Eagles Members, Jackson Browne, to Honor Glenn Frey at Grammys


I like the sound of this -- which I'm guessing will be "Take It Easy" ...

From a release:
Glenn Frey will be honored at the 58th annual Grammy Awards when the late musician's bandmates join close friend and collaborator Jackson Browne to perform a classic hit from the Eagles' legendary songbook. Eagles members including Don Henley, Bernie Leadon, Timothy B. Schmit and Joe Walsh will be joined by Browne in a one-time-only special tribute to Frey.  
 "Glenn Frey's untimely passing was a huge loss for the entire creative community," said Neil Portnow, President/CEO of The Recording Academy. "For more than 45 years, the Eagles have played a significant role in shaping our musical landscape. We are honored to welcome the band, along with Jackson Browne, to the Grammy stage in tribute to Glenn's tremendous legacy."  
Eagles founding member Glenn Frey is a six-time Grammy winner. His wins include Record of the Year for "Hotel California" in 1978 and, most recently, Best Pop Instrumental Performance for "I Dreamed There Was No War" in 2009.
