Randy was/is a great singer and player. Tim is great bass player but I always thought his voice, for lead vocals anyway, was a bit wimpy. Regardless, he really was the only one who could replace Meisner and he did the job. It's great that makes the acknowledgement.

What Timothy did was no surprise. That's just Tim being Tim, which makes him a terrific human being. I feel sorry for Glenn. Somewhere on the journey, he forgot what it was all about. And thank you Don Felder. If it wasn't for "Fingers", we wouldn't have Hotel California, arguably the best rock song of all time.
Randy is such a humble guy. Best voice in the Eagles.

+juandiamante46 I agree, he really showed class, dignity and respect. Schmitt is a great musician in his own right, but no one ever sang "Take It To The Limit" like Randy Meisner. The Eagles played this song in B back when RM sang lead. After he left they had to drop it two whole steps to the key of G (with Glenn Frey singing lead). Nobody could hit those high notes like Randy did. Frey didn't even try, even with the song dropped two keys. I kinda like Randy, can ya tell? Hotel California was their signature song, but I think Take It To The Limit was right behind that one in musical significance. Meisner has first writing credit on the song, he truly had a significant impact on what I consider to be the finest musical act of the 1970s.

@@scrimmy45 when you see the documentary, it gives you a good idea of the dynamic in that band. It was Glenn's band, that's obvious if you watch this, Henley is a big part of it and very instrumental, but Glenn is the CEO. He isn't easy to deal with but the others are supposed to accept it and a few of them have successfully remained eagles because they accept it. Joe accepted coming into the band that he was not going to be a frontman, prominent songwriter or lead singer and he was a humble man, he respected Don and Glenn as they were leaders of the band, and accepted that. Timothy felt like they saved his ass when they hired him to replace Randy, and felt like it would be audacious to question them. Felder had an agreement with them, he wanted them to uphold their end of the agreement like gentlemen.....THEY ARE NOT, and he found that out. Randy and Bernie are cooperating as they likely know that Felder and Joe had to advocate for them to be a part of this ceremony as D&G saw them as irrelevant as they had left the band during the mid 70s and had been adequately replaced. Bernie looks like he would love to expose Glenn as a piece of shit that he is but he's too much of a gentleman. He will never see him again and he is okay with that

As McDonald's founder, Ray Kroc once stated, "NONE OF US IS AS GOOD AS ALL OF US"
The Eagles have never been as good as they were with Walsh and Felder playing together. No disrespect to Bernie, but there was an awesome chemistry with Joe and Don playing together. Take away their guitar riffs and the Hotel California album would have been just another album.

Good choice. Mine are Joe Walsh, Don Henley and Felder.
Great to see that Randy could make it, looked so good and played so well. So very modest of him in his minimal "thank you's" and so very kind of T.B.Schmit to acknowledge his influence in the trenches early in the bands career, hard for someone who's not an "alpha" male God.bless both of them. Randy's Eagles songs are so very much "his" as opposed to strictly "Eagles" songs. Nice to see that they all were courteous.
Timothy is such a great man and I think he's what more musicians should be like. Same with Don Felder
Randy was always my favorite. His voice and his songs always ran a little deeper. Take it to the Limit, Try and Love Again, Certain Kind of Fool...long time favorites. Thanks Randy. ✌Mike Pardue. 🎼🎶🎵🎸🎹🥁🎤🎶

I was 19 years old in 1971 when I heard "Take It Easy" for the first time. I've been an Eagles fan ever since. Their songwriting, musical ability, and vocals are second to none. They are the greatest American band of all time in my opinion and second place is not even close. As for their individual failings, well, you can't have a group of musical geniuses without having some occasional head-butting. I, too, wish Felder was still with the band but life goes on. I'll still listen to them over and over and over, marveling at the pureness of all the songs I know so well.

I have to comment that I don't think the Eagles ever got enough recognition for how great their vocals were/are. Absolutely top-notch yet they don't seem to get the recognition that CSN and the Beach Boys (who's recognition is well deserved) do.
If you're really being honest, you can count on one hand the number of bands from any era of music that never once recorded a bad song, and you know the words to all of their songs, no matter which decade it was recorded in. The Eagles are one of those very rare bands, and their music has more than stood the test of time!!

I liked Glenn Frey in the Eagles and solo. Didn't know him of course but felt connected to him as the others. Just so sad that they had such animositys toward each other. There was a huge price to pay for all that fame and fortune. He was the focal point on all of that and it ended up eating him alive and he ended up dying. Such a sad ending. Maybe that song of theirs most of us our sad really does ring true. God bless them all and I hope he made peace with God. He had it all but I hope he didn't miss the greatest achievement; eternal life with the creator
Joe Walsh and Randy all the way!! And Timmy Schmidt is a class act. I love Glen and Don's music but i think its really hard to be fans of guys that have such a cold hearted cut throat mindset. Easily the most musical talent of almost any rock n roll band ever

Randy Meisner had been contemplating leaving the Eagles for years before he actually did it in 1978. Being in the band had cost him one marriage and was about to cost him another relationship. There was some tension when he left, but all was forgiven for this occasion. They would have invited him to be a part of the current History of the Eagles tour (as they did with Bernie Leadon) but, sadly, Randy's health would not permit it.

I'd like to thank the Eagles band members for becoming such a great band called the Eagles and bringing us their fabulous songs over the years. And I'd like to thank the people who gave them such inspiration to write them. And thanks to the people who may have written some of these songs for them. And I'd like to thank myself & all the millions of fans like me, for loving such great songs, that made the Eagles what they are to us today.. But I'd like to say to case county music. Please stop giving me copyright issues for playing them on youtube. If we don't get to play them they will fade away. And if we can't play them, how can the Eagles know they are still loved so much by us all. Buying their albums doesn't always say their loved. Keep it real Eagles. You are still loved today.
I didn't think Randy was included in the Hall of Fame Award Show; thankfully he was. They should've welcomed him back when he asked to come back in the '90s!
B is a lovely musician who came from POCO, which was a great band in itself. He is truly humbled because he experienced when the band was already developed...
The Eagles are one of the best rock & roll band groups and country music as well. Although the band have been separated for fourteen years but able to reunite together prior to the late Glen Fry, one of the original members and founders. The band have won six Grammy awards , five No # 1 Singles, 17 ( Top) 40 Singles and 6 No # 1 Albums. I have been a loyal and dedicated fan since the original band was formed in 1971. During the opening of the ceremony for acceptance of being inducted into the Hall of Rock and Roll Fame, I have thought that Don Henley , one of the original members and founders was extremely humble with his acceptance speech. It is a boy's dream to become a successful songwriter and musician by just picking up a guitar and playing a set of drum but unforseen his future to be one of the most noticeable and sensational rock and country band ever performed on stage with so many hit singles and albums. Secondly, it was a nice introduction of Randy M by Tim Schmidt. It was a nice appearance of Vern to be acceptance of the award. It would have been nice to see Don Felder who happens to be an excellent guitar player and a creative writer. I have thought that the late Glen Fry was humble for the acceptance speech and the style of his speech was be thankful and grateful that we are the main reasons for their success in all of these past years.

When they opened their set w/ 'Take It Easy' I kind of forgot about the JT band and sat listening to harmonies, guitar parts, and lyrics that were as close to musical perfection as you could ask for. Here are a few of my favorite Glenn Frey penned songs below. He will be sorely missed by this world but enjoying his new life in another.

Terry Smith you are very right about your words and I see you speak with the heart. How wonderful times you were LIVING through... congratulations👍👍. For new generations like us is like sour taste to prove everytime that those were the golden years of music when talent were honored and not like nowadays... 😯😳. YES THE EAGLES ARE TIMELESS...!☆☆☆
Imagine if they were all in the band at the same time. What an all star lineup of talent. Each had great solo careers.
Timothy is pure class.
God speed Glenn, your music will live on. My heart goes out to all your family and your family 'The Eagles'.
I worked for many years in Dallas with Dallas, Power, and light (T.U.Electric),,,and we would have to trim the tree's from the power lines to prevent outages and such (due to the great ice storm of 1981). Don Henley lives in Dallas, and when we had to remove some major overhang from his tree, he was a major prick. I love the Eagles. Always have, and always will, but he was a very difficult client to deal with. I lost a wee bit of respect when he pulled the, "Do you know who I am" card.

Hey it may seem revolting but we all get amped up now and again. It shouldn't affect his Hall of Fame inductance. Sorry, couldn't resist, I have a capacity for humor.

I mean, he's kind of known for being a tool, but that's not what I care about, it's his gift and his talent for music that's really all that matters. Also, if it was 1981, he was probably loaded out of his mind from drinking and drugs still, and considering the Eagles just broke up a year earlier probably didn't help.
What a bunch of real people
I always like it when someone thanks their mother and father, like Randy did. When you think about it, they are really the most important people in the world to most people
As a drummer from Texas like Don, my mother and father also backed me up in my small South Texas town. At 61, I still remember the neighbors complaining about my late night workouts. But unlike Henley, my father built me a small room off the garage far away from the house so he could get some sleep. Damn drummers! I thought we were supposed to be felt, no heard. Oh well, rock on young drummers!

I'm 19 years old and I have a crush on Timothy Schmidt. :) I love The Eagles.
Now Timothy...that is a class act for thanking Randy!!!!!!! Kudos to Schmidt and much respect!!!!!
When I think of this band it's Randy that sinks in as the reason for their success
When I hear the eagles, it's like listening to my dad and that's why I love them.
Rip Glenn, my heart is breaking...

My momma always told me if I couldn't say anything nice, to say nothing. Well Glenn, I'm saying "NOTHING" in your direction. lol Enjoy!
Randy Meisner!! take the devil and certain kind of fool!! world class songs! what can I say about everyone else? I love them all very much, Glenn frey, joe walsh, tim. schmit, don henley, bernie, that's how i want to remember THE EAGLES, who cares if everything failed, all what really matters is on CD's and DVD's and in my heart as well

I hope he is a relative, because otherwise that is weird.
Well, at least Bernie Leadon got accepted back in the band for their final (?) tour. Randy Mesiner had such an incredible voice and talent. He from recollection had stage fright. I hope he gets his life in order.
Sorry to see Glen Frey gone too soon. RIP, we loved your music and everyone knew every word , and that says alot.
This video seems edited as I remember a few members like Felder saying more than just commenting on Walsh's outfit and thanking his wife. He also thanked Frey and Henley for writing much of the Eagles music like Walsh did.
'So sorry to read about Randy's wife's death. (Loaded gun went off in their home.) And, today is Randy's birthday. He's been having some big struggles lately. Leadon/Meisner era will always be my favourite Eagles era.
