    Linda Ronstadt was the dominant solo female artist of the 70s. She was mostly on the rock charts, but she could cross genres as easily as most people cross their living room. She later had a tremendous career singing traditional Spanish songs. She is a legend all over the world, and she's worthy of that adoration. And all of us guys were absolutely in love e with her in the 70s ❤

    Linda Ronstadt was huge in the 70s. She sold out arenas and stadiums for years, and her voice was powerful enough to fill those venues. She has a huge discography, and she could sing anything. She really rocked out. Look for her live in Atlanta 1976 doing TUMBLING DICE/YOU'RE NO GOOD MEDLEY. She also covered many ballads, Motown hits, and straight up country. She has an album of traditional Mexican songs (her father was Mexican- American), and she performed on Broadway in the operetta " Pirates of Penzance". She is my favorite performer.

    I was a early teenager when I first heard and saw Linda Ronstead. I think she was my first seleverdy crush she is quite a beautiful lady and her voice as smooth as silk. I could fall in love with her voice without even looking at her. This song fits her like a glove. . Not only was she very talented but she was created for starting the great band the Eagles. Both Glen Fray and Don Henley were in her band when they told her they were thinking they wanted to start their on band. She told them she thought they would make a great band and even helped them find some of the other members of the band from people she knew. She is quite a lady to be respected. .

Anyway, I went to a large outdoor concert in a stadium in Tampa while I was staying with friends in Bradenton. Linda Ronstadt was in the lineup and she and her backup band were awesome. After she did a number of songs, she introduced her band and told the audience they were called the Eagles and had an album of their own coming out. The Eagles played about three or four songs and I was so impressed I told my friends "mark my words, you just saw a future super group". I called that one right!!!

My friend and I were sitting in the last row outdoors at Poplar Creek (near Chicago). At the time, the pavilion sat around 7200 people, so we were fairly far back. Linda came on stage, started singing, and the mic wasn't on. But...you could still hear her loud and clear!

    Linda Ronstadt was great musician and singer. She brought a lot of older music to modern pop ears. This is one example Roy Orbison's "Blue Bayou". Doris Troy's "Just One Look", Buddy Holly's " It Doesn't Matter Anymore" & "That'll Be The Day". Betty Everett's 'You're No Good", which was a #1 Pop hit for her, are just some examples. She also did Motown Smokey Robinson's "Tracks of My Tears" and "Ohh Baby Baby". She was the top Rock female artist of the 70s. Only she and Donna Summer could fill the big arena's, like the men back in the 70s. She had 6 top 10 hits on the Pop charts in the decade (behind Summer with 9 (4#1s), Olivia Newton John also had 9 top 10s, Streisand had 7), but like Donna Summer, Linda sold albums and lots of them (in the US market).

    Oh my goodness this little powerhouse has one of the most versatile voices out there and such a huge catalog of music to enjoy. And of course, she was gorgeous to boot! Pick any song, you can’t go wrong. She has a documentary called The Sound of My Voice that tells her story and finishes with her singing a trio with her brother and nephew.

    She is amazing. I think you would enjoy reacting to Linda Ronstadt & Mariachi Vargas doing La Charreada. The lyrics are in Spanish, but it doesn't matter because the performance is so astounding. It really shows off the power of her voice.

    I had to add, whenever I'm feeling a little down and depressed, I watch this video and it brings me back to life. There's something so special about the way she sings this song that helps melt my troubles away. Thank you guys for this, and thank you Linda.

    Fun fact, Glenn Frey and Don Henley who are two founding members of the Eagles were her backup band for a while. You can hear a lot of the similarities in the drums and guitar styles with her early music and the Eagles music.

    Linda has been around from the late 60s. Started with Stone Poneys. Inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. One of the greatest singers ever. Noted for doing covers as good as or better than the original. For example Tumbling Dice by the Stones, I knew you When by Billy Joe Royal, Ooo Baby Baby and Tracks of My Tears by Smokey Robinson, Heat Wave by Martha Reeves and more.

    Linda Ronstadt took the song to #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 in late 1977, where it held for four weeks, as well as #2 Country and #3 Easy Listening. It also reached #2, holding there for four weeks, on the Cash Box Top 100 chart.
    The single was RIAA certified Gold (for sales of over 1 million US copies) in January 1978. It was the first of Ronstadt's three Gold singles. Don Henley of the Eagles sang backup on the recording.[13] "Blue Bayou" was later certified Platinum (for over 2 million copies sold in the United States). It was a worldwide smash.[citation needed].
    Ronstadt's version was nominated for the Grammy Award for Record of the Year and for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.
    Ronstadt also recorded a Spanish-language version of the song, titled "Lago Azul (Blue Bayou)", which was released in 1978 on the single Asylum E-45464, backed by "Lo Siento Mi Vida", a previously released Spanish song that Ronstadt herself co-wrote. This version has never been included on any reissues of Simple Dreams.
    Ronstadt later performed the song on the episode 523 of The Muppet Show, first aired October 26, 1980 on UK, and May 16, 1981 on United States.
    Because of this song, Dickson's Baseball Dictionary records that a "Linda Ronstadt" is a synonym for a fastball, a pitch that "blew by you". That phrase was coined by Mets broadcaster Tim McCarver, during a Mets telecast in the 1980s.
    Ronstadt's version appears, in edited form, in the 2017 film American Made and in Tony Scott's 2004 film Man on Fire.
    Blue Bayou" was originally recorded by Roy Orbison at the end of 1961. In the UK, it was released by London Monument as the double A-side track with "Mean Woman Blues" on a Monument Records single (HLU 9777), where both sides peaked at number 3. In the US, it was issued as a B-side single, peaking at number 29; the A-side, "Mean Woman Blues", peaked at number 5. The song also appeared on Orbison's 1963 full-length album In Dreams. According to the authorised biography of Roy Orbison,[2] a rare different version of "Blue Bayou" was released only in Italy (London 45-HL 1499).

    This Linda Ronstadt version [1977] of Roy Orbison's [1961] original recording got a reboot from Tony Scott's 2004 movie "Man on Fire' starring Denzel Washington. Hauntingly beautiful and lonely. Perfect for Denzel's character.

    Great singers are many, this one is special because she did different styles and genres and was excellent in all of them. Even the great Roy Orbison heard her with his song and gave it thumbs up.

    This song was on her album Simple Dreams album released in 1977. This album had some of her most memorable songs, including It's So Easy, Tumbling Dice, Poor Poor Pitiful Me and Carmelita. Aside from her music, she was the dream of many young guys at the time here in Australia and many car cassette decks were blaring out this album.

    The best voice and range of any rock singer. She ruled the 70s. And, she has such an amazing and eclectic catalog. Two suggestions - "Long, Long Time" and "You're no Good".
