Randy Meisner has passed away at the age of 77. The Eagles founder member, bassist and guitarist died on 26 July in Los Angeles due to complications from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), according to a statement shared on the band's website.
Meisner formed the Eagles alongside Glenn Frey, Bernie Leadon and Don Henley in 1971, contributing bass and vocals to much of their greatest work – including their hit Take It To The Limit, which he co-wrote and sang lead vocals on.
