We lost the actor/singer on New Years Eve, 1985. After appearing with his family in “The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet” in the 50's and 60's Nelson carved out a new career as a singer charting 30+ tunes in the Billboard Top 40 including the #1 hits “Poor Little Fool” from 1958 and “Travelin' Man” from 1961. His last hit was “Garden Party” from 1972. Meisner Joined Nelson's band in the late 60's after being with Poco for one album. I asked Meisner in August 2000 when was the last time he'd talked to his old friend before his untimely death in a plane crash. Clip
Though band reunions are usually successful Meisner didn't have great things to say about his reunion with Poco in 1989. Clip
Randy Meisner is probably one of the nicest people I've ever interview. We will have more clips from our lost interview with Meisner in the coming week. - by John Beaudin

Such a nice man he is.
John thanks for this & other interviews. You do a fantastic job. Could you possibly try & get another interview with him?
So many ppl love & cherish Randy & would like to know that he is doing ok and hopefully have another snippet of his life with the Eagles, The Poor, Silverado's etc to share I understand he is a pretty private person & I can totally understand that too
His beautiful character, kind heart, humbleness shows. One in a million guy!
Randy is very very loved world wide. This Michigan girl loves that Nebraska man.
Randy Meisner is a true talent and never got enough recognition for what he brought to the Eagles. Even though it made him wealthy, he was dominated by Frey and Henley and succumbed to a lifestyle that few can tolerate. I did like your coverage of Rick Nelson. Another great gone too soon.
Legacy was a great album. Anyone who hasn't heard it should give it a listen. It's a true hidden gem. Too this incarnation of Poco didn't go well. Great hearing this interview and remembering Randy as he once was! Thanks so much!
Agreed. And the album had two Top 40 singles in the U.S., so that's not too shabby.
Hopefully Randy gets better and someone will get an interview with him about the good times in music in his life and career.
He has done a lot and deserves some "life giving" plugs! I bet He really has a lot of good stories to share.
Joe Walsh interviewed Randy on his Old Time Radio show in November 2020. It's on TH-cam. Go to the six minute mark to hear Randy.

I absolutely love ❤️ Randy’s voice
Thanks for this and the respect you've shown towards Randy.
I think Randy is doing better these days. There are recent photos of him with a fan, and with some of his musician friends. After all he's been through, how great that he's still standing! Love him. And thank you, John!
Thank you so much for putting this up. Love that Randy Meisner! Looking forward to more. ❤️
randy and rick were sweethearts 💕
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL VOICE.
Randy Meisner although is not in good shape physically and mentally should be interviewed to update his fans of his recovery after the tragedy that he lived. He is completely forgotten I don't know why.
It's great to hear these clips. Randy's had some struggles but he's not dead yet!! Please speak of him in the present tense while we're still enjoying his presence here on Earth ☺
Thanks for pointing that out Anne. Not sure why I said it that way. Maybe an unconscious thing since up until recently we had not heard from him. I will not do that again.
Anne Sheldon I agree with you
got to see Ricky years ago great show
Great interview. Randy is so underrated and such a gifted singer and musician. I hope he's doing better.
Mr. B., thank you SO much! Like many, I'm loving this series and look forward to hopefully another seven nuggets. One tiny quibble: why talk about Randy in the past tense? He's been through hell but he's still alive and kicking, thank God. He's currently writing and recording with friends in Los Angeles.
The Legacy album peaked at #40 in the Top 200 album chart and spawned two top 40 hit singles, "Call It Love" and "Nothin to Hide" making it one of the most successful Poco albums ever. The only other Poco album to have top 40 hits was Legend. Maybe the tour didn't turn out that great but overall the reunion was a highlight in Poco's history.
I love hearing his voice and I love Randy
Love the man, Love his voice!
Neat seeing the graphics of all the album covers, and to hear the memories.
Randy Meisner seems to be a nice guy too.
Love Randy!❤️ Thanks for sharing this. Do you know of an address where I might be able to send him a card/ note of encouragement?
Ritche BlackmoorE admitted stealing Ricks song SUMMERTIME
Uh, he preferred 'Rick'. Is that so hard?
Ricky Nelson killed in plane crash 1977 i think not 1985. Correct me if im wrong.
New Year's Eve 1985
