GLENN FREY
NO FUN ALOUD
Original full album vinyl pressing
Elektra/Asylum Records E1-60129

Both vinyl and original inner-sleeve are VG++ to M-.

Signed by BOTH Glenn Frey and Jack Tempchin with a black sharpie
Downtown San Diego on Frey's 1980's Tour

BOTH cover and vinyl VG++
Looks Mint minus but the very slight yellowing on the inner sleeve detracts from that grade

Tiniest bit of yellowing along the edges of the inner sleeve, but super clean overall. Shiny vinyl. Shiny white LP cover. Played by me personally back in the day. I took great care handling my record collection. Visual grade only. I no longer have a turntable to test these. No perfect playback can be guaranteed.

I was very lucky to obtain this autograph from Glenn Frey. In those early years he was easier to approach and ask for an autograph. I had waited outside the venue and caught him as he walked in for soundcheck. A short while later I recognized and asked local songwriter Jack Tempchin to sign the album as well. Tempchin is well known for co-writing several hits with Frey and appeared on the album. 

No Certificate of Authenticity, COA's can be faked just as easily as an autograph. I've never ONCE purchased autographs online, ever. My large collection only consists of autographs that I have obtained in person with these artists and celebrities. I've been collecting in-person autographs for decades.

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 co-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. The saxophone from "The One You Love," which tags alongside the soothing chorus, makes the song even better, and "I Found Somebody" hints at the Eagles' warm, harmonic style. Even the average-sounding "All Those Lies" went to number 41, but efforts like "That Girl" and "She Can't Let Go" are thinned out too much, as Frey gets a little too involved with singer/songwriter colloquialisms. Some life is regained with a spirited attempt at Frankie Ford's "Sea Cruise," one of the album's real movers. With Frey's own production assistance, No Fun Aloud stands up as a modest debut album.
