      Linda, I would suggest "The Complete MCA Studio Recordings". I don't own it since this is a compilation and I have most of the songs on individual CDs. This is massive double CD containing 46 tracks. When I checked the playlist, it contains at least 2 dozen of my favorite Nanci songs, many written by her. You might want to add "Other Voices, Other Rooms" that includes songs not written by her. It includes Kate Wolf's "Across the Great Divide", probably one of their best songs (both Kate's writing and Nanci's performance). Both are available from Amazon at a very reasonable price and, if you don't want to wait on the mail, can be downloaded.I envy someone who will be hearing many of these songs for the first time.

      I've been looking for signs of Nanci for years, but I've reluctantly accepted that she IS retired. I read somewhere that she attributed her retirement to arthritis and not being able to play guitar anymore ... just like Eddie in "Love at the Five and Dime." I hope Nanci is not selling insurance on the side. Spent some years away from Nanci after finding my favorite band (Dawes - two band members are former insurance company employees!), but I'm back to Nanci lately, and she sounds so good. We fans took her for granted, thinking we would always have her. I got so close to shaking her hand after a performance in San Francisco. I consoled myself thinking "next time!" but that never happened. Miss you, Nanci!

      @gwflew  4 года назад +8

      Nanci's voice has a charm and character all her own. It is evident that I am a big fan of Nanci...after all I posted these videos. However, when you consider the range and clarity of Linda Ronstadt's voice, I can only conclude that she was the greatest vocalist of the last half of the 20th century. From her first hit of "Different Drums" (one of my top 10 rock songs of all time) with the Stone Poneys in '67 to her final recording, "Adieu False Heart" with Ann Savoy in 2006, the breadth of her work spans big band, pop, folk, country, rock n roll, mariachi, and even a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta. If you want to enjoy her vocal range, check out "Adios" recorded on '89. It is unfortunate that Parkinson's took her beautiful voice from us.
