    Dolly & Emmylou went to Country Music Hall of Fame in 1999 & 2000 respectively. CMHF needs to induct Linda while we can all celebrate with and for her. She earned it both musically and by promoting & bringing many more fans to the genre. It would also put the TRIO in a permanent place of honor. Come on Nashville, it's the right thing to do!

    And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how it's done. Three of the greatest voices EVER, being backed up by some world-class musicians. Can't ask for much more. I was so glad that Carson gave them the chance to do three songs so each of them could take the lead on one song. I miss him. Those who THINK they are taking his place are just extremely poor pretenders.

    All 3 are great with their own special talents. But I must say, Linda Ronstadt is the greatest, most diverse female vocalist of her generation.

    That they are contemporaries and managed to collaborate is PHENOMINAL.

      Linda MAKES us feel our feelings with her singing. Couple that with memories of life events around the song or her era of singing and the eye sprinklers can turn on. Whether happy or sad tears there's not a darn thing wrong with that either, just being a human.

    Watch Linda, her right hand and the microphone.
    She does this in all live shows on video out there.
    She is every so subtly moving the mic up down left and right to perfectly position it for the vocal at that time. 1/8th inch here, 1/4 inch there.
    Few singers have ever done this.
    A true master of her craft.

    Growing up, I always thought I was too intelligent, sophisticated, and had better taste than to listen to, much less enjoy, country music. Then came Trio and my arrogance was shattered.

      Old country music is awesome though! Anyone can enjoy 40s-60s country classics

    Linda is by far the best singer in this trio but is just blissing out on the harmonies. Love that woman! Lol

      "Blissing out"...now that's a phrase that's going to enter my vocabulary!
      Ms. Ronstadt gave us everything she had and then some. Just wish she could still sing with her friends.
