Vince Gill has a somewhat surprising message for Eagles fans who say that the band can never be the same without Glenn Frey.
#VinceGill #GlennFrey #TheEagles
In a recent interview, the country legend says he understands why they feel the way they do - and he even agrees to a certain extent.
Gill and the Eagles both took their fanbases by surprise when they announced that Gill was joining the band in 2017. Both fans and the band members themselves had assumed the Eagles were finished when Frey died on Jan. 18, 2016, at the age of 67 after suffering complications from rheumatoid arthritis, acute ulcerative colitis and pneumonia. The band returned in a new lineup that included Gill and Frey's son, Deacon, each taking over part of his lead vocal duties in the iconic group alongside Don Henley, Timothy B. Schmit and Joe Walsh, and they've toured off and on ever since.
In an interview at the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville, Gill says he understands some fans' online criticisms.
"It's different, and it's not as good as the original," he states. "I don't sing like Glenn, and I don't pretend to. I see a lot of people making negative comments about me being in that band ... I get it. It's my favorite band, too. I don't want to hear me sing 'New Kid in Town,' but the other option is not possible. So I'm just trying to do my part to keep some great songs afloat."
Gill admitted that his gig in the Eagles is bittersweet during an interview with Taste of Country in 2017.
Watch the interview: • Vince Gill Explains Wh...
"Because Glenn was a great friend, and in my heart of hearts I wish I wasn’t doing it," he stated. "That would mean Glenn would still be around, but life is what it is and you just go do what you can do because of what happens. Those songs deserve to live on as long as they can."

I agree with Vince on this. He is not trying to be Glenn at all, and he's always been a great singer, so I think The Eagles did a great job of choosing Vince to fill in Glenn's shoes!

What a positive and talented addition Vince Gill has made to help carry on the Eagles. He’s not trying to replace Glenn Fry, he’s merely making it possible for the band to carry on as many other bands and groups have done. How generous of Gill to offer his talents and skill as an accomplished and gifted musician and vocal artist! Congratulations to the Eagles and Vince Gill. This was a great and unselfish idea. May you all prosper happily!

@Tombo1230 3 года назад

Vince Gill is a top end artist in his own right and a worthy addition to the Eagles. Nothing can bring Glen back and that is sad. The Eagles can continue and the songs can be heard, that is what is important now.

@davew9617 3 года назад

Saw the Eagles present configuration in Milwaukee in 2018 ... Saw the Eagles in Milwaukee in 1977 or so ... and enjoyed both shows in their own right. So-called purists who need something to gurgle about usually just like to hear the sound of their own voice. Both shows were superior. Vince is a superstar in his own right ... as are the Eagles.

@michaelhayes9773 3 года назад

The Eagles were a different band when Meisner and Leadon left. Frey was a huge reason they both left. But it was freys band and his decisions. The Eagles have made a living off their past success as a lot of musicians do, nothing wrong with it. They are still good with or without past lineups.

@nancycampanella6725 2 года назад

Nobody can sing TAKE IT TO THE LIMIT and do it justice! This song belongs to Randy Meisner’s vocals unconditionally! It was made for him only❣️

@joshthompson8918 Год назад

Yes even Glenn who sang it after he left would tell you. He got a lot of crap but he always put what he considered was best for the band first even if it meant him singing lead in fewer songs. Henley practically became the vocalist by their last album.

@ralphgoreham3516 3 года назад

I am 77 and view the eagles with Glen as the greatest all round guitar based group of all time. I have played guitar for 60 years and know a thing or two about groups though retired. A sad loss but I offer the following suggestions. There is nothing to be gained by Glens son, the opposite. Don has lost his quality somewhat and Vince should take the lead in some of his songs. Timothy could be given more in that regard too. A primary source of the bands strength was/is its harmonies and this ought be maintained and even added too. Vince is a superb guitarist and more from him leadwise would also help. In short much of the bands tightness would be restored.

@ralphgoreham3516 3 года назад

That said, though not up to the standard of yesteryear I live in Australia but would still go and see them if they came to Adelaide Australia. Sad, I know thats not going to happen.

@bobdixon532 3 года назад

I assure anyone reading this comment that no one outside of Glenn's family was more heartbroken upon hearing his death. The eagles got me through high school, breaking up less than 2 months after I graduated in 1980. I know exactly where the track on the eight track tape changed in the middle of Best of My Love, I wore out at least four cassette tapes of the Greatest Hits Volume 1, and have all the original vinyl. My kids were raised on Eagles music. At Epcot many years ago, the cover band Hotel California was performing at the pavilion. While other teenagers sitting with their parents looked bored and played on their phones, my kids were grooving and singing along with the band. I love the attitude Vince Gill has regarding his role with the band. I wish Glenn was still alive too, but her is not. If I have a choice between never hearing Eagles songs again or listening to Vince sing Glenn's parts, I will take the latter. Don't forget, Don and Glenn were master songwriters that were responsible for most of these songs, and I do not think Glenn would have wanted the music to die because he is not longer with us. One by one, we will lose the rest of the band. However, the true test of an artist's music is how well it survives after they can no longer sing for us. May the music Glenn and his friends and band mates wrote and recorded live forever.

@cindypowers4993 3 года назад

I too lived and breathed the Eagles. They were my favorite band in the '70's. I have all the original vinyl albums also. What struck me about your comment was the fact that one by one, they will leave us....... none of us are ready for that, no one could have forseen Glenn leaving us. But their legacy of music will live on forever

@joshthompson8918 Год назад

Why would the music die? Henley will die sooner or later and there will be no more eagles concerts. Will the music die then? What a lame argument. Henley gets away with anything.

It was a great blend of both Vince and Glen’s son Deacon … Vince has over 20 Grammys for crying out loud ! It’s not like he’s some novice singer ?! Just enjoy the music whilst we can I say 🙏🏻

@saraleanne3610 3 года назад

I'd have to think about big money, but other than that, I am seriously considering taking a long trip from my home in southern Illinois to see them in Dallas next September. After watching several fan videos on here of past shows and then their 2018 show at The Forum that was shown on ESPN back in the summer, that is looking more appealing to me. Two other big factors in my thought process are the fact that Dallas is the closest city on the 2021 tour list and also the possibility that they might decide to call it quits again. Looking back, I think I made a big mistake choosing to see Kenny Chesney over the Eagles when both acts came to Busch Stadium in St. Louis. Don't get me wrong, Kenny was good, but I think I would have really liked that Eagles concert, even with the little glitch that happened.

I think its great....And Vince can do it better than anybody.....exept Glenn.....you can please some a the People some a time.......Rock it out Vince!!

@vaughncook8815 3 года назад

As a musician myself, I would find it an honor (If I had Glen's talent and success) That my surviving bandmates continued on with an Artist as talented, humble, and just a good person as Vince Gill is. In my opinion I don't think there's a better choice but Vince to keep the memory of Glens contribution to the music world alive!!!

@ralphgoreham3516 3 года назад

agreed. Wise choice and really I cant think of a better one.

Saw The Eagles last night in CLE, Vince was fantastic. What a concert.

@Dutchball 2 года назад

Just saw them last night in Milwaukee. Gill was an absolutely inspired choice for the group, he fits seamlessly

@eaustin2006 3 года назад

Fry sang Meisner's Take it to the Limit for years, in a different key so he could handle it. Otherwise they wouldn't have been able to do the song at all. This happens with every single group from that era as guys quit or die. To complain that Vince Gill is the replacement stand-in is ridiculous. Vince Gill can only improve any group he's in. He's an incredible guitarist with a beautiful voice. I'd say grow up Eagle's fans, but odds are you're already pretty old

Vince Gill has a great heart and he's doing what he loves to do.

Vince Gill is the most talented musician in his own right. People criticizing him need to get a life, checking their hearing would be good too.

@davidvoit631 3 года назад

Its that way with all great bands but if they want to keep working they could not have made a better choice

It’s hard to replace Glenn, but if anyone can, Vince can!!

@thrivnak787 3 года назад

Gill is the perhaps best addition to the band for Frey.No one can take Glenn's place but Vince will fill the void nicely.

@joshuakemblebluegrass838 3 года назад

He’s right, no one can sing like Glen but Vince and Deacon do an incredible job carrying on his legacy

@edmondcamp2878 3 года назад

Vince is not trying to take anybody’s place and he’s a good fit besides with all due respect to Glenn Frey Vince is the only one that can do justice to take it to the limit since Randy Meisner.

@theunknown4570 2 года назад

I teel you what. There are a lot of people who have replaced other gone artist. To complain about Vince filling in here. Is absolutely unjustified.And frankly ,selfish. Of all the people who have replaced others. #1 Vince is one of the greatest voices in recorded history. #2 Hell of a musician and harmony singer. #3 Super humble and laid back guy. #4 Hall of famer. YOU SHOULD BE DAMN LUCKY TO HAVE HAD HIM. Selfish ignorance if you complain about him replacing.

@amythompson6869 Год назад

I really liked Vince as a solo country artist BUT….I adore the Eagles! They were my all time favorite band. I’ve seen them numerous times over the years with different lineups but you just can’t beat the original. However I do love both Randy and Timothy. I think everyone accepted Deacon because he was like Glenn made over. But I never accepted Vince as an Eagle. Nothing personal against him but he just doesn’t fit. JMO.

@Vince Gill I have listened to it for the last 20 years off and on. I enjoy country rock, and really enjoy your work with the Eagles. You have nothing to prove to anybody.

@nashdrifter3629 3 года назад

The Eagles have 6 Grammy Awards. Vince Gill has 22. (For reference Paul McCartney has won 13). Haters may stfu. Vince is a fan and is only there because they asked him to be. Fools will be fools

@bigb5206 2 года назад

I think it’s fantastic that his son is stepping up and taking his father’s Legacy to new heights in the band. We just got tickets for the show here in Indiana and I for one cannot wait. This is a bucket list sort of thing for me. To the assholes complaining so what then don’t go to the concert! What you want someone lip syncing! This ain’t RuPaul’s Drag race This is the FU&KING EAGLES!

@anthonyhicks8589 2 года назад

"They" can say what they want but Vince Gill is a picker and damn good singer. Saw The Eagles in Raleigh 2022 and they were great. Vince was a perfect fit.

@bechtoea 3 года назад

I think it's great that they tour. That being said, the fact that they charge what is beyond ridiculous tells me it's about the money, not the music. I do believe, thanks to COVID and the alternative outlets for live music on social media, I believe the days of the routine high priced ticket for a tour that plays 5 days a week are over. I hope so. I understand the front row and even premium seating being a premium buy, but damn, when the nosebleeds are over $100, that's just greed. It flies in the face of "Keeping the songs alive."

@donniehill5688 2 года назад

I couldn't think of anybody that would be more suited to join the Eagles. It was hard for many of us to lose Don Henley and Glenn Fry it was hard for all of us. But with wanting to keep the band touring Vince Gill was a Dream of another member to support the band and the history.

@toletaarmstrong4779 3 года назад

You Rock Vince. Tell them to let you sing Do Something

@guibox3 3 года назад

It's not easy to replace such a key member, especially one who sang a good chunk of the lead vocals. I'm sure hard core Bon Scott-AC/DC era fans were shocked and appalled when they heard Back in Black for the first time. Same with Paul DiAnno fans hearing Iron Maiden's Number of the Beast with Bruce. What are you gonna do? Vince Gill's philosophy is dead on. He is not trying to sound like Glenn. No replacement singer SHOULD sound like the previous one.

@martinlouden9005 3 года назад

Vince is a real asset to the Eagles. Glen sadly died, but hey, nothing's gonna bring him back. In the meantime just enjoy the Eagles in their current lineup. Stop dwelling on what can never be!

@trwagner1 3 года назад

For people who think the Eagles can't exist without Glenn, your all far**. Let's let the best musicians to sing and in honor to sing and make those songs live on. Those who want "pristine" Eagles to continue are bound to see the Eagles music die on the vine.

@michaelolz 3 года назад

People need to knock the negativity off. Vince is an Eagles superfan, a world-class guitarist and he’s won more awards than these people have brain cells. Let the Eagles live if they want to live. If you’re not happy about it, stay home and listen to your reel-to-reel decks.

@Steeler86Fan1 2 года назад

Vince Gill is amazing! Vince isn’t looking to be Glenn Frey! Vince definitely fits right in. Above everything, he’s a great guy! We gave him an ovation for at least a full 2 minutes! Let’s appreciate the fact that The Eagles found a way to keep their amazing music going. Just seen them 3/26/22 at PPG Arena in Pittsburgh. And let’s not forget most are in their 70’s and still got it!! Joe Walsh can play a mean guitar at 75! Joe forgets some of the lyrics but who cares, I’d see them again and again if I had the chance, they were amazing! #EaglesKeepRockin! #RIPGlenn @VinceGill you’re welcome in Pittsburgh anytime, we love you! 💛🖤

@joshthompson8918 Год назад

So he’s looking to be in an Eagles tribute band? You make it seem as if they were still recording albums with not heard before songs.

@Steeler86Fan1 Год назад

@@joshthompson8918 🤣🤣🤣 @ Vince Gill being in a tribute band! Where did I say they were recording new music? All I said was he was a great fit with the band to keep The Eagles music going! And how is he in a “tribute” band with original members?

@fluthyhehim66 7 месяцев назад

@@joshthompson8918 given how Long Road Out of Eden went, a new Eagles album probably would not do well. There's only 1 song on Long Road Out of Eden (Hole in the World) that I like as much as their older stuff.

@katemaloney4296 3 года назад

Absolutely NO ONE ELSE could have taken over this empty spot in the band and made it successful. Vince has the ability to sing the middle and high parts without straining to hit the notes. He is a perfect fit because of his past pop-country experience and being so darn relatable. Vince is funny and self-deprecating and doesn't put on airs. I've heard horror stories about Don Henley on the road, but I haven't heard ANYTHING negative about the tours and concerts. I think Vince brought a "peaceful easy feeling" to the Eagles that they never had before.

Saw the Eagles in Dublin June 22 with Vince and Deacon performing. I am so glad they are keeping the music alive. Vince's performance of "take it to the limit" was breathtaking and emotional. Glenn would surely have been proud.

@lindagibson3755 3 года назад

I think Glenn would approve. Vince gill is a good person and great guitarist.

Hey he's helping out one of the greatest band in history, and he fills Glenn's shoes nicely.. The music is the thing that matters. Glen would be proud to have Vince filling in for him.
