Well, whatever history is associated with this photo, the whole thing is lovely. Thanks for sharing!! That made my night.

Photos of Randy's 1978 solo tour are exceedingly rare, but the haircut looks very similar to the photo in question:

It's since been confirmed that the photo in question is from Randy's 1978 solo tour. Here's another photo from the same show.

Agree with you Funk looks like from 78- 80's when he played guitar in his own band.
Re: Randy playing acoustic guitar in concert w/ Eagles
The weird thing about Randy's solo career, judging by the bootlegs I've heard, is that Randy doesn't appear to be the front man of his own band. I can understand him being uncomfortable in the spotlight but letting somebody else take over isn't a feasible alternative.

Try buying some legit solo albums. You might be able to hear Randy's supreme voice better.

That's interesting, F50. I haven't seen or heard any solo Randy bootlegs but will surely search harder now that I know some exist. What shows have you heard?

What do you mean about not being the frontman? He is singing lead on every song!
Re: Randy playing acoustic guitar in concert w/ Eagles
Funk, I do not know what you are listening to but I have all of his solo albums and he definitely is the lead singer on all of his songs. From some of your previous comments it is quite obvious you are not a big fan of Randy, which is fine, we all have our favorites.
