    Jeez, that voice is so sweet and powerful. Back when music didn't require autotune.

    For anyone who doesn't know about the success that Linda had, check out her wikipedia page. It's a long read, but there's a reason for that, it's required to relay all the information necessary. You'll be absolutely amazed at what she accomplished during her career.

      No long read necessary. Just listen to the many songs still on the net! She may not be singing in the 2020s, but her body of work transforms her into a much beloved living legend.

    My first crush on a woman. I still love watching her. That voice gives me chills. Her band was a true Supergroup, with Andrew Gold as the multi-purpose guitarist, singer, arranger, genius, and Kenny Edwards. Dan Dugmore, etc, No wonder it sounds so great. The bands from this time, like the Eagles and Linda's band, would take a basic chord progression and arrange/layer so many counter melodies, and then harmonize 3 to 4 parts vocal harmonies - some of my favorite music.

    Slamming. Takes a sweet tune, from her pals the Everly Brothers, and creates a landmark Country Rockin' blast. Takes her dear friend, Lowell George' s, trucker song and turns it into a classic road tune for anyone who is itinerant. Linda...no sweat, no pretentious BS just a glorious set of pipes and the devoted boys in her band.

      me too. I got to see her live in April of 1972 with the backing band that replaced Glenn, Don, Randy and Bernie. The new band was Richard and Mike Bowden, Mickey McGee and Ed Black...all great musicians. Linda always managed to hire the best musicians to back her up. Good move because quality music is timeless.

    Watched every Linda Ronstadt performance on "The Midnight Special" and then got to see her live in concert at the U. of Toledo's Centennial Hall in Aug. 1978, just a month before the release of her album, "Living In the USA." The split screen at 0:22 shows guitarist Andrew Gold (top) and bassist Kenny Edwards who, sadly, have both passed on.

    AWESOME!!! Linda and her band live is as good or better than the recorded version. Sadly some of the band is no longer with us; Kenny Edwards, Andrew Gold but they certainly left their marks and are not forgotten. Wonder why Willin' wasn't mentioned in the title here? I always thought it should have been released as a single but drugs weren't politically correct around that time so airplay may have become a problem.
    Review from Dowell De Los Reyes of I Heart(Love) Classic Rock:
    There’s not on one occasion that famed singer Linda Ronstadt sung a cover song without it included amongst the best. Being the magnificent singer that she is, she managed to make renditions to different songs, all taking bits and pieces, and created a version all on her own. There’s no doubt about the magnificent prowess of this singing queen.
    Among the many highlights of her career is this 1975 performance of hers inside the popular TV show The Midnight Special, which ran during the 70s and the early 80s. Ronstadt proved to everybody what she’s capable of, as she sang a version of Everly Brothers’ hit “When Will I Be Loved?” The song was also included inside the singer’s Heart Like A Wheel album and managed to score a spot at the Billboard Hot 100, placing on no. 2.
    Inside the performance, we can hear the full voice of Ronstadt in harmony with her backing voice, Andrew Gold and Kenny Edwards. The trio’s vocal mellifluence was cleanly observed here, and we can take a ponder on Ronstadt’s greatness as a vocalist.
