![I Knew You When was released this week in 2017. Seger details how the album came to be in this snippet from a 2018 interview with Gary Graff. GG: The album is dedicated to Glenn Frey, who of course was your good friend from the sixties in Michigan. BS: About three months after he passed I did his memorial in L.A. That had about seven thousand people. Everyone was there — even [original Eagles bassist] Randy Meisner and J.D. [Souther] and Bernie Taupin. I saw everybody. About a month before that I got the idea of listening to some of my old songs, and I found I Knew You When and I thought, “Oh my gosh, this even sounds faintly like an Eagles song. This is perfect,” and I said: “That’d be a great title for a Glenn tribute record,” y’know? So when I saw [Frey’s widow] Cindy in LA I asked her, “Would you mind if I did that. It’s your legacy. I don’t want to mess it up.” She said: “No, I’m sure it’ll be in good hands with you” and I said: “Okay, that’s what I’m gonna do,” and that was the beginning of it. I had I Knew You When, that was it. Then I started studying the old stuff and writing new stuff and recording a couple of covers, and a year and a half later it was done.edited 04:45 PM](https://image.24vids.com/tw-1859001559801360431/ext_tw_video_thumb/1859001438539575296/pu/img/SSLzKFuQj3d6IwFe.jpg)
