Even
though he left the Eagles after the Hotel California
tour in 1977 Randy Meisner will always be remembered
as the voice of 'Take it to the Limit' and 'Midnight
Flyer.' He still sings those Eagles hits live

mostly he lives the simple life in his house
in the hills of Studio City Los Angeles. We

Some

World music legend Ravi Shankar who became a household name in the mid sixties
through his association with George Harrison and the Beatles has always found
God while creating and performing his own music. His friendship with Harrison
was strong right up until his death in November, 2001 |
