    This album, Canciones de Mi Padre, was released in 1987 and still stands as the best selling non-English language record in US music history. Whatever she touched turned to gold.

    Linda has a stupendously powerful voice.

    Linda Ronstadt is one of the best female singers & can sing any genre from ballads to country to rock & even opera. She has Mexican heritage on her dad's side. Growing up she listened to many types of music, including Mexican music, which was sung by her entire family. She does a great job singing in Spanish. I have her Spanish album called "Canciones de Mi Padre (Spanish for "Songs of My Father"). Sadly she has progressive supranuclear palsy & can no longer sing a note.

      I have always liked L R and when I learned she has a Mexican background and listen to her singing I'm on cloud NINE!!

  • @jimmcevers9443
    @jimmcevers9443 Год назад +31

    The song is from her album "Canciones de Mi Padre" released in 1987 and was a huge crossover hit. "La Charreada" is from the same record. There's not a style she can't do!!

  • @jwichman9
    @jwichman9 Год назад +8

    She is singing from her roots. This is what she was born to sing. I love all her songs but this is what she loves. And this is why we love her.

  • @steveshute3810
    @steveshute3810 Год назад +20

    Her voice is exquisite and unparalleled. It's so great watching her smile and have so much fun with these Spanish-language songs. There are other excellent videos from that same old broadcast on YT.

  • @shorty9617
    @shorty9617 Год назад +11

    I think we respond because she is clearly so invested in her father's culture/her Mexican heritage. It comes across as joyful and authentic. Plus, the costumes and setting and band are gorgeous.

  • @boosuedon

    She’s amazing. Everything she’s ever sung is top shelf. I love this entire show. Mariachi is simply beautiful. Powerful and goes straight to the heart…and feet.

    I grew up in Southern California and there was always Mariachi music in the backround of my life. I love hearing Linda singing with this band. Her album "Canciones de mis padres" is amazing. My Spanish is very rusty and limited, but I totally enjoy the whole album whether I understand the lyrics or not.

    The joy on your face when Ms Ronstadt holds those notes is like a child getting an unexpected present. Glad you liked this video as well as La Charreada. Wait for her performance in Pirates of Penzance and the Nelson Riddle albums.

    • @jwichman9

    "Blue Bayou" definitely worth a listen. If you're going to cover a Ray Orbison classis, you better have a voice like Linda's.

  • @andyb7942
    @andyb7942 Год назад +12

    I think what you are referring to is what I will call the "catch" in her voice where she changes note - is to me one of her signature talents, and is one of many ways she excellently conveys emotions in her vocals. She sings in pretty much every genre known, from country, to pop, new wave, folk, hard rock, opera, etc. Top Linda choices from me: (1) video of her signing live in studio to "Lose Again" - one of her all-time best emotional vocals; (2) "Different Drum" - studio version of her first big hit in 1967; (3) her signing live to "Long, Long Time" on any TV shows from 1970 or so; and (4) her singing/playing guitar live to "It Don't Matter Anymore" from a 1977 concert I think.

  • @joelmoreno4223
    @joelmoreno4223 Год назад +2

    I'm an old guy, so I really like her recordings with the Nelson Riddle orchestra, singing the 'Great American Songbook' standards, one of my favorites: "But Not For Me". But, FYI: she has done almost everything: pop, rock, country, standards, R&B, Broadway, Mexican (in honor of her father and grandfather, and to honor her ancestry), and she's excelled at everything.
    She has earned 11 Grammy Awards, three American Music Awards, two Academy of Country Music awards, an Emmy Award, and an ALMA Award. Many of her albums have been certified gold, platinum or multiplatinum in the US and internationally. She has also earned nominations for a Tony Award and a Golden Globe award. She was awarded the Latin Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award by the Latin Recording Academy in 2011, and also awarded the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award by the Recording Academy in 2016. She was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in April 2014, and on July 28, 2014, she was awarded the US National Medal of Arts and Humanities. In 2019 Ronstadt was among five honorees who received the Kennedy Center Honors for lifetime artistic achievements.

    It’s so cool to see someone who, like you said, doesn’t listen to this music really ever, and really “understand” it in its pure essence!! I have, since I was 5 years old, been enthralled with mariachi and ranchera, and have known its majesty practically all my life! It’s is my heritage. I’ve always wished others around the world, especially our American neighbors, could see its beauty. To see others on the “outside” understand it and not be able to put it fully into words…! Truly incredible to witness. Thanks for posting. Viva la música Mexicana!! 🇲🇽

    I was lucky to see her live during this tour (Canciones de mi Padre) and Yes - it was as great as you think it would be. - with Mariachi Vargas no less (considered the premier Mariachi Band it the world :-D She grew up listening to canciones rancheras so it just comes natural to her.

    She was country rock/pop for a good number of albums but then moved on to some other genres. "You're No Good" and "Back in the U.S.A." come to mind as a couple of her rock/pop hits from the '70's.

    As I always assert, Linda has the most beautiful voice on the planet. There’s nobody with vocals as powerful while retaining the welcoming sweetness she puts forth. I have learned that Mariachi music is extremely difficult to perform and she worked very hard to do it perfectly. Sooo good! I would recommend this beautiful live performance of “Down So Low”ruclips.net/video/D7gCtCWxTYo/видео.html. It is so soulful and heartfelt you will feel it deep inside. Thanks for appreciating this stunningly talented artist. 🌺✌️

  • @MissLibertarian
    @MissLibertarian 9 месяцев назад +1

    This musical style requires the singer to sing the meaning (and enunciate) and the feeling (drams and emotion), and you can see how it gave her a solo career as a singer in all the other genres ithat began her career. To have listened to this style in childhood set her up to be able to hold the attention of an audience. It was difficult to be a singer in rock and other genres unless you were able to bring additional talent like composing to it (especially for females), but she could, and once you can do that composers are thrilled to supply great songs.

  • @bryanCJC2105
    @bryanCJC2105 Год назад +2

    She made two Spanish "Rancheras" albums with mariachi.
    1. "Cancionés dé mí Padre". 1987
    2. "Más cancionés". 1991
    La Cigarra is on album #1 track #4.
    These were songs her father loved and she grew up listening to. Possibly her best albums due to vocalizing, tradition, melodies and studio mix sonic quality. Look into them, you'll love e'm.

    You should watch her documentary, Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice. It shows her learning each Spanish phrase with Ruben Blades to know exactly how to make it perfect. She's done rock, country, r&b, opera, spanish, jazz, pop, and the Great American Songbook with Nelson Riddle (famous for producing Frank Sinatra). My favorite video is the live 1977 performance of Desperado with just her and a piano. Sadly, she can no longer sing now due to Parkinson's Disease.

    I would study the lyrics in Spanish.
    I learned vocabulary, translations (Spa/Eng), and would imagine the stories told. The songs would tell about love, betrayal, travels, adventures, and even death.
    My mom would notice it and would say that the songs were inppropriate for me.
