![Eagles - Hotel California (Live 1977) (Official Video) [HD]](/img/n.gif)
I was the video recording engineer for this concert at the Atlanta Civic Center in 1977. After the show, Linda and her band knocked on the door (!) of my little tape truck and asked if they could watch the tape, so they and I sat together and watched the show. Linda is so unassuming and such a beautiful person. I remember talking to Don Grolnick, the piano player, who played the show with a broken hand. It was a great show, and a great memory for me, but I never thought this recording would live on 40+ years later.
What an awesome memory
Wow. Something to be truly cherished!
Thank u for ur contribution. 👍 we, the younger gen. are able to catch glimpse in the past.
I had a Crush on Linda in the 70's. Ironically, I was watching Roy Orbison when this came up. Played Roy & Linda for my Wife and she understood my THEN Crush...
Awesome story and awesome work!!!
Anyone else listening in 2024?
Me
no
Yes ❤
You bet I am!
yep
She has one of the purest voices I’ve ever heard.
Wow....this memory is still fresh in my head. I was the drummer
THAT IS AWESOME! Were you on tour with Linda or just this concert?
A fab memory to have 😊
Whoah! Ur a legend!
Me too! 😮😂
Great job,I'm listening
This was my mom’s favorite song. We lost her 2 years ago today. As she was about to take her final breath, I played this song for her. I miss you so much, Mom!
mine too ❤, i use to get embarrassed when they play it all the time, now im singing 😂🤣🤦🏻♀️
I hear you and I'm sorry. It was one of my Dad's favourites and I lost him a month and a half ago. I play this song from time to time with a pic of him and I feel I connect with him this way somehow. Hope it gets easier for everybody. Regards!
Saludos desde México ❤❤
RIP Mom. ❤
Beautiful
Here in Tucson, client tells me he was a plumber 1980 and was at a house doing his thing and the lady of the house says "Oh, you like my daughters music" he was singing along to music in the background. Was Linda's mother and he was blown away, He has since passed away. Personally saw her in early 1980's in concert. What a special moment.
Linda Ronstadt had the voice and this was HER song. Glad to have lived at the time this musical genius lived, and "Blue Bayou" became a song.
She does absolutely incredible job but Roy Orbison still did it a little bit better. His voice is so haunting and beautiful.
I think this song was written by michael nashmuth of the monkeys

Ca b vionrs de mi padre@@Nipit-po8fl
@@Nipit-po8fl No, it was written by Roy Orbison and Joe Melson, and first performed Roy who had an international hit with it in 1963.
Serious business friends ! It's time to petition the Country Music Hall of Fame to induct Linda Maria Ronstadt while she is still with us. She highly deserves it. Get her in there with members Dolly & Emmylou to complete the Trio while she can enjoy it. Sad that she wasn't there 20 years ago.
OMG I can’t believe she hasn’t been already!
@@CW-ee5ih Linda contributed music to, promoted, and likely brought millions of new fans to the genre. She is highly deserving. One could only wonder but Nashville obviously has a criteria based on something else.
@@sandburgmartin7947, true!
No one can sing 'Blue Bayou' like Linda. She's one of a kind!!
You mean like Roy Orbison
@@thomascoburn5481 or like Norah Jones and M Ward (big fan of Roy's btw).
Sorry but I think Alisan Porter capped it too.
I have just seen a video ( from 2018) by a group called The Linda Ronstadt experience .It aint Linda ...but it sure sounds ( and looks) close to her .
Alison Porter is too nasal. Carrie Underwood...too loud, all belting, crap dynamics.
Her voice still melts me. So amazingly powerful.
Still listening in 2024 to this beautiful and timeless song!
Me too still listening to this song today March 19, 2024,. This is one of my and my sister's favorite songs. Sadly, my sister passed away in 2019 at age 90. I am now 81, the youngest and only living one among six female siblings.
She is an amazing singer, the emotions are always spot on, fabulous!! ❤❤❤ 21/3/2023
Oops, 2024 😂😂
We had the best music back then I truly miss the great music we had
cheers, same here
I get chills down my spine when she starts belting out the chorus. Such a powerful voice.
She's gorgeous.
Ditto...me too...
Truly---
Absolutely! The only performers who come close to her in this song attacks the chorus with genuine feeling and scoops perfectly the note "world" when she sings "and the world is mine." If you can't do these 2 things, then you can't even come close to touching Ms. Ronstadt!
Was so inspired by this, I decided to channel all the misery, pain, and suffering in my life to doing a sax cover of this dedicated to Ms. Ronstadt. Feel free to DISLIKE if you don't like it.
It’s called perfect pitch. It’s a gift that very few singers actually have.
She's the Don Larsen and Boog Powell of chick singers.
If a singer has the gift of perfect pitch, the other musicians can actually tune their instruments to their voice. It is truly extraordinary and very rare.
Not to belabor the point, but perfect pitch will send an immistakeable vibration up your spine. Strange but true
@@CW-ee5ih
She ever sing the Star Spangled Banner on opening day?
It was the summer of 76 in San Francisco and somehow I ended up in the front row gazing up at Linda and man could she sing. I hope she’s surrounded by love. She helped so many great musicians and she’s been such a wonderful person…..she deserves grace 👏👏👏👏
I love how you wrote this. You're an excellent writer. Imagine, forty-seven years ago you saw Linda, and you were able to paint the essence of that youthful night in San Francisco all these years later.
I agree with your opinion and sentiments. One technicality though... you might want to check the definition of grace. It's IMPOSSIBLE to deserve grace. Grace is unmerited favor bestowed. No one can ever earn grace nor ever deserve it. If that was possible, it wouldn't be grace at all. Bless you all. ;-) Peace out.
WOW, WHAT A AMAZING EXPERIENCE! MY aunt also saw Linda Ronstadt in concert in San Francisco. I’m so glad that I grew up listening to good music, thanks to my aunt & uncles as well as my sisters.
no one gives a shit about 50 years ago dude
@@Sherman350Dude, your ignorance is a historical milestone that others of your intellect have circled aimlessly and incessantly through the centuries. STFU.
Linda Ronstadt is simply gorgeous ❤. Smooth as chocolate.
whatchu tryna say? that sound raciss
That voice 4 octave range is something else.
"There are two kinds of men in this world. Those with a crush on Linda Ronstadt and those who never heard of her." - Willie Nelson.
Huh
I worked with a young lady in her late 20’s who looks just like Linda Ronstadt
There are two kinds of men in this world. those who are blinded by her looks and those who are deafened by this song.
I had a crush on her when I was a teen and love this song
@@rinkinkel So you came to the video for more?
Linda's voice mesmerized me from the first time I heard her. The strength of her voice grabbed me and still hasn't let me go for over 40 years. Love her as always.
If I had to name the single most memorable note I've ever heard in any pop song, it would be the final note that Linda Ronstadt hits in "Blue Bayou." To this day, I can still recall my reaction to hearing it for the first time. The 4th, 3rd and 2nd notes from the end, slowly moving up the musical scale, create a huge expectation in the listener for what the final note would be. And then? Wow! Ronstadt delivers and sustains an F#5 in magnificent vocal tone! Bravo!
She's so good. What a great time to be young. How we were blessed as kids. Best music
I'm 71 and couldn't agree more.
agree
So true wish it was still like those good days
Was so inspired by this, I decided to channel all the misery, pain, and suffering in my life to doing a sax cover of this dedicated to Ms. Ronstadt. Feel free to DISLIKE if you don't like it.
Super blessed!
Linda's range is so amazing. You think she won't be able to hold it and bring it back. But she does. No words.
Just beautiful! ❤️
Love this song. ❤️
Was. Unfortunately she has Parkinson’s and can’t sing now.
xy1!kzoztw2drcu
The era where music is PURE...
If this isn't played at my funeral, I'm not going !!!!¡!
That's funny i don't care who you are!
😂😂 hope you won't mind if I steal that one day !
You'll be there for sure!
@@southafrica73 no! I won't
Yep
One of the most beautiful songs ever written.....oh it shouldn't matter but I'm a six four year old black man.i love Linda she's the bomb.
Pure talent. Love her voice in 2024!
I wish she was my baby mama and I'm a black guy.
Love this
❤❤
It doesn't matter, Clarence.
Her voice ranges from a whisper to a belt and what control! One of a kind vocalist. Great song written by Roy Orbison and Joe Melton.
Would have loved to hear her and Orbison perform this song together
@@frankcharlton1234 Hello Frank
Even Roy couldn't sing this as well as Linda
@@tomlokos4303Hard to sing this song’s high notes.
WOW! Now I remember why she was my fav!
There's only 1 Linda Ronstadt and she's got the type of voice that sends chills up your spine in a great way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!¡!
THAT unique American.Country gal voice.
That unique iconic voice....only Linda Ronstadt ♥
Disgusting liberal pig
@@AdmiralDenny what was that about?
@@royestondsouza4069 Obviously about her. What, you don’t understand English?
There's something in her voice that makes my heart melt
May 20 2023 Heard Linda Ronstadt sing this Blue Bayou on the radio working night shift In trucking, All my life was there in this song “Blue Bayou “ Tears we’re shed and Ronstadt delivered most beautiful song! She is absolutely great and one of best all time singers. Her words are clear and you can hear them.
One of the most beautiful, powerful voices ever
Ya
Amen! Saw her in the early ‘70s and in one of her final concerts. Amazing artist, singer, person, and performer.
Doesnt need a half naked costume, dramatic move, or a spinning stage, just give her a mic, a great band, she give you back a wonderful music with her beauitful voice, what a great great great singer, Linda
Amen!!
@@mikeledee8786 Yes! You so nailed it! Too much 'music' now is all theater and no real talent or originality. There was SO MUCH TALENT in those days!
You got that right.
Amen. Those were the days.
And feminine!!!
I’ll never forget, my 11th or 12th English teacher talked about how “Where those fishing boats / With their sails afloat” was a metaphor for seeing the sail, but it representing the whole boat. 45 years ago. Mr. Brimhall had a huge crush on Linda Ronstadt.
🥰
we all did
Mr Brimhall had good taste 😊
Ah yes, metonymy.
I was 12 years old when this gem hit the airways.
My parents had just divorced, and we moved to a new house/neighborhood/school system/...you get my point, and feeling disrupted. Always hoping my parents would reconcile and remake the family I'd hoped we could be.
These melancholy lyrics, singing about "going back some day", just hit home. 💪🏼😆👍🏼🎶🎶🎶🏡
The true test of REAL TALENT. She can do it LIVE!! No studio-created sound, just the most beautiful voice EVER! We love you, Linda.
@Super Sonic she is literally so underrated
One of the most underrated beautiful voices ever
Not many can do that.........
LOVED IT !!! LINDA RHONSTAT'S BEAUTIFUL VOICE WILL TRANSCEND TIME !!!
TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU! I was so inspired by this, I decided to channel all the misery, pain, and suffering in my life to doing a sax cover of this dedicated to Ms. Ronstadt. Feel free to DISLIKE if you don't like it.
One of the greatest voices of the past 50 years and one of the greatest performances in all of popular music.
Hello Statmad
Without a doubt.
absolutely
THE GREATEST
I prefer the version of Paola
Out of all the top notch female vocalists, both past and present, I can't think of anyone who had/has the ability to inject emotion into her singing to the extent that Linda Ronstadt did, She's simply superb!
Her and Carole King
Joplin
Karen carpenter was on same level and (imho) EmmyLou harris isnt far behind either.
@@ApocGuyOh pleeze Carpenter was a grotesque, sour note, thin voiced square who sang schlocky love songs with her creepy brother. Couldn't perform live. Not in RONSTADT's vocal universe- in fact such a comparison is a bit of a slur.
Adorable too
Incredible command of her voice. Not many singers can deliver live as consistently as Linda did.
In my view, no one could touch Linda in her day, and no one can now. Of course there are other great female vocalists who can belt out a power ballad (Christina, Whitney, Mariah etc.) but Linda had something special, something the others lack: Restraint. She could raise the power level when melody demanded, but could convey emotion quietly when volume wasn't called for. Her voice was always controlled, but beautiful to listen to. She was, and always will be, one of the greats. And in her humbleness and honesty, a star.
Amen I couldn't have said it any better !
Thank you very much !!! 😀😀😀😀😀😀 !
Eloquently stated!
Dont forget Melanie safka ;)
David Phillips well said.
Can people stop putting Mariah Carey in the category with these ladies. At one point she was screaming now, she’s just whispering. That’s not singing. This is.
My father served in the Navy during WWII and spent some time in Hawaii after fighting on Iwo Jima. He loved this song because it reminded him of the island. I had it played at his funeral. 🌊 🌺 🍍 🎶 I miss you Daddy........
Nancy, so sorry about your dad. God is recalling all His good people. My mom went home 8 years ago and I still miss her immensely. May God sustain you in these hard times.
Your dad is a treasure and I'm proud to be American and thankful for what he did! I was so inspired by this, I decided to channel all the misery, pain, and suffering in my life to doing a sax cover of this dedicated to Ms. Ronstadt. Feel free to DISLIKE if you don't like it.
He’s back there… 🏝
Thank you for the story about your dad! A real hero! Thanks
Thank you for sharing. Very touching.
I can die now. I've seen and heard the most beautiful thing that ever existed.
Otherworldly talent. Brings me to tears. Salute to Linda Rondstat 🔥🐐🙌👏❤️🙏
The way she hits that last note-tough one to get right- SLAYS me. Awesome.
absolute magic,Anne !!!!! hair on my back goes up right there..........
literally just replayed just that closing verse 8 times. She added a quick, "in-between" note just before the high note that made an incredible lick even more delightful. she probably just felt it at the moment. sheer talent.
Have you heard "I Can't Get Over You" off Duets? Great song.
I'm in love with her.
@@sabbracadabra8367 Get in line,Sabbra...................
Just love how she begins, low and controlled and the audience whistling and calling out. Then she opens the pipes and you hear absolute silence from them until she ends her final note. They were entranced as we all were whenever Ms. Ronstadt sang. Captivating.
They were enthralled, captivated, mesmerized, pretty amazing
TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU! I was so inspired by this, I decided to channel all the misery, pain, and suffering in my life to doing a sax cover of this dedicated to Ms. Ronstadt. Feel free to DISLIKE if you don't like it.
Saxo it's been too long since I visited this beautiful performance. I saw your post and checked out your rendition and you crushed it my brother! How could one possibly dislike you having so much fun while bringing joy to others with your passion for music. Play on sir, play on!
The era when vocal artists actually had talent. I miss those days.
possibly the best singing performance ever.
What a Voice and that song should go down on everyone’s top 5 list of all time.
The best singers have pain in their voice. This is one of the songs that make me cry every time I hear it.
Yeees... Very nice song
ie... Karen Carpenter
Me too.
Try singing it. Not in public or in front of other people. You can do it.. with the possible exception of that last goddamned note!
@@hectorcosta7951 YES INDEED !
One of the greatest songs ever recorded!
Love her. Greatest voice ever. Charming person. So sad that she lost the ability to perform. God Bless you Linda.
Linda is linda always the best
One of the most beautiful songs in history, and she OWNED that song.
Neither of them owned it but they both interpreted it in their inimitable ways. The versions are both great, just different.
Linda owned every song that she ever sang.
@Voracious Reader somewhere out therre
Beautiful voice but lousy politics.
She sure did
She is so humble..That Lady has a Voice of Pure SILK..
She is one of the best singers that i have ever heard her voice is just beautiful and this song is just amazing 😄
Another amazing thing about this cut is the backup singers. If you listen close you can hear them. It’s the mark of a classic, cant be faked
Blue Bayou + linda Ronstadt = Perfection.
AMEN !
Linda Ronstadt is in a class all her own.
Almost. She shares it with Roy Orbison.
You guys had cool music. I'm in love with this woman, hard to believe they used to make em like that.
Hello
Only 1 person can sing this son, Linda.
My mother (who died in 2000, 6 weeks after my daughter was born) just *LOVED* this song. Despite the opinion of the preacher, we insisted playing this song during the funeral in the church. Rest in Peace Mom, your son and grand daughter...
may you find peace love doesn,t stop
Amen 🙏
Goog on ya, She was the best ever, never caught, never beaten never to be overtaken
Hmmmm... is there any anti religiuos ancle?
As a former missonary & preacher, let me say it: F*** that preacher. This is musical heaven, and that preacher will never know how wonderful this is.
Patsy and Linda. Two best female singers of all time.
Don't forget Karen Carpenter
No auto tune, no back up dancers, no flashy lights, no twerking. Just good music. I wish we could go back in time
Yes!!
Just the purity of that amazing voice like no other.
Your so right
Yep . . . That’s why I keep coming to watch and listen.
U bet, as in Susan Boyal " I dream a dream"
Beautiful song , perfectly sung by a beautiful woman
talent
The Lord Blessed Us with Linda.
What a pure natural voice!
The clearest, sweetest, and at the same time most powerful voice that has ever existed.
WOW what a powerful voice!!She was amazing.
I never listened to her before. Her voice is absolutely beautiful, amazing so rich and powerful
U should hear her sing in Spanish ❤❤❤
She gets too shouty in the chorus for my liking. She has a great voice but no need to shout.
She always appears shy.Then she starts singing.Wow love her
Deeply haunting voice. Hearing her live was transformational. Love isn't enough to describe our devotion to Ronstadt.
It still gives me chills to hear it even after all these years
Yes.
Stunning.
The planet had a broken hand! Wow!
I was 5 in 1977 when this song came out and I remember having a crush on Linda Ronstadt; today I'm a happily married 51 year old man I and still do. It's so easy to fall in love with such beautiful talent.
Linda Ronstadt had unmatched vocal clarity and a big warm sound that sound engineers still marvel at. Finally and forever, live on stage or in the recording studio, she is my favorite female vocalist.
V
Stan R and pure pitch
Mine too !!!
Wonderful comment... DITTO
Very special.
The best female singer of all time. So sad she can't sing anymore. I think of her often and it breaks my heart.
A unique talent they dont come much better than Linda Ronstadt a true gem
Uh.. no. You really can't say the best of all time. But she is one of the best.
Top 10
I think of her often too. I lived in Tucson for 20 years, and Linda is a Tucson homegirl. The main city bus depot in DT Tucson is named "Ronstadt Center." Not because of Linda, but her dad. Her brother used to be on the city council, don't know if he still is, I left Tucson 4 years ago. Linda is altruistic, donating to Casa De Los Ninos, a home for children in Tucson who need help. She also donated to restore the Rialto in DT Tucson. Linda still rocks even if she most unfortunately can't sing anymore. :(
@Cynthia Dickerson: A ridiculous response. Clearly some singers are better than others, and opera singers by definition are in the first ranks.
Linda Ronstadt + Roy Orbison = maybe the most perfect American Song ever written. The first three notes, played only by the bass guitar, and the audience knows exactly what it is .....
Were we just simple folk? The magic in just a pair of jeans….a true soul can shine thru without all the kitsch. 💕 love you Linda!
Always absolutely loved her voice
Ya, you’re just like my dad, she is just too super awesome, which of her songs you like listening too?
@@palominokyla7155 this one is definitely my favorite by her. She was gorgeous!
pound for pound the greatest female vocalist of her generation - Stunning! And never bigger than the song, she has everything, the tone the power and its easy to overlook her fantastic technical ability because she uses it to serve the song and not showcase her own considerable virtuosity
MY FOREVER SONG!!!! This was my stepdads song. I can still remember & hear his voice so clearly telling me … “EVERY-TIME YOU HEAR THIS SONG, YOU WILL REMEMBER ME FOREVER.”
Greatest female singer as far as I'm concerned.
And Maria McKee (Lone Justice)
Linda and band mates are truly timeless- it’s 2022- I’m 72 and still love this.
Am 67yrs and still love linda's music too
41 ❤
Got you all beat. I'm 73 and still love this girl. Sad to see her voice has left her, but her memories will last forever
@@jp-mc2bp my friend am 67 and fallin in love with her too at the age of 12yrs it is 55yrs in love with judith durham too she left us with lovely music but her spirit is with us too

Sounds so clean clear crisp as it did then.... now that's how you carry a note!!!

My gosh, I adore this beautiful chanteuse! I’m 70 years old, and I still get goosebumps when I listen to her sing!! I will love her forever!!❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊
Got cha beat. Im 80 and i feel the same
Takes me way back too
Linda Ronstadt is one of the best lady singers from all time. She and Blue Bayou always make me cry. She and this song are both beyond compare.
Gorgeous in ways us mere mortals can only dream about. There is something about the warmth, purity and sadness in her voice that just takes you in. Even when she belts the natural beauty of her sound is sustained. Her critics, there have been a few who stalked her like spurned lovers, have been proven to be fools and her devoted admirers have been vindicated. Perhaps the finest female vocalist of the rock and roll era. An intriguing and elusive superstar. Wishing her peace and joy.
+mannythanx Amen! She's one of the very few who can handle both sensitive, delicate lines and big, torch-singer lines.
To my mind, only Karen Carpenter challenges Linda. Karen had a different kind of brilliance: more wistful and vulnerable. I can't choose between them.
+Daniel Gunter Ronstadt's repertoire, voice and legacy is broad and in a class of her own. To each their own but Carpenter was a limited cornball crooner. Nothing against her personally and her odd demise but she couldn't shine Linda's boots.
+zane blast I don't think that you've paid enough attention to Karen Carpenter.
Whitney yt? further tree at mom nikKi jjRruyikktjhjjtvbbhki no
+Daniel Gunter Karen is awesome too, but she and Linda are completely kind of singers.
And this, boys and girls, is how you own a stage. No hype, no flash, just pure artistry.
Imagine, back in the day, Linda could personally sing you asleep... GOOD GOD!!!
This was my mom’s song!!! She would sing it in every Karaoke session. Naturally - I learned it thoroughly from watching her and she would even let me sing some lines at karaoke too. When she passed away - I thought I’d be able to sing it without any problems at all… boy I was soo wrong… after the first few lines, my tears won’t stop falling… I couldn’t even make it to the chorus and had to excuse myself from everyone in the karaoke session we were having coz I was already crying and sobbing…. I remembered the heartbreak trying to sing this song again after my mom died… BUT - it’s been been more than a decade now and i’m able to sing it again - tears still fall from time to time and I can still feel my heart ache longing for my mom - but then I always just try and think “ah will she like it? I hope she does”. I always dedicate it to her memory every time I sing it. I love you and I miss you mom!!! 💜🕊️
Pinup with killer pipes. Great bands, great songs. Linda was always much more than just the hits. Superb talent.
THE VOICE of her generation. Queen of Her Scene. Come back Linda, we are waiting.
Man listened to her songs on radio during the 70s and 80s .one of a kind
Thank You very much Linda Ronstadt peace and love from us all ❤
She knows heartbreak...I’m so sorry you lost your gift. You’re a true legend- so appreciative and humble. Thank you 🙏
Still there just too timid to sing... still immaculate!!!!
Most of us NEVER had it............still makes her Spectacular.....................
Most gifts pass. Hers lasted longer than many and she seemed to appreciate it everyday.
You hear that? Not a single second was auto-tune used. Linda is a singer, in every sense of the word.
What is auto-tune?
@@brianb8569 That's what you took away from my comment, the fact that there is a hyphen?
Yes Sir..!! AGREED!!
Auto-tune hadn’t been invented when this song was recorded
Indeed. Her voice is authentic. She is the real deal - never created a persona - Linda was always Linda.
This beautiful young lady sang those incredible songs from the 70s, later 0peratta, wonderful songs from her heritage then did that album of classic old standards etc... who the Hell can do that nowadays? My all-time fave is her on Johnny Carson back in the 80s singing "When You Wish Upon a Star" while sitting on a huge slightly swaying half moon!.. Thank you, Linda...
There are not many female singers that I can say, that every album she recorded was a gem.
The Spanish albums included, like
" Canciones de Mi Padre"...
I really recommend to listen to that album too...
(Por Un Amor and Hay Unos Ojos... blew me away...such great beauty in her voice)
She's one of my faves, and always will be.
I'm just trying to make the conection between the person singuing english and spanish after soooo many years, never know she sang in spanish !!!!!!!!!
im gonna check those out, thanks
@@georgeanguiano9937 She has Spanish roots in her family.
She is the best
@@georgeanguiano9937 She comes from a Spanish-speaking family! Her father Gil owned the local hardware store in Tucson, AZ. His family moved to Arizona from Mexico before Linda was born. She grew up with the music she sang on Canciones Por Mi Padre.
Her voice was born for hi-fidelity Vinyl. In person damn fine as well.
Loving the fact that I'm old enough to appreciate stuff like this.
We've had amazing music to get us through
I agree
My 14 year old granddaughter loves this song. ☺
Whoever sees my comment I hope you happy life. Only if you knew how important you are to the world
The most beautiful thing ever. I melted hearing it again 😂
43 year old Chicano from East LA, never knew a song like this could take my breath away. All the romanticism and power of love of landscape and community come across in instrumental and vocals. I see why this was a hit. Dios Mio Linda, me quitaste el respiro con esta rola! Viva Linda Rondstadt!
blue jeans, smokey eyes, heart slaying melodies from that magnificent voice.,,,,,,AAAAHHHHHHH.....LINDA!!!!!
You either got it or you don't. And boy she had it. Divine pipes. No one sings like this now and truth is no one came close back then either. A lead singer to die for.
My Dad absolutely loved Linda Ronstadt. So talented. Beyond. 💙💙💙💙
