"It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce the passing of our comrade, Eagles founder, Glenn Frey, in New York City on Monday, January 18th, 2016. Glenn fought a courageous battle for the past several weeks but, sadly, succumbed to complications from Rheumatoid Arthritis, Acute Ulcerative Colitis and Pneumonia," the Eagles wrote in a statement Monday.

Discussing the superb 2013 History of the Eagles, Part 1 documentary with Billboard, Frey said: "You couldn't have asked for a better script for a bunch of guys in their 20s trying to make it into the music business. We were young, we made mistakes, we still make mistakes. It's the story of an American band, but it's also the story of the songs we wrote and what those songs did to [people]. We're here because everybody likes the songs."

The Eagles were one of the most successful bands of the 1970s, with multiple hit singles including Hotel California, in 1976.

Frey co-founded the Eagles in 1971 with Don Henley, Bernie Leadon and Randy Meisner.

Tausende Fans teilten die Nachricht über den Tod Freys auf Facebook und Twitter und drückten der Band ihr Beileid aus. «Glenn Frey, Du wirst zutiefst vermisst werden. Danke für alles, was Du uns gegeben hast», schrieb etwa Sängerin Sheryl Crow auf Twitter.

Harmonie mit Misstönen

Wer an die Eagles denkt, hört im Hinterkopf sogleich den Refrain von «Take It Easy». Oder aber die gequälten Strophen aus «Hotel California». An beiden Songs hat Glenn Frey mitgewirkt, der 1971 zu den Gründungsmitgliedern der Eagles gehörte.

Seine Sonne ging nie unter

Er hatte den Text 1977 mit seinem Freund Don Henley verfasst, der den Song jeweils hinter dem Schlagzeug vortrug. «Hotel California» heisst er und bleibt das berühmteste Stück der Eagles, und das soll etwas heissen bei über 150 Millionen verkauften Alben.
