Linda Ronstadt & Andy Williams - Medley

[@MaryAnns_Lights]

Been on a Linda Ronstadt binge since seeing the tribute for Linda on The Kennedy Center Honors. I've been finding new videos I've not seen before on KZbin...her appearance on HeeHaw and this one...are just a couple of the new ones I've found. She was so amazingly talented.

[@lnl3237]

Maryann Lights, you'll be binging for a "long, long, time!" Her body of work is astounding. I'm now trying to track down all the songs on which she sung backup!

[@mikefinity7129]

Welcome to the club! I've had a crush on Linda since Different Drum came out when I was in high school ❤

[@rjb7569]

Saw Linda three times. Terrific! Girl had some pipes. Andy's Christmas specials were highlights for me. Excellent singer.

[@FastEddie95]

What we have here are two national treasures. I could sit and watch Linda on youtube for hours - she's breathtakingly amazing!

[@Country822]

She is simply gorgeous. What a singer!!!!!!

[@stevensrhester8594]

I've been a Ronstadt fan since the mid sixties when I saw her on the Andy William show. It was before this appearance.

[@thinkerly1]

Even early in her career, you can hear that Ms. Ronstadt had superb control of her vibrato. This is one of the characteristics of her craft that separates her from most other rock and pop singers.

[@2rock4blues]

Agree. she also had a wide range and was able to hit hi octaves with ease.

[@lanceanz]

I've more Linda Ronstadt CDs (and LPs) than any other artist, and that short video reminds me why I bought my first record. She's the outstanding vocalist of my lifetime.

[@EmpressOfWyoming58]

Wow, Linda singing Ticket to Ride. Awesome!

[@carrrexx7190]

Lovely Linda ❤

[@richardleonard4281]

"A new star, gonna be around for a long long time" Amen Andy.

[@FayeMaddin-nj9ii]

Beautiful

[@brianphillips634]

Nice duet on two great songs. And as always Linda was so easy on the eyes. Lucky Andy was in holding her hand.

[@SJHUE]

Two of the greats. What a lovely video thank you for posting.

[@Madrocker1954]

Andy had chemistry with any artist or actor. He was and is a very easy going guy, something of a rarity in the entertainment world.

[@dianaacademia9493]

You voice kept me amazed 100xs a day .... my love of your beings grows deeply... GOD really loves you... surely goodness and mercy will follow you.. the rest of your life... you are always in my prayer every now then within the day onwards... Ms. Linda Maria...

[@awilk930]

Amazing singers. This video is pure gold! Thanks for sharing.

[@pkappel006]

thanks for the info partner........I agree, what a beautiful woman and her voice is very touching. I was 17 in 1970 and always had andy on TV when my parents would watch him. We are getting 7 inches of snow today here in St. Paul, Minnesota. Good day to use my tread mill and shovel snow.....merry christmas and God Bless......PK Man

[@jorgewashington2981]

Linda.. one of the most talented and underrated singers of all times along with Marilyn McCoo of the Fifth Dimensi o n.

[@notbatman1000]

Andy hit that "gone to be around for a long time" on the head!! One of the best vocalists of all time, right there with Patsy Cline in my opinion!!

[@richardwhite2344]

Yes, Bruce. Andy is such a legend and so missed. He had a vocal range that few male singers could touch and such a warth and sincerity in his voice. One of the greatest was Andy and Linda!!!

[@DM-fg1bi]

Just seeing this now for this first time. Not only can she sing so beautifully, but she can harmonize! Few sopranoes can do that and with such a great crooner! She even makes good ol' Andy sound terrific!

[@teller1290]

Great to see her here with someone who also had the golden pipes. All this guy did was sing and he was one of the best of modern history. Not easy to sing with Linda and not sound second rate but Andy, Deano, Perry Como, Tony Bennett could belt it out with anyone.

[@duo2mon309]

Thanks for the memories always!

[@mudhens4ever]

Linda had (and I assume has) a GREAT voice. And her beauty was unsurpassed, in my mind at least. Looking at her here just absolutely melts me!!! I could use a thousand exclamation marks here......

[@cowboy80fan]

Another wonderful performance by the beautiful Linda. And Andy Williams is a legend. What a voice he had and still has. A real class act too. I wish some of the people commenting on here would show some respect to Linda. I'm crazy about her just like the next guy and have had fantasies about her too. But could you please keep your perverted thoughts to yourself. Show some respect for Linda. She is a human being and a very warm, caring person and she doesn't deserve to be talked about that way.

[@ejgnandt]

Good idea intertwining "ticket" and "Long long time" and brought off smoothly by the performers.

[@sterlinged]

Linda is gorgeous..... She has the whole package: looks +voice! I have always loved her...

[@richardwhite2344]

I agree!!! Linda looks so beautiful and she is so young? I wonder why she never married?

[@alexmz123]

Wow! I am posting this to my website! What a beautiful voice Linda had!

[@andyinoregon]

Just beautiful. Reminds me of the amazing pairing of Bing Crosby and David Bowie on Bing's final Christmas special, where they also sang different songs simultaneously. Now I'm going to have to play Karen Carpenter's equally stunning version of "Ticket To Ride." Thanks, Julian.

[@Vvie007]

I still watching.. I still believe in andy, the man who spreads kindness, joy n love to everybody and every children. I also believe that there r still many people out there who believe andy was nice people even though they were just silent. Worshippers? I have one n only God that is Allah.

[@Rogueleader69]

love it when she sings "the boy that's driving me mad is going away"... what a gorgeous voice

[@seaslipper1]

Someone says Linda is not attractive? Who can say that? Nobody can say that? But all that aside, what a singer, wow.

[@Madrocker1954]

Linda's hit "Long, Long Time" was in the year 1970, and I think Linda's appearance on Andy's show was near the end of 1970 or in early '71. She was 24 when this show was taped. She did a comedy sketch with Andy and the late Jimmy Durante, and also performed "(She's) A Very Lovely Woman." She was so beautiful and still is, in my eyes.

[@35diamondgirl]

Two wonderful, and wonderfully different, singers together. Andy Williams is still magnificient, probably the greatest pop crooner of my lifetime, and Linda Ronstadt was (after Dusty Springfield and Aretha Franklin) my favorite female singer as a young girl in the late '60s/early '70s.

[@B52sguy]

The poor, poor kids of today have no understanding of the perfect blend of talent, make that TALENT that some of the people of the 60's and 70's had to offer the world and everyone on KZbin should thank God or whomever that those guys invented it. Makes MTV, even in the beginning look like burnt toast. A FYI, the writer of LRs hit, "Different Drum" was written by Mike Nesmith of the "Monkees" who also was one of the creaters of MTV. His Mom invented "WhiteOut. Joseph F Portland, OR

[@tagordo]

exactly! It is a version of the Merry Go Round’s ‘You’re a Very Lovely Woman’. Pretty good job as always.

I wonder did she ever do a full version of ticket to ride. her voice is up there with the best i ever heard and some her interpretations knock the originals for six.

[@charleshonig7080]

Jorge, she never was underated she sold 100 million records and was the top female pop singer for 40 years.

[@taddyd1]

They both were extremely popular. Had awards, huge hit singles and albums.

[@teller1290]

Catch clip on here where Andy sings "Scarborough Fair" with Simon & Garfunkel.

[@frankd1965]

I agree. Linda is the only singer who did "Long Long Time". Andy Williams signature song is "The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year" Which is played on Christmas time.

[@ADenny12]

Andy had some dreamy eyes. And, I don't know how anyone can say Linda is not attractive?? Geesh! Back in the day, my girlfriends and I knew Linda was attractive enough to be jealous of, but that would not stick because she was so unassuming and sang so beautifully that any jealousy would melt. We had to listen to our boyfriends go on and on about her, but secretly many of us wanted to look and sing just like her :)

[@HalfFastChevy]

Andy was always a great singer and a great person. The way he stood by his wife thru her legal mess - I don't know that I could have done that, not after she did him the way she did. He is a class act all the way.

[@Madrocker1954]

You're welcome. Linda's sketch with Jimm Durante was warmhearted and funny. Durante was a carnival barker and Linda was trying for a stuffed bear by making three shots with a rifle. When she missed, she pointed the gun at Durante and told him to give her the bear. After she has the bear and walks out of the scene, Durante said "I didn't have the heart to tell her the gun wasn't loaded!" Linda could've been a pretty good comedic actress if she had been offered the

@lourdesfranc you must be KIDDING - are you blind?! one of the most beautiful & charismatic singers EVER!

[@garyb3397]

Linda: "I think I'm going to be SICK"....Okay, the lyric is "sad", but she looks as though she's "sick" to be performing with Mr. Square. But, then, Linda also looks mighty HIGH, doesn't she? No worries. They both sing wonderfully together.

[@gregmccurry5619]

Mr Square at least hid did not O>D By 27?

[@teller1290]

square or not, this guy had the golden pipes like Linda and few others. I wonder if she ever did Dean martin Show. Man, I'd love to see Dean flirting with her, bourbon in hand, and just belting out whatever she wanted to sing like it was his. he was amazing, but so is she.

U an idiot.

Maybe you should've left your leftist ideology behind at the door. But you can't. It's your religion and everyone has to be dosed...for their own good, of course, even if it kills them and tears this evil country down to its foundations.

[@garyb3397]

Linda looks mighty stoned here (seriously). And when she starts the refrain, "I think I'm gonna be..." a newbie to the song would probably think the next lyric is "SICK." She didn't seem to want to be there. But she's rock 'n roll, and Andy was pure middle of the road, as much as I adore them both. Nice duet, though.

May I ask what are you talking about? Isn't he still alive?

It's a matter of taste. Dolly Parton said that Ms. Ronstadt had one of the three greatest women's voices. Emmylou Harris said that Ms. Ronstadt had one of the two greatest voices of the Twentieth Century. Eleven Grammys, five platinum albums, 110 million records sold. Best selling woman in Rock n Roll, and the Queen of Rock n Roll in the 1970s. 3rd best selling woman country singer. Best-selling non-English record in American history. Light opera and opera on Broadway. Etc. etc. But, there are always people around like you who like to criticize. Go ahead. We don't care.

[@jondavwal13]

@@thinkerly1 It's not a matter of taste. Some things are objectively factual. Carpenter was a pleasant extremely average singer who made it because she sang an octave lower than other women.
