I was mostly interested in his work with Poco (Timothy Schmidt replaced him there when he left for the Eagles, and then replaced him in the Eagles) and HIS projects. BTW, I prefer the Jack Temption (the writer) version of, Peaceful Easy Feeling to the Eagles cover, as I do most of the songs they covered (like Jackson Brown's Take It Easy). It was pretty dang hard to escape the Eagles back in the day. Payola? I don't begrudge him his payday with the Eagles though. I can testify COPD is not a pleasant way to leave this Earth. R.I.P.

Randy Meisner Has Died
One of the founding members of the Eagles, Randy Meisner, has died at the age of 77. I don't know much about his career after the Eagles, but the fact that he was there at the beginning makes his death a loss for everyone who liked the group. I'll never forget the first time I heard 'Take It Easy' on the radio in 1972, and asked the question "Who are those guys?". Then came 'Witchy Woman', and I was hooked.
