Longbranch Pennywhistle was a country and folk influenced musical group consisting of Glenn Frey and J. D. Souther. They released a self-titled album in 1969 under the Amos Records label. However, the label dissolved a couple years later in 1971, and the duo split up. Shortly thereafter, Frey joined the Eagles. Souther and Frey would continue to collaborate, also with fellow Eagle Don Henley, occasionally on such Eagles classics as "The Best of My Love", "New Kid in Town", "Victim of Love", "The Sad Café", and "Heartache Tonight".
They also recorded the song "I Can't Believe It" used in the 1971 film Vanishing Point. Oddly enough, this song does not appear on Longbranch Pennywhistle's only album.
