When I took the gig of key holder of the Late Nite Music Club I expected from time to time to have observe a passing or two. It seems the last few weeks though it has seemed to become an obituary column.

The Eagles Glenn Frey passed away on Monday of complications from rheumatoid arthritis, acute ulcerative colitis and pneumonia at the age of 67.

Before stardom, million sellers, megatours and acting roles he was just another Michigan boy with a guitar and some songs to sing. I know lots of people will have their favorite by him to post in the comment section but I am going to take it back to his early years. Here's the b-side of the very first record played and sang on back in 1967.

What are you listening to tonight?
