah people tend to embellish things

[@Unoogooder]

Never made a cup of tea in my life... But, apparently same with this guy. The paper at the end of the string, goes in the cup. hehe

Happens to the best of us. A pro loops the tag around the handle.
