LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES- OCT 30, 2019…ANOTHER HAPPY BIRTHDAY GOING OUT TODAY TO THE EAGLES BASSIST TIMOTHY B. SCHMIT. TODAY HE’S 72. SCHMIT JOINED THE EAGLES IN 1977 DURING THE EAGLES “HOTEL CALIFORNIA TOUR” REPLACING RANDY MEISNER (WHO HE ALSO REPLACED IN POCO). ALTHOUGH THE EAGLES ARE THOUGHT OF AS THE QUINTESSENTIAL CALIFORNIA BAND, SCHMIT IS THE ONLY MEMBER OF THE GROUP TO BE A NATIVE OF CALIFORNIA. HERE’S SCHMIT HANDLING THE LEAD VOCALS ON THE EAGLES HIT ‘I CAN’T TELL YOU WHY’
