Frey..though I agree that both were great...I liked Freys Sexy Girl, The Allnighter, The One You Love, All Those Lies, Smugglers Blues, True Love, You Belong To The City...lots more. Henly was cool too, but Frey is better, IMHO ;)

Oh, it would be cruel to make me choose!!

The Eagles are my Dad's favourite band, so I grew up listening to all their songs. When I was a teenager, my Dad was in a band and did the Eagles numbers, I did the Linda Ronstadt ones.

If I chose, my Dad might never speak to me again, though my favourite Eagles solo effort is 'All she wants to do is dance'....

Don Henley by far. I liked a few of Glenn Frey's songs, but not as many as Henley's:

The Last Worthless Evening, All She Wants To Do Is Dance, Dirty Laundry..... :)

Glenn Frey...You Belong To The City...& The Heat Is On

Glenn Frey, but only by a slim margin. I liked the solo work of both guys, but Glenn Frey had a bit more "energy" to his music than Henley did.

I always thought of Glenn Frey as a nice guy, a people person. Henley seems so pissy all the time and it shows in his music. There's nothing wrong with it but I like happy music much more, so Glenn wins easily. Even on most of the Eagles hits, I liked Glenn more as he sang lead on some of my favorites, Lyin' Eyes, Heartache Tonight, Tequilla Sunrise, Already Gone, Take It Easy and New Kid In Town, to name a few.

It's hard to decide between Henley and Frey, but I gotta go with Henley.  I lov e his songs "Boys of Summer" Dirty Laundry" and the duet he made with Stevie "Leather and Lace".  But hey I gotta hand it to Frey, he ain't so bad either... I love his song "You belong to the City".

What about Joe ;) ? Out of these 2 I'd say Henley :)

Hey juruby, you're color will show much better if you type the word hot before pink ;) Welcome to this place, nice to have you here :)

Both had some cool songs (in the Eagles, as well as solo), but overall I'd pick Henley.

Although around 1989, he would start declining into adult contemporary hell, he definitely had more hits. Ranging from borderline hard rock (i.e. Dirty Laundry, I will not Go Quietly -- Axl Rose even did backup vocals on that one. How cool is that?!!) to arena rock (Boys of Summer) and pleasant ballads (Not Enough Love in the World, Last Worthless Evening), to many other styles, it's hard to not like him. Plus, I think he's got the catchier singing style - barely, but still.

However, Glenn Frey ain't far behind. I do like that his 80's solo music is usually more 'fun' as opposed to Henley's consistent political commentary. It's also got a little more of an R&B edge as well. My favorite would be "You Belong to the City" which, even though it's sort of a mid-paced ballad, still always seemed tough/cool to me (maybe it's the Miami Vice thing!).
