Meisner, Swan and Rich performed at the Palomino Club, which was located in North Hollywood, on June 30, 1995. It was a popular club for both musicians and patrons. It was known as the “world-famous Palomino Club” and was open from 1949-1995. So, Randy, Billy, and Charlie Jr. played there the year it closed. The musicians and bands that played there through the years were varied…from country artists like Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and Jerry Lee Lewis to Linda Ronstadt, Rick Nelson, George Harrison, Bob Dylan, and Gram Parsons. The Palomino drew in many big-name performers. A few weeks earlier on May 20, 1995, Randy sat in with Boy Howdy at the Palomino and sang ‘Take It To the Limit’ with them.

The “Behind the Music” video below is a good overview of what the Palomino was like. Unfortunately, Meisner, Swan and Rich don’t appear in the video. A lot of the scenes from the movie “Every Which Way But Loose” with Clint Eastwood were scenes filmed inside the Palomino, and several of those are in the video.

Videos of Meisner, Swan and Rich performing at the Palomino on June 30 are at the bottom of this page.
