A member of an iconic 70s band was spotted on a rare outing in Malibu on Friday.
This 78-year-old musician was casually dressed in indigo blue jeans and a long-sleeved brown shirt during a trip to upscale grocer Erewhon.
He pulled his long, gray locks into a low ponytail and wore a pair of round, dark sunglasses.
He was solo during the outing, and rounded out his look with a pair of black sneakers with white laces and soles.
The clean-shaven rockstar was seen loading items into the trunk of his car after his food haul.
Can you guess the mystery bassist?

The mystery celebrity is none other than Timothy B. Schmit, who performed as part of The Eagles as well as Poco.
He replaced Randy Meisner, taking his spot in both bands and joining as a bassist and vocalist for the rock collectives.
Nearly three years ago The Eagles announced their final tour, The Long Goodbye, after more than 50 years in the industry.
The band formed in 1971 and in addition to Schmidt, is comprised of Don Henley, Joe Walsh, Vince Gill and Deacon Frey – who is the son of the late Glenn Frey, one of the founding members of the band.
They kicked off their farewell tour on September 7, 2023 in New York City.
‘Our long run has lasted far longer than any of us ever dreamed. But, everything has its time, and the time has come for us to close the circle.
‘The official farewell tour is currently in the planning stages,’ the band said in a July 2023 statement.
The Hotel California band announced 13 tour dates, booking Steely Dan as an opening act.
‘The Eagles have had a miraculous 52-year odyssey, performing for people all over the globe; keeping the music alive in the face of tragic losses, upheavals and setbacks of many kinds,’ the statement continued.

They concluded the emotional message by thanking their management team, road crew and backup musicians.
The Eagles started out as the backing band for singer Linda Ronstadt in 1971 and became one of the most successful American rock bands of the 1970s.
Founded by Frey, Henley, Bernie Leadon and Meisner, the group racked up five number one singles, six number one albums and six Grammy Awards.
Their self-titled debut album was released in 1971 and had two top 20 singles – Take It Easy and Witchy Woman.
However it’s their 1976 album Hotel California that is their most well-known, with the project selling over 26 million units in the US.
