    Linda was my first album cover crush, then hearing her voice just made me fall in love with her even more. Just as she was hitting it big with her solo career, some of her backing band decided they wanted to out on their own, so they asked Linda if they could, and she gave them her permission. Later, they became a little band called The Eagles.

    Life's full of loss
    Who knows the cost
    Living in the memory
    Of a love that never was.
    All about unrequited love and then the really powerful ending to the song with that strong lamentful belting showing how strong her voice is.

    She’s said in interviews that she grew up in a very musical family. They would sing at the dinner table at a very young age. Also they sang in English and Ranchero. She never knew what else to do-all she knew was music! Plus her ear is just phenomenal-she’s responsible for getting the Eagles together.

    Beth - Thank you so much for featuring Linda Ronstadt. It's great younger people are getting to know her. I've loved her since 1967. I saw her in 1977 on the same tour as the live version of Desperado that you reviewed. Yes, it was that good. Please keep it up. It's truly sad about Linda's losing her voice. But I want to comment on something. You did one reaction to Eva Cassidy a year or so ago. I've gone back and forth on this for the last 25 years. Linda and Eva are my top 2, no doubt. Linda's voice is phenominal. But Eva's voice is the only voice I've ever heard that cut right through me. Like Linda, Eva could sing absolutely anything she attempted. Unfortunately, Eva lost her life to cancer before she started to get the recognition she deserved. I really wish you would revisit her. She didn't leave behind anything near the catalog we have of Linda's in quantity. And the few videos that we have are grainy, black & white. But please go back and take a listen to what she did leave. You won't ever regret it.

    Way back (late '60's), TV sound was broadcast in mono. So not even stereo - let alone surround. Radio had SOME stations broadcasting in stereo. In the Sn Francisco Bay Area, there was a rock station called KFOG. They partnered with a local TV station occasionally to do what they called a "simulcast". The tv station would broadcast a live music event and KFOD would air the audio in stereo. I think it was in black and white as color tv was still not easy for a live event. The first simulcast I remember was a group called The Stone Ponies. Thats when I fell in love with Linda's voice.

    Beth, thanks for another great reaction and analysis! It's not often I am compelled to use the comments section when watching reactions. There's another live performance of this song on YT, from the Johnny Cash Show, that was done during the same era. Video quality is much better as is her performance, IMO. She seems much more confident and does a better job with the higher notes at the end of the song. I sense that she was just a bit nervous here. That might explain a bit of that tightness you spoke of later in the song. Still, she delivers a memorable performance. She shows a great interpretation, great voice combined with emotion and an understanding of exactly what she's singing. I love that it's a very honest performance, done way before the ubiquitous use of pitch correction, which sucks the soul and honesty out of the song every time. That honesty, I believe, is Linda's 'secret sauce'. You spoke of the 'cry' in her voice. Reminded me of another (formerly) very popular American singer, Connie Francis, who predates Linda by about ten years, or so, and used the 'cry' to great effect. Maybe there's an 'influence' here? Ah...prolly not. :)

    As always, another great reaction and analysis. Linda has been my favorite vocalist since she first arrived on the scene in 1967. It’s wonderful that you have (re)discovered her as she is too exceptional a talent to be forgotten. Another emotionally charged song from her early years is “Love Has No Pride”. Don’t miss her rendition of Roy Orbison’s “Blue Bayou” and, afterwards, you may be interested in an analysis of Linda’s vocal accuracy in performing this same song live as demonstrated by the gent at Wings of Pegasus on RUclips. In 50 plus years, I’ve never heard her miss a note.

    Great analysis as always, Beth. My year was made while working on Labyrinth and she and George Lucas past me and both said, “Good morning Mak”. Yeeha! ❤😊

    I recall hearing that for this show that she had or was coming off a cold. This explains the breathiness of the tone.

    Long Long Time, my #1 L.R. song, out of many favorites. I first saw Linda in Orlando Fl in1972 when Niel Young had her as an opening act. I was third row dead center, right under the microphone. I feel in love.

    Thank you! It’s so interesting to learn about singing, a field I have NO talent in.

    And to think, her voice got better after the training she did for "Pirates of Penzance". This is where she said she learned the difference of singing into a mic, and sing to an audience without a mic. But, one of the most underrated songs is one Karla Bonoff penned for her. "Someone To Lay Down Beside Me" the live version in 1977, Atlanta. It has a beautiful piano intro by the late Don Groinick and little guitar solo by Waddy Wachtel. Beautiful, no dancers, no autotune, just her beautiful voice, and talented musicians around her.

    Break out the ice / roller skates. I was about 14 when this came out, always a top favourite ballad.

    Linda did a lovely abbreviated version of this on the US live music program called Bert Sugarman's Midnight Special. Accompanied by acoustic guitar and pedal steel. Sublime.

    Do "Blue Bayou". Linda is an extravagant singer.

    From what I understand, at the time she did this song was recorded and filmed, she was singing mostly from instinct and from the singing experience that she had to that date.
    The video itself was from a live broadcast
    She performed the song on both the Johnny Cash Show and the Glen Campbell Good Time Hour

    This is a shortened version of this beautiful song. Television spots, at that time, did not allow for complete songs if they exceeded time limits. I’ve only found one live version of this that includes the entire song. I highly recommend her live performance of “Down So Low” from Germany. It will leave you speechless. 🌺✌️

    Check out the full version. There's a verse missing here (as others have said). Worth the time.

    I'm not exactly sure when this particular performance is from, but this is quite early in her career. She kept on getting better for years and years. If you want to dig into her catalog, 1989's album "Cry Like a Rainstorm, Howl Like the Wind" has some great work.

    Some melismatic singing. Most of the music now is syllabic so this is very beautiful.
