Previous | Next Los Angeles, 1990: I just remember he was just the nicest guy, and once again I worked on a couple of his videos as well. When I actually saw him do a whole concert I was really amazed at the energy. And where did he go? Gosh, he was great -- it was a great show, with a lot of movement and a lot of music. Previous Next Photo 25 ...

Previous | Next Los Angeles, 1977: Many of the people in my pictures are quite good friends of mine from my musician days, but these guys I didn't really know very well, and I don't actually remember sort of why I was here.

Previous | Next Los Angeles, 1986: During the '80s I found myself on many, many a video set, sometimes two or three a week, and this was just one of them. Sometimes I pinch myself, I mean, I'm five feet away from Annie Lennox as she's singing intently into the lens of the video camera and I'm right there next to it taking her picture. And the ...

Previous | Next Los Angeles, 1974: The next one is Jackson Browne and the Chevy, and it says, "Late for the Sky," lettered on the window by one of those Chicano artists that letter on the low riders, it's a '52, I believe. Glenn Frey had actually bought this car and given it to Jackson Browne. Jackson Browne had given it to some girlfriend, and ...

PhotoSynthesis: The Eagles' Timothy B. Schmit

  • Posted on Nov 14th 2007 5:00PM by Henry Diltz
Previous | Next Santa Cruz Island, Calif., 1978: I call this one "Timothy Schmit rides the bow sprit." The bow sprit is the thing that sticks way out in the front of the boat, and the first sail is attached to the end of it. That was Joe Walsh's sailboat, called the So What. I went with the Eagles to sail the Santa Cruz Island, which is an ...
