Sweet! "You're No Good" was a number one hit for Linda Ronstadt in 1975, so it got a lot of radio play throughout that year along with her cover of The Everly Brothers, "When Will I Be Loved". Ronstadt has said in interviews that she was inspired by the version recorded by The Swinging Blue Jeans in 1964, but her version sounds more like the Dee Dee Warwick version from 1963. The two backing vocalists in the clip are Sherlie Matthews on the left and Clydie King on the right closest to Ronstadt. Both ladies enjoyed legendary careers appearing on hundreds of recordings. For one example, along with Merry Clayton, they both also sang the background vocals on Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Sweet Home Alabama".

Okay so my mom was a huge Linda fan & had this album on cassette tape so I heard it *at least* 100s of times growing up. But I honestly think this performance on The Midnight Special is better than the studio version.
Linda always nailed it live and as fabulous as the studio recordings are, I usually prefer the live versions. Here's my favourite version of this song ua-cam.com/video/_bj_32QeAaU/v-deo.htmlsi=fXw4zeGFWqf1f95G

🔥🔥🔥🔥 definitely! Linda is a top tier singer the best of the best. I remember how much you dug her cover of I knew you When. One of my favorite songs by her. Her and Dusty Springfield are noted for doing covers as good or better than the original. Have you reacted to Dusty? One of the greatest singers ever thankfully got into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame shortly after her passing.
Classic Song‼️ This is one of Linda’s signature song. This performance is🔥🔥. 🤣 That background singer on the left meant what she was singing, “she wasn’t playing no games.” They sound great‼️
The Stone Ponys broke up in 1968. This is the song Linda used to close out her shows on her 4th solo album tour "Don't Cry Now". Linda added it to finish off her 5th solo album in 1974 "Heart Like a Wheel". It was released to radio in November 1974 by February the next year it was in the top 5 of both the R&B chart and the pop/rock chart. It was her first of many smash hits.
Besides talented Linda was very shrewd. Capable of cross over into many markets. This one was 1st recorded by Dionne Warwicks' sister Dee Dee in 63,
Always loved this song but never heard that live version before! Fantastic!!
🔥🔥🔥

@@EmpressReacts 💯🤣
That's Sherlie Matthews. The other lady is Venetta Fields. Both legendary backing singers.
@@tcspur1 💯
This video is great!
The SIMPLICITY of the Seventies! Yeah baby! Mainstream music sucks ass today. We all need hot tub time machines.
E, mos def RBS will post the fact that this song is a remake (and how Linda has done her fair share of covers).✌🏽
...I'm a tad d-runk, but I'm workin' on it! ...ha-HAAA!!
@@RBS_ 🤣 It’s 9am where I’m at. Cheers, nonetheless. 🍸
Midnight Special... Was this the Stone Poneys? Or was she a solo act by then?
The Stone Ponys broke up in 1968. This is the song Linda used to close out her shows on her 4th solo album tour "Don't Cry Now". Linda added it to finish off her 5th solo album in 1974 "Heart Like a Wheel".
