Born in Detroit, Michigan in 1947, Glenn Frey would achieve world-wide success with American rock band the Eagles, and shared writing credits for many of the band's most well known songs, including "Take It Easy," "Peaceful Easy Feeling," and "Hotel California." After the Eagles broke up in 1980, Frey would go on to become a prolific singer-songwriter with songs like "The One You Love" and "The Heat Is On."
