City: Winslow, AZ -- The song "Take It Easy", written by Glenn Frey and Jackson Browne, became The Eagles first hit single in the 1970's, and put Winslow on the map. The verse "Standin' on a corner in Winslow, Arizona," draws visitors from far and wide to stand on the famous corner on Historic Route 66. This year the Standin' on the Corner Festival will be located on Kinsley & Second St.
