Which Eagles song with Randy Meisner on lead vocals reached No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1976?

The Eagles song with Randy Meisner on lead vocals that reached No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1976 was “Take It to the Limit.” It was released as the third single from One of These Nights.

Meisner began the song as a solo composition, but Don Henley and Glenn Frey helped him finish it. Meisner also sang the lead vocal, making the recording unusual in the Eagles’ catalog: it was the band’s only A-side single led by him and the first Eagles A-side on which neither Henley nor Frey sang lead.

The single was released in November 1975 and became a major U.S. hit during 1976. Its success also made Meisner’s high-register vocal performance a signature moment in the band’s concerts. The album version runs longer than the edited single version.

A common mix-up is confusing it with “Lyin’ Eyes,” another hit from One of These Nights. “Lyin’ Eyes” also reached the Top 5, but Meisner did not sing its lead vocal.
