She really lives and breathes her music, she was never manufactured like some of our new singers. Loved her since I first discovered her in 1974 and no one has surpassed her.
My two cents... I think she is an artist who thinks and speaks in terms that come naturally within her way of thinking but it doesn’t translate super well into everyday language. I also sense that like a lot of bright people that their thoughts come faster than they can express in everyday language. She’s a singer and not a songwriter. From other interviews I’ve gotten the sense that her “paint brush” was how she crafted other people’s words and melodies into a performance. Apparently she was quite a perfectionist and did a lot of takes. An interview doesn’t let her go back and try to phrase her answer in another way.
Linda has written several songs but she claims it wasn't her forte. Good songs too. Being a perfectionist in music is a good thing in my opinion. She used all the best musicians and spared no cost. As a result her recordings from 1972 forward are timeless. There is nothing wrong with this interview. It is nice to see someone excited about her craft and knowing Aaron he was more than happy to let Linda do all the talking.
@@waynewilliams8554 She's written another book recently (2022), "Feels like home." A nostalgic trip to the the Sonora desert. I found the book a disappointment, though.
I was an elementary school teacher, and Ms. Ronstadt talks like a child obsessed by a personal interest-they'll talk fir as long as you let them. I mean this in the most complimentary way. Whether her interviews are in-person or in-print, the words about music and the people that make it just pour out of her. I remember in an earlier appearance on Carson, Johnny goes for a laugh by letting his eyes glaze over as she is expounding on the roots of rock and roll. I think you're right that in a talk-show setting such as this, it can feel a little awkward to the audience, who might not want to get down "into the weeds" like her devoted fan do. For us, we wish she were the only guest on the show!

Her ear for music is God given. She is way more than a little 5 foot 2 girl looking pretty at a microphone.
WOW had no idea she was that short
Teresa Gib hank. Snow g rose
.Ok
It wasn't difficult to interview Linda. She easily takes over the show and upstages everbody. Cool girl!
she should write a book about the evolution of genre and sound
I would love to read that!
She did "Simple Dreams".

Johnny keeps on cutting into her when she responds.
I love Linda, but her interviews are often kind of strange. I think she just gets nervous.
i don't see anything strange in her interviews. That's how deep and passionate people answer when asked about music.
