SC, until we fix our 'bug', you need to type out L-eadon or Lead0n!

Bernie is an awesome musician. I hope he re-joins the boys for their upcoming tour. He is one of the originals after all.

Haha I didn't even notice. Thanks. I hope you all knew I meant L-eadon

I think you all know my feelings towards "fingers"

Here's an interview with Rusty Young about Poco in which he compliments Bernie:

Bernie is getting a lot of press news on tour with the Eagles this year, but this one was specifically about him getting kudos from Linda Ronstadt in her new book Simple Dreams:

I especially liked her quote about Bernie in term's of his singing with the Eagles and I couldn't agree more:

“Don’s voice is certainly a great solo instrument and so is Glenn’s, they both can sing lead, but Bernie’s voice has a quality to it that enhances other voices. It’s a strong voice and he can crank it up in the high register. It was a real important voice in terms of forming the group’s vocal sound and what it made the vocal blend sound like. I always felt people didn’t necessarily notice it.”

Can't wait to hear him back in the blend when they come to L.A. in January

Thanks for posting! Good to hear what she said. I'm loving seeing Bernie with them! He's been a lot of fun to watch.

[Prettymaid]

Yes, he has!

[Brooke]

Agreed!

I remember reading about Bernie in her book, too! She has the highest regard for him!

[UndertheWire]

Thanks for posting. I really like his voice and I'm looking forward to hearing him, too.

It's cool to hear Bernie's voice characterized that way. I don't think he gets enough props for his singing ability. I remember Glenn saying in the HOTE documentary that when Bernie left, their vocals as a band suffered but that's about it besides this.
