Glenn Frey – Soul Searchin’ (1988) [CD-Quality + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip]

Glenn Frey - Soul Searchin' (1988) [CD-Quality + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip]

Eight years after the demise of The Eagles, Glenn Frey had settled into a career that involved writing the occasional movie theme song, taking the occasional acting role, and, every four years, turning out another album of light soul-pop tunes written with Jack Tempchin.

Glenn Frey – No Fun Aloud (1982) [CD-Quality + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip]

Glenn Frey - No Fun Aloud (1982) [CD-Quality + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip]

Glenn Frey’s first solo album plotted two Top 40 singles, with “I Found Somebody” going to number 31 in the summer of 1982 and the destitute-sounding “The One You Love” hitting number 15 two months later. With help from Jack Tempchin, who wrote the Eagles’ “Peaceful Easy Feeling,” the album reached number 32 on the U.S. charts, but it’s Frey’s perfectly guided vocals and impeccable talent for crafting laid-back love songs that make the album noteworthy.

Glenn Frey – The Allnighter (1984) [CD-Quality + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip]

Glenn Frey - The Allnighter (1984) [CD-Quality + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip]

The Allnighter is the second solo studio album by Glenn Frey, the guitarist and co-lead vocalist for the Eagles. The album was released in mid-1984 on MCA in the United States and the United Kingdom, two years after Frey’s modestly successful debut album No Fun Aloud and four years after the demise of the Eagles. It was and still is Frey’s most successful solo album throughout his whole solo career, having reached No. 22 on the Billboard charts, and releasing two top 20 singles with “Smuggler’s Blues” and “Sexy Girl”.

a-ha’s recording career hit the skids in America with its third release. But in the U.K., the album became the group’s third straight to peak at number two, though it charted for a shorter period than the first two albums, and there were four Top 25 hits — the title track, “The Blood That Moves the Body,” “Touchy!,” and “You Are the One.” (Also included was a-ha’s 1987 theme from the James Bond movie The Living Daylights, a U.K. number five that missed the U.S. charts.)

When Steely Dan released Two Against Nature in 2000, their first album in 20 years, it was an unexpected gift, since all odds seemed against Donald Fagen and Walter Becker reteaming for nothing more than the occasional project, let alone a full album. As it turned out, the duo was able to pick up where they left off, with Two Against Nature seamlessly fitting next to Gaucho and earning the band surprise success, including a Grammy for Album of the Year, but the bigger surprise is that the reunion wasn’t a one-off — they released another record, Everything Must Go, a mere three years later.

Notorious for shunning concert performances, Steely Dan’s improbable live reunion in the mid-’90s eventually turned into a full-fledged reunion album. Since Steely Dan fans went two decades without even the hope of a new record, the very prospect was a delight, but it was also a little worrying, since a botched comeback would tarnish the band’s legacy.

With 1974’s Slow Dancer, produced by Johnny Bristol, Scaggs recast himself as a more R&B-infused singer. 1976’s multi-million-selling Silk Degrees found Scaggs’ switch paying off commercially, displaying enough skills and chops that the odious “blue-eyed soul” tag was deemed passé. This is noticeably more detached than Silk Degrees. And although this set is indeed quirky, the often unsurprising production featuring almost-on-cue guitar solos makes this album more “mainstream” than it had to be.

1980’s Middle Man was Boz Scaggs’ last album for Columbia before an eight-year self-imposed sabbatical. Scaggs nonetheless caps off the decade with equal nods to his ’70s hitmaking formulas and the newer, shinier production techniques of the coming decade.
