CHINAIMAGES.DEPOSITPHOTOS_244310134 The Eagles forged their place at the forefront of mainstream rock music in the 1970s with a laidback but deceptively regimented sound that netted them hundreds of millions in record sales, with enduring smashes like Their Greatest Hits and Hotel California. Notably, the founding bandmates (Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Randy Meisner, and Bernie Leadon) spent some of their early days together in Encinitas, where they would lay the groundwork for a legendary career. They gathered at a home on Neptune Drive, situated on the cliffs of Leucadia. A plaque nearby 1 9 6 F E N C I N I T A S - O u r H i s t o r y a n d P e o p l e
eads, “The Eagles lived and recorded their music here in the early 1970s.” It is a direct, unpoetic statement, but when the subject is one of the most successful bands of all time, a band whose reputation precedes them by far, there is little else to say. The Eagles spent time in this house and on the beaches below, co-writing songs with musician Jack Tempchin, including “Already Gone” and “Somebody.” But Tempchin, who has long resided in Encinitas, is perhaps best known for providing the Eagles with one of their most enduring hits, “Peaceful Easy Feeling.” In 1980, the group disbanded and went their separate ways. Joe Walsh, Don Hendley and Glen Frey all had very successful solo carrers. In 1994, they formally reunited for the “Hell Freezes Over” tour. Frey commented at their first live performance, “For the record, we never broke up. We just took a fourteen year vacation.” The Eagles have been nominated for eighteen Grammy Awards, which resulted in six wins since 1973, including Record of the Year for “Hotel California” in 1978.. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1988, and into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2001. Sadly, on January 18, 2016, founding band member, Glenn Frey, from Detroit, Michigan, passed away at the age of 67 from complications of rheumatoid arthritis and pneumonia. Frey wrote or co-wrote (often with drummer Don Henley) many of the group’s songs and sang the lead vocals on a number of Eagles hits including “Take It Easy”, “Peaceful Easy Feeling”, “Already Gone”, “Tequila Sunrise”, “Lyin’ Eyes”, “New Kid in Town”, “Heartache Tonight” and “How Long”. The current members of The Eagles are Don Henley on lead and backing vocals, drums, percussion, rhythm guitar; Joe Walsh on lead and rhythm guitars, backing and lead vocals, keyboards; Timothy B. Schmit on bass guitar, backing and lead vocals, harmonica; Deacon Frey on rhythm and lead guitars, lead and backing vocals; and Vince Gill on rhythm and lead guitars, backing and lead vocals.
