Don Henley Is Going Country

Don Henley, legendary lead singer of the Eagles, is making a solo country album.  Henley is currently on tour with the Eagles, but according to "Diablo" Magazine, the Eagles front man is planning to record a collection of country tunes.  The songs will be both cover songs as well as some originals.  Now, the Eagles have always had a mass appeal and particularly with country music fans, so the idea is not that far fetched.  In fact, they have had success on country radio, but this will be a first for Henley's solo projects.  Henley tells the mag that he would even like to collaborate with Merle Haggard.
