It could be argued that if it were not for Linda Ronstadt, there likely would not be The Eagles.
And John Boylan, her manager.
That is absolutely correct. A few of them are backing her up. The eagles have always said she was a big part
On the money my man
The Midnight Special was the best - you had to be good - no studio hijinks, no auto play.
Or Jackson Brown
Her "Blue Bayou" is simply outstanding. Thank you gentlemen, enjoy your work
Linda was the only female artist in the 70s that could sell out stadiums!!!!!
I wouldn't say the "only' but no one else could do it as consistently or as universally as her.
Cannot believe that there are Americans that do not know this great singer
Saw this woman in concert twice … saw her on Broadway, as well. I was one of the many star-struck mopes who loved her!
Please delve into the Linda Ronstadt rabbit hole. You will not be disappointed. She has an incredible voice and wow's everyone. She can sing anything and do it better than the original singers...much to their chagrin.
Yes, her cover versions of tracks of my tears, desperado, Tumblin dice, heat wave, ooo baby baby, and countless other songs sound so great!
A songwriter's champion. "Writers would crawl on broken glass to have Ronstadt wrap those pipes around their tunes". Some songs, like this, she rescued from the oldies jukebox - other songs were exposing new songwriters of the era like Zevon, Lowell George, Karla Bonoff, Henley and Frey, and Elvis Costello among others. Linda was a very special songbird.
Fantastic range, resonant, powerful, skilled singer.
Linda also helped Don Henley and Glenn Frey before they formed the Eagles...they played backup for Linda.
Everything she touched..., every genre, every collaboration turned to gold. The first lady to sell out stadium concerts, Linda Ronstadt is one of the most respected singers in all of music. Do yourselves a favor and follow the suggestions for future reactions. She mastered it all.
Linda is one of the best vocalists ever!!!
You MUST listen to more of her!!!!
Linda Ronstadt is one of the best female singers & can sing any genre from ballads to country to rock & even opera. She has had so many hits such as "Different Drum", "When Will I Be Loved", "Long, Long Time", "Poor Poor Pitiful Me", "Desperado" etc. Ronstadt also did two great duets, "Somewhere Out There" (with James Ingram) & "Don't Know Much" (with Aaron Neville). The Eagles were her backing band till they went out on their own & she has covered a lot of their songs. Also love her collaborations with Dolly Parton & Emmylou Harris.
Don’t forget her other great duet with Aaron, ‘All My Life’.
She seemed to do a number of duets with Aaron Neville for an album she released in 1989, "Cry Like a Rainstorm, Howl Like the Wind". One duet I like off of that is their rendition of "When Something Is Wrong with My Baby".
And is still, to this day, has the best selling non English album in history of US, her Spanish language album.
I love that you guys are hearing this song for the first time!! A teen in the 70s, this song is FIRE! Thanks guys!
You will be crushed by Linda's ballads: Blue Bayou, Long Long Time, Hurt So Bad, Tracks of my Tears (cover), etc
Midnight Special when I was a teenager meant you always had entertainment on Friday nights 😁
One of the great voices of all time
Whether it's a cover song or not, when Ronstadt sings it, it's hers. I love Desperado and Blue Bayou the most. Thanks, guys.
Linda is the GOAT
Only the greatest female vocalist ever!
My fav artist of all time! Dolly Parton said of Linda..."Linda can sing anything!" And she's not wrong!
Linda paved the way for many other female artists to follow. A part of true Americana. Well, damn.
Imagine not really hearing of Linda Ronstadt, then hearing her sing live on a TV show, without autotune, and still underestimating her. She’s not just a true artist, she’s a legend.
I had such a crush 😍 on Linda in the 70's!!!😊
About 99% of the teenage boys in America, I was one of them!
One of my fave female vocalists
That's an all star band right there. Andrew Gold on guitar - he was a regular guitarist and arranger with Linda as well as a solo artist. On the drums is Richie Hayward, regular drummer for Little Feat. On the congas is Skunk Baxter, guitarist with both Steely Dan and the Doobie Bros. Kenny Edwards was Linda's regular bassist and did session work with a dozen other artists.
Check out the studio version, it has a different vibe but it's still a banger.
I wondered if that was Skunk, it certainly looked like him. I was just surprised to see Skunk, a great guitarist, on congas.
@@stevedietrich8936I know, right?! Me too. I was like, Skunk?! Nah. Sure enough...🤷🏻♂️
Dream band if I ever heard one goes to show you how much they respected her.
I saw video one time of Skunk taking over the drum kit at Doobie Bros concert while Keith Knudsen was singing the encore.
Don't forget Clydie King and Sherlie Matthews singing backup.
Gents, this doesn't even scratch the tip of the surface of her voice. Her older stuff when she started out with Stone Poneys is legendary. She's the main reason The Eagles got their big break too.
God sent Linda Ronstadt down to Earth to cover every song ever written and show everybody exactly how it's done.
My college roommate had that Farrah Fawcett poster on the wall. I had Linda's.
The lovely Linda no one can touch her, she was one of the top female artists of the 70's and 80's, she did this live, no auto tune artists don't perform like this anymore. She was a pure musical genius who explored multiple musical genres and was a smashing success in all of them!
Linda was an amazing singer. Great songs.
She is the GOAT imho. The diversity of her body of work will never be duplicated.
She just loved to sing.
Icon and Legend
I am 71 years old and still have a crush on one of the GREATEST female voices of all time! 😎❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Oh yeah the Eagles where her back up band, before she gave them her blessing for going on by themselves!
Me too, still crushing on her
Willie Nelson once said that if you were a guy and you weren't at least a little in love with Linda, there was something wrong with you.
The pride of Tucson, Arizona. ¡Viva, Linda!
It's really hard to get a good idea of the breadth of Linda's talent by listening to one song. Linda is one of the greatest vocalists in popular music of all time. I had the great honor to see her not long before she retired and she was incredible.
Clydie King on backing vocals. Andrew Gold on Lead guitar. Linda surrounded herself with the very best musicians LA had to offer. She could sing anything, quite literally.
Tustoned Az, She's all we got, Her and Jerry Brown, years, ago, Love Willen❤
And now you two? Linda rockef the 70’d soooo hard
Linda owned the 70s and you will never be disappointed with any of her songs. She’s as fabulous live as in the studio! ❤ The Eagles started out as backup for Linda and she helped them get started…I believe that was Andrew Gold playing guitar with her on the performance.
That guitar player is a late friend of mine named Andrew Gold who had a great career himself. Thank You For Being a Friend which was later the theme for The Golden Girls.
One of the best showcases of Linda's range and power is Blue Bayou. The live performances on the internet are unbelievably good. Her voice could fill up the arenas she played.
A true queen of music, and the most versatile voice, man or woman we’ve ever seen. I have been praying for the day when I see you react to something by her she was never a songwriter, but a great song interpreter and if you do the Rolling Stones Tumbling Dice and then right after it do Linda’s version you’ll be amazed. Tom Petty is great and I love his song “the waiting” but Her version is the best version I’ve ever heard, even including Tom’s. I feel the same way about Elvis Costello‘s song “Alison” and Linda’s version
This younger generation sure are missing out. Thank God for these reaction channels. The best music is from Linda's time
Blue Bayou is a MUST!! Silver Threads and Golden Needles is another good one to check out. You should also check out LA Charreda. Her voice is simply amazing.
I didn't know these were cover songs. She is so good.
I remember watching this! I used to watch Midnight Special every Friday night at 12am!
Linda Ronstadt is a legend. Her voice was amazing. You definitely need to do more of her.
She knocks your socks off!
Oh my! I love her. You should experience "Faithless Love". Sublime.
Really liked the history and bio of the artist.
My daughter sang this at a high school talent show several years ago. She got a huge applause! It's a great song and Linda Ronstadt is so talented. She's been dealing with an extended illness the last few years and had to give up performing. Hope you react to more of her stuff and her early band, Stone Poneys. She sent many men's hearts aflutter in her day!
Love this love version of this song. The band was amazing, and Linda killed it. Check out Blue Bayou by Linda as well. You can see why she is an amazing artist.
Her live version of Desperado is amazing and also Willin' is a great live performance.
Willin. OMG
"A Different Drum" is one of my favorites of hers, she was definitely a giant in the 60's and 70's.
*"Different Drum"
2 of the founding members or The Eagles were in Linda's first band, the Stone Poneys, Glen Frye and Don Henley. I first saw her when I was in the 4th grade in Tombstone AZ. Her high school choir Catalina HS from Tucson was touring Arizona schools doing concerts. She sang two solos, she's the reason they were touring. She was incredible live.
Make no mistake, this was her song after she recorded it.
The guitar player is a man named Andrew Gold. You may have heard Thank you for being a friend? He wrote and sang that one. Lonely Boy was another hit he had in the mid 70's both are worth a listen!!!!!!!
Yes, it is VERY fair to say that Linda Ronstadt is absolutely the artist with the most hits that were cover songs. Her artistry is her powerhouse vocals and style and how she took many lesser known songs and made them her own. She takes the cake with the most (thirteen total) Hot 100 hits (almost all in the Top 40) that were all cover tunes: “Blue Bayou”, “Heat Wave”, “Hurt So Bad”, “I Can’t Let Go”, “It's So Easy”, “Just One Look”, “Ooh Baby Baby”, “Poor Poor Pitiful Me”, “That'll Be The Day”, “Tracks Of My Tears”, “Tumbling Dice”, “When Will I Be Loved” and “You're No Good”.
Check out her other stuff and chart history. In addition to the above she had many other hits and success in Latin/Mariachi music (she is part Mexican), Big Band (American Song Book) and country of course. But she made her name with rock covers and is responsible for forming a little band tiny rock band known as the Eagles.
You have to check out Linda's version of Desperado, also recorded by the Eagles. Both great, but Linda's rendition, the female perspective gives it an emotional ache. Beautiful to boot!
Linda. An awesome voice and heartthrob of the '70s. I can attest.
No one did it better! Her Spanish language music is also phenomenal!!
An amazing thing about Linda is how she stretched herself as an artist, she could have easily stuck with the formula but she fought to record an album of standards with Nelson Riddle which was highly successful and turned into a trio of albums - she then recorded an album of Mexican songs that were favorites of her father - also highly successful and led to two more Spanish language albums. Not to mention her light opera with Pirates of Penzance.
you're right at that time no one else did sound like her and that was part of her appeal
She started out as the singer for a group called "The Stone Ponies" the song... "Different Drum"
Great singer… 👍
She can flat out SING!¡!!
One of the things I love about her is that she kind of switched things up on the producers in that this sort of presentation format was to focus on the singer/vocalist but she had a whole section for the artists and instrumentation which brought so much more to the song. Inclusive, many make one kind of ideal in songwriting and mixing that some don'r really value, but yo can hear the difference in this very short song unto itself. Linda, the back-up singers, the drummer, guitar player, bongo player, bass player, this is a whole outfit and therefore I like her musical message that it's a whole group and not one "star".
This was in the top 5 pop and R & B charts and she had a country top 5 at the same time, 'I can't help it if I'm still in love with you". Rare accomplishment.
She was the first artist to accomplish the feat, male or female.
“Skunk” Baxter kills those bongos!! Linda was amazing in the 70’s. Willie Nelson said if you didn’t have a crush on Linda, you have never met her!!
I remember the Midnight Special! If you weren't old enough to be out that late on Saturday night you were watching the Midnight Special followed by Don Kirshners Rock Concert.
One of the GOATs for women artists! After Karen Carpenter - the best Alto voice! Her documentary is worth the watch!
I just watched this. She was so young/pretty back then. I love the studio much better and I car sing with this all the time. I have her Greatest Hits. She is so good!!!!!
Those two are the goats! She didn’t write songs,just covered anything and made it better , even classics by stones, Neil young, Elvis Costello, buddy holly, eagles ( her original band)
She shows off her voice in her Spanish language stuff. My favorite is "La Cigarra."
Linda Ronstadt is a musical jewel. When you listen to this again and you should, listen to the studio version so that you can hear some of the other nuances that don't translate in The Midnight Special version. The Midnight Special is freaking awesome but listen to the album too.
The band is with all the people who are in it. Andrew Gold is also in there and you should listen to his song Lonely Boy. There is so much musical talent squashed onto that stage.
Great reaction. To get a taste of her diverse discography listen to “Ooh, Baby, Baby,” (Motown), “La Charreada,” (Spanish), and “Desperado” (Eagles, who were her first backup band) and “What’s New” (American Standard “Thanks gentlemen for this reaction.
Powerhouse voice and the greatest female singer in history in my opinion. In her early days she had Glenn Frey and Don Henley the two founding members in her band. She could sing the phonebook and it would be a hit.
Check out the Offenbach, Germany 1976 concert film. This was her best lineup. Andrew Gold, Waddy, Kenny Edwards, Michael Botts, Dan Dugmore, Brock Walsh. Truly the best of the best! (BTW, that’s Jeff Skunk Baxter on congas! Tremendous guitarist who founded Steely Dan and Doobie Brothers!)
Absolutely love Linda Ronstadt, dig deeper into her catalog and will not be disappointed. I live in Tucson Arizona where she is from and she is an incredible singer. "Just one look " is my favorite. So glad you reacted to her. ❤
In the 70s you had to be great LIVE. Linda Ronstadt really had the greatest voice, you'll love more of her songs.
Yep that was live!
voice of an angel and the Queen of the covers
Midnight Special is another reason the 70s was the greatest decade in music. The stadium shows like World Series of Rock, even some of the smaller venues had some big name artists. If there was a time machine everyone should visit the 70s. You would not be disappointed!
I've never seen this vid. thanks for turning us on.
If you want to be blown away do Linda’s Mariachi live performances, she’s unbelievable! Also, STEVIE NICKS is from AZ. You might’ve heard of her…
Yep, Stevie Nicks from Phoenix (1948) and Linda Ronstadt (1946) from Tucson.
I think Glen Campbell and Waylon Jennings are from Arizona as well.
@@markberryhill2715 I believe they both lived in AZ at some point, but weren’t born here.
Skunk Baxter on bongos. Andrew Gold on guitar. Classic rock, baby...
The Eagles were her original backup band. Her early work is untouchable.
Her father was never mayor. Her brother was chief of police
Linda could sing every genre, and she did! Flawlessly
Skunk Baxter was on bongos and he later played with Steely Dan.
and the Doobie Brothers, and did missile defense consulting with the Dept of Defense on the side.
Dudes! I own the ENTIRE collection of all Midnight Special DVDs. They are dope!
HER Blue Bayou is awesome. Big, BIG rabbit hole!
Skunk Baxster slapping the skins. One of the best guitar players playing bongos for you. Now that's how you do it.
Desperado by Linda, I always love you, Blue Bayou, For a long time, Heat WAVE
Ronstadt is a rabbit hole, for sure! wait until you see her Spanish stuff! She's amazing!
She was very young here and became much more comfortable as she continued on in her career.
Nick, I loved the "stankface" that you had towards the end. That means it was good. Your reactions are what keep me subscribed!
Canciones de mi Padre will blow your mind.
Everything that Linda did was flawless because Linda was a perfectionist. You need to follow up with something from her 1987 album, Canciones de Mi Padre. This album was a tribute to her Mexican heritage and to her father. It was a labor of love for her, and she put more passion into it than to anything else, if that's even possible. Two songs I would recommend are "La Cigarra" (the cicada) and "La Charreada" (the rodeo). You will NOT be disappointed.
The Midnight Special was a great show. In late 1978, Ted Nugent hosted the show and one of his musical guests was AC/DC. They performed the song, "Sin City". It is one of the best live performances I've ever seen. I didn't know who they were at the time. I bought all of their albums the next day.
Great song 👏
Linda covered and sang many genres extremely well.
This is the most beautiful female voice on the planet. I don’t know how people go without knowing who she is. Better late than never. Please check out her live version of “Down So Low”. Enjoy 🌺✌️
Linda’s hit/pop songs were covers. But in my opinion her best material was never played on the radio but is contained in her numerous albums. She sings ballads brilliantly but most didn’t make it onto the charts. 🌸
THe greatest female vocalist of my generation. Check out When Will I Be Loved -- the opening line is a clarion call. I've been cheated...been mistreated...when will I be loved. THen listen to some of her softer ballads. She's even better when she's being tender. It is beyond sad that she can no longer sing at all because of Parkinsons disease.
