Product DescriptionTimothy B. Schmit is one of the finest singer, songwriter and most utilized musicians to ever come out of the California classic rock genre of the 1970 s. Mastering his unique vocal style and bass work, he got his first break in the business replacing Randy Meisner as bassist for the pioneering country rock band Poco, alongside the legendary Richie Furay. After several hit albums, he replaced Randy Meisner once again, but this time with The Eagles, joining them for their multi-platinum smash The Long Run.
After The Eagles took their initial break from the recording scene, they all embarked on amazing solo careers. Timothy later delivered his debut solo Playin It Cool, a dynamic treasure trove of fan favorites featuring the voice and artistry of the legendary Timothy B. Schmit.
Featuring his single hits Playin It Cool and So Much In Love, as well as more rock classics like his stellar Something s Wrong featuring the multi- guitar attack of Joe Walsh, Steve Lukather and Josh Leo, plus the stunning balladry of Tell Me What You Dream which was also a hit years later for Restless Heart, all truly made this one of the finest debut solo recordings of the classic rock era.
Timothy brought his years of solid musicianship and vocal expertise for this amazing solo album, which has been out of print for many years.....until now.
