    Glenn Frey releases “The Heat is On” 41 yrs ago today, for “Beverly Hills Cop”. “I was between projects, the Eagles were done,” he said. “But that film had an energy to it. .. Radio grabbed it .. Suddenly I’m out playing this thing and crowds are going nuts — fists in the air .. I’m proud of that.”
