Timothy Bruce Schmit (born October 30 , 1947 in Oakland, CA ), the Bass Guitar player for The Eagles , is famous for the solo style bass. His style influenced many other bassists, including Billy Sheehan . He is a highly rated vocalist, lending his voice for some of the Eagles' tracks, including "Love will Keep Us Alive" and "I Can't Tell You Why". His previous activity in a recording band came as a member of Poco in the early 1970s, where he replaced founding member bassist Randy Meisner. In a curious follow-up, he later replaced Meisner in The Eagles. In 1996 , Schmit sang on a cover of the Beach Boys' 1966 song "Caroline, No". The cover was featured on their now out-of-print album " Stars And Stripes Vol. 1 ". The Beach Boys themselves provided harmonies and background vocals on the track. Before joining the Eagles before their '' Hotel California '' album, he sang vocals and played bass for hire during studio sessions. His voice can be heard on other hits, including Crosby, Stills And Nash 's hit " Southern Cross ", where he sang backup due to David Crosby drug overindulgence. EXTERNAL LINKS |
