Peaceful Easy Feeling: The Songs of Jack Tempchin
“This album, Peaceful Easy Feeling: The Songs of Jack Tempchin, is [my recordings of] all the songs I wrote with Glenn Frey, plus “Slow Dancing,” “Peaceful Easy Feeling” and “Already Gone.” For “Slow Dancing,” I recorded a duet version with Rita Coolidge, and we’ve filmed a video with the two of us singing on it.
Also on the album is “Soul Searchin’,” which I recorded with blues singer Janiva Magness. And then I recorded an acoustic version of “Already Gone” with my friends Chris Hillman and Herb Pedersen. Chris, Herb and I also recorded a song called “It’s Your World Now,” which is on the last Eagles album they recorded (Long Road Out of Eden). I also did a song called “Privacy” which Glenn and I wrote, but no one’s heard before. We’re making a video of this song…
This was a great new opportunity—I’d never recorded any of these songs. It was challenging, but I think the album turned out great and I’m glad I did it. Also, by doing duets which I don’t normally do, it expanded me musically. So it was really a good thing.” – Jack Tempchin in Songwriter’s Universe

The boys at their best ! Great song Jack !
..One Of My VERY Favorite Songs, of ALL Time!!
Do you remember when I said when the Eagles and Jimmy Buffet ever come close that I was going to Kidnappe you and take you to the concert well that still stands now so be weary just in case!!!
I was there!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
This album sounded so California! In the best way! Maybe because I lived there for awhile!
Anything by the Eagles is good!
Always loved this one! Glenn gets to play the dual lead lead with Don. They don't modulate up on this one any more...smart!!! That sucker is a killer after the key-change!!
One of my favorite lines ever❤️

One of my favorite songs!
One of my favorite songs 🎶 🎶 🎶
Always puts me in a good mood. Thanks for sharing Jack!!🦅❤️
Love that song got through some rough break ups
Linda actually saved the Eagles by covering this song!
Hey jack, I always heard the eagles started out as Linda's back up band, is this rite ? Love 'em both!
The fans were listening. The Eagles catalog was unfolding. They were building the base for what we see today in the current version of the band. Overall they kicked ass, took names, and left the rest in the rearview mirrors for the century. The people who didn't appreciate the bands prowess were the record company executives who wanted product that jumped off the shelf to line their pockets with cash. Linda covering anyone's song was a good way to get attention because she could sing damn near anything well.
I will always Love and Miss GLENN 💕FOREVER .
One of my favs love love this way to go Linda what a voice
This gal could really sing!!!!
What a fantastic singer! I saw Linda & her band preform at Va Tech way back in the day. I took my brother Clark for his birthday! A great show!
Everyone should check you tube for Seinfeld and the desperado episode - classic eagles and Jerry
She used to end her concerts with an a cappella version of this song and it always brought me to tears ❤️
I love Linda Ronstadt and she covered the song well, but I’ve never heard anyone that sings it like Don Henley.
What a voice*. I always wondered if Linda ( made a lot of money) off of this song,,,,,,,,,,
One of their best
Incredible version of this song!
My old buddy Clay Johnson who I worked with at Kings Department Store in the 70s used to come over and get me to crank this song up in my Pioneer 838 and he would close his eyes and just melt down. She was sooo hot singing this song!!!
I miss Linda and all her performances. And this is the song she always ended her shows with🙁
Linda took this one and made it a hit!
Fav song of all time Linda is brilliant songstress also the eagles
Lovely Linda could make the phone book into a hit
Loved the song loved Linda Rhonstads versions!
Awesome song! Linda had an amazing voice!
She is for sure one of the best!!
Love the song !
Such an emotional rendition, so heartfelt.
love her and the eagles
The American answer to Edith Piaf! A true great.

Hey have a great evening Jack good night God bless!
Jack, when are you coming to Austin?
My favorite Eagles album. So much so that a buddy and I took a road trip to Bitter Creek Wyoming back in 95. Before the internet. We spent the better part of the day talking to locals, driving the high plains. Takeaways from that evening were that a train used to come through Bitter Creek, there used to be a dance on Saturday nights and there were spots in the creek that you could not wade into as there was quick sand that you’d get stuck in or pulled under when the water was high. If memory serves me correctly the locals said the railroad shut down in the 1950’s. Not much of Bitter Creek, the community was left in 1995. Mike
This was my favorite Eagles album, I wore one out and had to buy a second one. I can’t tell you how many nights at my old one bedroom apartment that we all spent drinking Budweiser’s and listening to this album. I still have the album and the CD and play them both.
My favorite Eagles album. Could never understand why people didn't love it as much as I did.
Cheers for sharing Jack.Another timeless classic from the best band ever.A stunning album.
I also think it's the only album that Don had to play so heavy on the drums in reference to Outlaw Man and Outta Control. It's my 3rd favorite album by them!
Ready to see them here in the Raleigh arena within the hour. 🎸😀
This was my favorite album by the Eagles. They were so fresh and their sound was extraordinary!
They're opening for Jimmy Buffet at Riverbend this summer.
Jeezus...I can't even come close to an absolute favorite song or album. There were so many. What a treat to have such great music permeate my entire being in a most positive way.
One of the best albums of all time!
Had 8 tracks cassettes and a cd of this album over the years and wore them out been looking for it in stores but can't find it anywhere great times great music great band but do have on the border greatest hits 1 and 2 on cd all their albums are just plain genius
Effin rawk cowboy album best served with tequila at sunrise
Took me 30 years to figure out the guitar solo by Bernie Leadon in Doolin Dalton Instrumental ...
Love it!!!! ALL OF THEIR ALBUMS ARE MY FAVORITES!!!!!!
On my turn table now
A classic.
One of my favorite songs😘👍
Love The Eagles !
Still my all time favorite album/CD
I will always Love and Miss GLENN 💟 FOREVER.

One of my top 2 Eagles albums One of these nights being the other
One of my personal favorites.
Thanks for sharing Jack!
Concert review: Don’t think the Eagles are the Eagles without Glenn Frey? Think again.
charlotteobserver.com
To those who passed on Wednesday’s concert at Spectrum Center because they think the Eagles aren’t the Eagles without Glenn Frey — that the magic simply isn’t there anymore without him — I c...
I don't care how good he sounds, that band is NOT The Eagles, to me anyway. I wouldn't go see them if it was free.
Saw them at Dodger Stadium last July for the first concert since Glen’s passing.....very emotional and Deacon was good but clearly nervous! Saw them a month ago in Chicago and this past Saturday in Orlando! My what 8-9 months can do for all of them!! Have to say the last 2 concerts have been incredible. They were great in July but now that Deacon and Vince have settled in they are fantastic! Loved every minute and will be going again! ❤️❤️
We saw The Eagles in Nashville a few weeks ago. Deacon was awesome!! Bonus that Vince Gill played with them that night. No, they are not exactly like The Eagles from the past, but they are still great!!
I have seen some awesome Elvis impersonators, but they aren’t Elvis. ...talented, nonetheless. But the Eagles without Glenn, and without others just aren’t the same. Huge fan of Vince Gill. But I saw Eagles in the 70s! We are fortunate to have a fantastic Eagle cover band.
As long as Henley is there, it is great!
I think change is what keeps music alive. I am thankful the Eagles, Jack Tempchin and other great talents of our generation are able to fulfill the needs of the die-hard Eagles' fans while keeping it musically outside the box fresh...
I call BS on Mark. Free concert, he would be there. Listen to Seven Bridges Road. They are all very talented.
They're not the same, but I'm glad they're keeping their names out there. Glad they have Deacon with them, but especially glad that they have a voice, guitar picker and performer like Vince Gill!!
Deacon Frey sounds just like his daddy!! Saw them last year, loved it❤️
Deacon is a Jewel. Errily is the right word. The sight of him Sat. Night brought me back to the days when Glenn was his age. Both stunning men. Glenn was there in spirit. Gave me chills.
Concert of a lifetime for me in Columbus on 4/8/18. Loved every minute of it. The guys, all the guys, sounded flawless. Keeping Glenn’s legacy alive by continuing to tour and certainly honoring the music and his memory in the most profound way.
The music is what is important. I think Glen would say the same. The music lives on long after the composers have passed. And that is what most artists hope for.
Saw them at the hell freezes over tour and have seen them twice since Glenn Frey passed...they are as good now as they were then. Gill is a perfect fit and Deacon has gotten a lot more comfortable with then band!!! I love The Eagles...hope they rock on for many more years!
This is an embarrassment. Don Henley should have kept his word and retired the band after the death of Glenn Frey not try to reinvent it to keep the band cashing in.
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.RIP Glenn.
It was amazing! Saw them in Chicago. It ramped up my love for this band and their music all over again.
i saw them live about a week ago...i had reservations about seeing them without glenn but decided to go anyway...as i watched deacon sing, eyes shut tight and seemingly a million miles away...i was suddenly brought to tears...not because they weren't all terrifically talented (deacon looks and sounds so much like glenn, it is downright eery) ...but i was just overcome with emotion at the finality and loss of the decades of music and what would never be again...i had seen glenn and the eagles play this very same venue just 4 years prior and i will be forever grateful for that opportunity ... ☮️☹️
Don, Tim, Joe and Baby Eagle Deacon... Stuart Smith said on the History DVD " He is not an Eagle"..but is happy playing with them. Where did VG get the title of Eagle?. He should clarify that already.. Or Don should. This is ripping the scab off the wound of loosing Glenn ..
they were great all of them. just breaks my heart that they dont get along and dont talk to each other. shame. btw i saw in lexington last week and louisville last october
I see them again tomorrow night! I can't wait!
Deacon does a great following his dad's foot step. But I bet the rest of the band has his back.
Jack , I want to hear for myself So much. I live in the southeastern part of Georgia Will they be near me
Awesome review Jack thanks for sharing
I was there for the show in Charlotte. Outstanding!
What an awesome song list!!🤗👏
The album I play often. "Here's To Life" I become emotional every time I hear it for the obvious reason. A great album, and "After Hours" is an exquisite classic song, good work Jack & Glenn. I only wish Glenn had recorded more of the old standards, he made them his own.
After Hours, both song and album, kick ass Jack. Kudos to more great writing you old songwriter, you
This is such a great collection of songs that make me think of my parents music (which I loved) but with a great musical twist!
And my very favorite, after The Shadow of Your Smile <3
Watched Glenn's son perform last night in Orlando! OMG, what a talent!
Thanks for sharing, Jack. Damn fine tune
Route 66 written by Frankie Ortega, Taught me bass
I was just on Route 66 the other day
Great album for sure!
