Liinda Ronstadt and Phoebe Snow The Shoop Shoop Song

"The Shoop Shoop Song (It's in His Kiss)" is a song written by Rudy Clark. It was first released as a single in 1963 by Merry Clayton that did not chart. The song was made a hit a year later when recorded by Betty Everett, who hit No. 1 on the Cashbox magazine R&B charts with it in 1964. Recorded by dozens of artists and groups around the world in the decades since, the song became an international hit once again when remade by Cher in 1990.

Linda Ronstadt is my hero. ❤ Phoebe is so fine.

Two of the Greatest !

What a great dup these 2 are. Sad ones gone the other has lost her grest voice. Thank goodness fir these on you tube

[@enochstandridge8634]

That's some awesome FIRE !!!!! PEOPLE ❤❤❤LOVE these girls for a long ,long time

[@corsairdipthong3874]

The best version of this song ever. They were both on fire.

[@mthivier]

And one of the ten best musical performances on SNL ever.

[@denisepaul7274]

Oh how this breaks my heart. I’ve loved them both since the 70’s. Now Phoebe is gone and Linda can no longer sing due to illness. Thankfully we still have their music

[@kerristanding5774]

You’re so right

[@pmcclaren1]

Linda's Eyes always SPARKLE! sets her off from all others, incredible voice that soars like an eagle and then to velvet that melts you away. She is so fine, what a fox & STUNNING BEAUTY!

[@ronniebishop2496]

Absolutely, and when I was young in the 60s and 70s I don’t know why I didn’t notice her and boy that’s sure changed.

[@pmcclaren1]

@@ronniebishop2496 I'm with you brother. Wish I could have seen her in concert in the '70s. Our BOOMER generation; we gentlemen were (and still are) blessed w/ most beautiful ladies, coolest cars & best music ever made.

[@jackdasef7367]

Two great artists at the top of their game. It doesn't get any better than this.

[@robertdry7271]

The Best!!!

[@summerbreeze-d2l]

Adorable!

[@RJS1974]

Linda was a huge star when she made this appearance with her friend Phoebe Snow back in 1979. Phoebe always a big indy favorite back in the day. Good stuff. Sheer joy.

[@GershEnhorn10]

Was this on Saturday Night Live?

[@marybaker1715]

Love Linda’s growl!! She was so excellent Live. Thank God I got to witness this National treasure

[@cprimack]

I was lucky enough to see this live as it was broadcast. Cant ever get enough of this duet.

Me too! Been looking for this clip ever since.

[@cerebrusprime4742]

@Linda Ohlsen how old you is if u dont mind me asking?

[@radar0412]

@@cerebrusprime4742 Although I saw the Original Broadcast on SNL, I had to look up the year. I guessed mid 80's, but it was actually 1979. Cheers!

I’ve watched this about 200 times over the last month

[@gotti6969]

SNL at its BEST! Dynamic duo. Phoebe was fantastic and Linda is a FORCE OF NATURE! You can see the love and great respect they had for each other! 2 of the greatest female voices.

[@op3129]

this is SNL?

[@TwinMillMC]

Phoebe totally stole the show made Linda look like just a backup singer 😢

[@lnl3237]

...and given Ms. Ronstadt's humility in regard to her own talent, she would be fine with this.

[@Twvball]

@@op3129sure is SNL. I remember seeing this when it was on live. Left me in awe by taking a simple song and making it a treasure

One of those moments you play over and over again when you want to feel good. Will never get old.

Linda seem like she really enjoyed singing with Phoebe. Phoebe can hold her own against Linda too. Really enjoyed this thanks for posting

[@DebDellaPiana]

I've been a Ronstadt fan for decades. She always said she'd love to be part of a girl group. That would have been something to see.

[@zimryu]

This is one of the best duets ever!

[@lorraineminor71]

I remember this performance and so loved it; Phoebe Snow and Linda Ronstadt just tore through this song. Loved their rapport and the way the audience yelped with delight at that great finish. This was one of two memorable duets of that night, the other being Linda and Phoebe performing the poignant Roche Sisters tune "The Married Men." God, I miss those days, that music, this kind of artistry.

[@markvmv186]

Love Phoebe and Linda together. Really wish they had recorded together.

[@Fishbite9]

Magnificent mother first, brilliant artist second was the exquisite Phoebe Snow. One of the best.

[@shaywestlake9709]

Another great find. I love Linda Ronstadt.

[@lyrical7747]

I love how they both went all out in this performance - and I would suggest that's because they had such a mutual respect for each other as artists and friends which is plain to see here! That's how you know a duet is good. 😉 And this is FANTASTIC, no question about it. I haven't heard a better version of this song, personally.

[@stormygabriel2285]

What a nice duo, Phoebe Snow with Linda Ronstadt. Two creative vocals collaborating.

[@debbiemiga7550]

I remember watching this with my best friend Mike the night it aired! Miss those days!

[@pjesf]

Shame I can only do one 👍🏻 because that was ⚡️AMAZING⚡️

[@collinsjamesl]

Wow! I'm smiling ear to ear while listening to this. Probably the best version I've ever heard of this song. So...Phoebe and Linda never recorded anything in the studio together? Ever? I've also noticed there is 19 thumbs down on this post? WTF is wrong with these people? Oy!

[@colenewaltersmusicandother9330]

I saw this for the first time when it was on the air and this is the reason why I wanted to be a singer🌸

[@earl77]

From 1979, great performance, Linda has such a great and powerful voice. She should have recorded this song.

[@xav8rdan]

She also performed it with the Muppets (it's on KZbin)

[@rgurtiza]

I came looking for this video because I've always remembered watching the original broadcast on SNL in 1979. You can see a young Paul Shaffer playing keyboard in the SNL band. Late Night with David Letterman wouldn't premiere for 3 more years. Cheers for the upload!

Genius at work. Amazing in every way.

You should check out 1970s videos of Linda Ronstadt duetting with Cher, and a 1980s video of Linda duetting with Leo Sayer “Tumbling Dice.”

[@eduardofukay]

The singers are fabulous. And Mr. Lou Marini on the sax.

[@mthivier]

Back when musicians went on SNL just to jam with each other, not because they had a record to promote. (Remember when Paul Simon and George Harrison went on to sing "Here Comes the Sun" together?)

[@earl77]

So true, also remember Joe Cocker and John Belushi singing "With a little help from my friends" in 1976, legendary.

[@jamiedelson662]

I watched this when it aired live and have loved it ever since. Just amazing.

[@trenier23]

AMAZING to see and hear this fabulous pair again! So sad: Phoebe passed on, and Linda is very ill now with Parkinson's since 2013 and can no longer sing....

[@lnl3237]

Darrell, whenever I start to feel sad about the ravages of time and cruel fate, I try to replace that thought with they lived to do it and we're still alive to enjoy it! Bless them for it.
