Please note – this podcast includes excerpts from some of the songs original songwriters, including Glenn Frey & John Phillips, both of whose interviews were recorded 20 years ago on primitive equipment, with unfortunately unclear telephone lines, so their audio quality is poor but have been included for their historical importance.
