Randy Meisner in the Press

Good point, Goran. I edited my comment out.

I look to all sorts of sources, Thank you.
And thanks MC for the support because if their is a Fan Site for Randy it is public domain, I would imagine. Press is just a word. Anyhow it was a well wished message at that.

If you had read my comment properly you would have seen I said "passing on information and photographs provided by a certain person", not the site it was on and no, Press is not just a word. In my personal opinion, and this is NOT directed at DJ, I find it bizarre that people trawl through the whole of the internet to get the tiniest piece of information on a person. That includes visiting social media sites of their family and friends of their family. It is an unhealthy obsession and some will do anything at all if they think it will be to their advantage.

"Press" is just a word. We don't have individual threads for the guys for when someone tweets about them or posts Facebook items about them, so we put them in the press threads. Of course, none of the other guys have friends and family members that openly post about them. The others all seem to respect their privacy. So for the others, it's usually more about a fan seeing them somewhere, or something like that.

Can we just move on because it was a well wished message and that's all.

Just wanted to put a word in as administrator - I agree that we must be careful about where photos and information comes from. I know there are some people who do not wish what they post elsewhere to appear on the Border, so we just have to keep that in mind and respect their wishes.

Here's a 1981 article on Randy where he talks about his new album and leaving the Eagles. He sounds like he had no regrets.

While I was searching for Timothy articles I came across this interesting interview with Randy

http://www.smoothjazznow.com/intervi...dy_meisner.htm

Does anyone know when this interview was done? Wikipedia says it was retrieved in 2009 but I think the actual interview may have been done earlier.

I can narrow it down to 2000-2003 based on the drummer he mentions and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Classic_Rockers .

Good estimate, UnderTheWire. Since then, the interviewer John Beaudin was kind enough to respond to my email: "I talked to Randy around 2001. He had lots of time so we just talked and talked."

John also shared that he will post the audio to this interview on YouTube, which I'd really like to hear! I love Randy's voice, both speaking and singing.

Good investigative work!

TBS' soul patch does correspond to his 2001 album Feed the Fire.
