RANDY MEISNER at The Joint (Los Angeles) - May 29, 2000

[@aeromamakinforever]

What treasure he was. So glad i found this. Randy you are sorely missed 💔

[@paulapeterson-warnock3030]

I know Randy had it rough and health problems in his last years, but losing him feels like an ache. RIP. You will not be forgotten

[@gwenwillis3924]

1:33 I agree

[@Holly-z2i]

I still can believe he’s gone. He was such a talent. I thought Frey and Henley felt threatened by him.

[@whitleydenise5482]

He had way more talent than Frey and Henley and yes they knew it and definitely felt threatened

[@paulapeterson-warnock3030]

@@whitleydenise5482 Randy once said they have a perfect blend of harmony. Love Randy’s song “Try to Love Again” and his album “One More Song” is a must-have. Randy was also way cuter than the others ❤️

Randy is family….

My crush among the Eagles ! The best member of the band! Rest in peace Sir Randy Meisner.🙏

[@ritayoung6040]

Mine too.

[@wolfeyes9357]

Randy was a HUGE part of those first few Eagles Albums...without his bass parts and those incredible vocals, they would have been only half a band!!!!!! Man, I was 12 when I first heard this in Moms 1072 Monte Carlo in New Jersey. Mom turned it up and I was mesmerized listening to Take it to the Limit! GOD Rest Randy Meisner!

[@shaykatz5648]

My favorite Eagles song Take It To The Limit ❤. Randy had a big hit with it, possibly irritated Glenn the most just from his actions on some of the videos. Loved Randy's voice

[@melissafarmer4149]

I love Randy!! My mother was crazy over Randy Miesner. They passed within two days of each other! She went to heaven with Randy and Jesus singing her on!!!♥️♥️♥️

So glad I stumbled upon this gem. Long live Randy Meisner 🙌🏽👏🏽

[@debbiedellinger6178]

Love you, Randy! Rest In Peace

[@morgan72359]

Randy Meisner joined in for three songs. I bet he could sing “Peaceful Easy Feeling” “Take It to the Limit”, and “Already Gone.” in his sleep. Hearing his "Already Gone" here was a real treat. You're missed.

[@glennsheppy2159]

God bless you Randy. You flew with the Eagles. Now you rest in the palms of the Lord. Your fans love you forever.

[@SpicyGherkins]

ive listened to many versions and many legends try to replicate take it to the limit, and not one comes close to his voice. true legend

[@ellabailey4790]

totally agree and miley just destroyed the song, so bad I had to turn it off

[@cmusic05]

This is a treasure! Sweet Randy, beautiful voice. Wish he could have made the Eagles last tour. Might have changed his life.❤

[@kathymatejovsky7565]

He's looking a little rough, but he can still sing. I sure missed him on all the tours starting in 1994 going forward. I so wanted him in the band. I saw Bernie Leaden with the Eagles at the Forum on a "get together " tour. Randy was mentioned that he wasn't feeling well...to say the least! Maybe he thought folks forgot about him? Certainly NOT! The Don & Glenn (RIP) 😂show ruled. 3 original members were driven out of a magnificent band.😢

[@kathymatejovsky7565]

I definitely think it would have given him a better life than sitting around in Scottsbluff, NE.

[@stevenjordanmoreno8163]

Randy died a few weeks back

[@kathymatejovsky7565]

@stevenjordanmoreno8163 yes, he did. COPD was the cause of death. If he could have been in the Eagles, I don't think he would have had the same outcome. Tragic ending for him.

Doing what he loves best and adding that incredible high tenor harmony. This brought tears.

[@lawrencevelasco3855]

Randy Meissner. As far as I'm concerned Randy had the best voice I've been lucky to have heard He first came to my attention when he was in Rick Nelson's Stone Canyon Band. Rick, who while alive, never got the acclaim he deserved. I guess Rick and Randy are my al time favorites. ALWAYS. May they Both, RIP

[@phyllisrogers847]

I am so glad we did have this film to see him sing I just wish we could have heard him rest in peace Randy we love you and we miss you and will always treasure your music

[@cjcover6467]

Randy Meisner, by far the all time best singing voice in the Eagles. It wasn't until the super voice and guitar talent of Vince Gill came along that the band has come closer to replacing Randy. Great to see Waddy, Phil, and Bernard up there in the old old days at the Joint. This evolved into Waddy's own Monday night jams at the Joint with all sorts of stars joining in: Johnny Rivers, Danny Kootch, Terry Reid, Rick Rosas, Blondie Chaplain. Loved the Joint!

[@mikeburton8916]

Jack Tempchin is one of the greatest song writers of all time. He wrote Peaceful Easy Feeling, one more song, co wrote with Glenn, already gone , smugglers blues. The man is a legend. Not to mention one of the greatest guitar players of all time. Waddy Watchel. 3 legends right there.

[@stevestipe4514]

To me, Waddy is one of the mostly unsung heroes of my generation. Played/backed up so many people. I'm always amazed to see him in something new (to me).

[@jamespursell272]

True but please leave the singing to the band !

[@imho2278]

Yes, watch Waddy going loopy at Stevie Nick's concert...she walked off and left him to it. Do not let this man sing.

[@shaykatz5648]

​@@imho2278 The White Wing Dove was on TV way back when...late 1980s. That's when I became aware of Waddy. I was more impressed with him than S. Knicks.But then I was a fan of Cristine McVeigh ❤RIP

So happy to see Randy still singing his signature song at his age❤

[@russellherron1829]

I was there that night. The house band for Jack Tempchin’s regular Monday night gig was: Waddy Wachtel guitar Rick Rosas bass (Neil Young) Bernard Fowler backup vocals (Rolling Stones) Phil Jones, drums (Tom Petty) The who’s who of rock and roll would come sit in with Jack when they were in town. Johnny Rivers was a regular and got up to sing a few songs that night. I got to hang out out front between sets and talked with all the guys. Everyone was very friendly. Randy and Jack were real genuine people. They also all signed a telecaster I had in my trunk.

[@russellherron1829]

I forgot to mention…it was a free gig, just a bunch of working musicians getting out to play on a Monday night. I went back several times when was in town.

[@rsu5327]

[@CajunCooper89]

Take It To The Limit is HIS and his ALONE. This song was his high and his low. So PRECIOUS to hear this!! Thanks for the video!! Btw, I agree, I think touring the farewell tour would have been FABULOUS for him! NO more Glenn Fry!! RIP Sweet Man

@@fredmartin153 Yeah, I don't think that was down to Waddy, Fred; the gig was recorded on a camcorder, which was placed too near the amplifers. Not the best way to record!

[@iulenny]

I didn't know what to expect, but i guess i should have because i found this video for a reason. Randy has always had a gravitational pull about him. Cheers to the lucky ones who were there. I might add I liked hearing the guitar cranked up(on take it to the limit) like that cuz it's always hidden back in the mix.

[@emmaanderson4196]

Appreciate it so much for sharing this video and would like to see more of Randy's music and songs especially when he was still with the Eagles or Poco.thank you very much.

What strikes me after reading and seeing a lot about Randy's life, he changed so much when he lived with his second wife. He got more struggles with his health, is that a coincidence?

I think I read was a lot of alcohol abuse.

True story, this just populated on my feed, so of course i clicked I have 5 week old kittens, and they live to play. When he started singing, they all stopped and came over and jumped into my lap, and now theyre sleeping.

[@Jbewell1991]

@margaretross9150 oh, those naughty.kittens hear just great. It's their listening where they run into trouble!!! And now the big brother has lesrned to purr on demand because he thinks if he comes over to me. Jumps in my lap, puts his adorably sweet sweet face and lays his head on my arm. That it will just get him out of mischief! Works every single time.

Love Meisner. I’m surprised waddy wachtel let his guitar overpower the song as he really is a talented and experienced guitarist. I was sorry to see Tandy’s health seems to have deteriorated so much since his time in the Eagles.. still he was such an integral player. It’s sad how he and Felder were treated. RIP Randy, Glenn

[@ElectricEarldotcom]

Not Waddy's fault. The camcorder was in front of Waddy's amp. The vocal P.A. speakers were overhead, aimed at the crowd in the room.

[@KaraLey98]

I think Randy looks good-you might have heard about his health -not bad here -except the copd would definitely hurt his breath capacity and singing at a later point - was this really 20 years ago?
