Linda Ronstadt with the Eagles - Silver Threads & Golden Needles, DKRC, 1974

There're also many opinions that Joe Walsh let Eagles not be Eagles. You better know there're many fans like Bernie era but dislike Joe era. It's just your opinion.Just like Tom Johnston era and Michael McDonald era Doobies were the perfectly different band under the same name.

As a "man of a certain age" I really appreciate this video. The Eagles really did the anthems of my youth. We lived many of their songs. Then there is Linda Ronstadt! Wow, any young man who wasn't in love with her had no eyes or ears. She is a total package. Not only beautiful, could sing ANY song from ANY genre but she was instrumental in helping tons of other influential musicians of the 70s and 80s made it. Who else could excel at hard rocking, country, folk, Spanish language and even opera! There were a lot of bad things about my generation (baby boomer) but I feel very luck to have lived in an era with such exceptional music such as this.

Back then, Linda's SMILE would knock a man down to his knees, IMO... So BEAUTIFUL and TALENTED-!!! LOVE HER (even to this day)-!!!!!!! Huge fan, of lovely Linda-!!! 🙂😊👍✌

[@cgg0nz0l]

Totally agree. Her smile, and the way she filled out those tight pants. And no plastic boobs, just natural as God made them.

[@mf5202]

There will be no one like Linda Ronstadt. Did Rock and Roll, Gilbert And Sullivan, Country and Mexican. All amazingly. One of a kind!

[@MrWahooknows]

Not to mention the American Songbook with Nelson Riddle. She could do it all - effortlessly.

I saw her in Boulder in the early seventies. Fell in love!

[@markuse3472]

I am so very excited they are finally going to make a film on Linda. Amazing. Long awaited.

[@user-le5qb5fd2i]

I just hope the forthcoming biopic of Linda Ronstadt is lip-synced by the actress portraying her, because nobody could be Ronstadts voice to have the tone that swoops from tenderness to muscular richness.

[@markuse3472]

@@user-le5qb5fd2i Practice is all it takes. People use to say 'no one can sing like Steve Perry,' then when Journey finds a singer who did, nailed that great voice, fans were saying he was using backtrack or other enhancements when he never did and so he was let go. It can be done.

[@jillkearns8010]

My late husband and I had our first date at an Eagles concert that Linda opened. We were married 1 year later. It was truly magical. Miss the days of their great music.

No matter how many times I hear the Lady sing, I always get chills up and down my spine. She had some big league pipes.

She sure did. Never heard a rock & roll or country singer belt out a song like she did.

Having Bernie Leadon next to her looks awesome. That's some great music. Linda has the best vocals of all time. IMHO.

[@rebeccablake3816]

There's so much going on here even though it's a deceptively simple song. Watch again for the interaction, dynamics, and even some side eye. Linda showed up to slay that! ❤

[@Koala63211]

When I was a lot younger in the 1970s, I think Linda sang the phone book, and it went Platinum. Thank you beautiful lady.

[@72floyd]

Linda and Bernie! This is the Eagles. Frey and Henley were spectators! Linda, Bernie, Randy, and Donnie were the Eagles!

[@dbowie007]

I saw her live when the Eagles were her back up band, before the Eagles hit it big on their own. One of the best concerts I ever saw with probably the best collection of musicians ever for a live show.
