An absolutely mean spirited, hipster piece that should never have been published. Plays right into the cliche of Audiophiles and arrogant, smug, and clueless audiophile reporters.And to the best of my knowledge, this is unprecedented..publishing a screed against a popular artist after their passing. An artist who brought joy to millions to boot.
I worked professionally with Glenn Frey and I can tell you he was more dedicated to his craft that anyone and had more talent in his pinky that anyone at Stereophile.
And to add insult to injury, neither the writer or the editor corrected the reference to Fly Like An Eagle. Sad.
