What you're seeing is an example of the gender bias that has taken America down. She has a band of males who are putty in her hands. In fact, when women brought the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) to Congress, they testified they wanted ALL the jobs, not just equality. And Congress passed it into law anyway. Look where we are today.... I have a Master's Degree and a professional certification. I haven't worked since I was 55 (nine years ago).

I remember meeting Waddy and Andrew Gold while I was in LA just hanging out jamming with some guys I'd met at Capitol Records. They made me do some of my originals too. They liked them, but liked my signing better. I sang uncredited back up in a few sessions with them. Old days.

Yes, she had one of the stronger vocal deliveries in the business, then or now. Not many like her. But, the most interesting thing about her according to documentaries is that she enjoyed sex, and fucked like a banshee back in the day. I always thought of her as a little nymphet but had no basis for knowing what she was like in person, other than she had no problem being bra-less back then. She could sell a rock tune. Plus, she had good players to support her.

[@johncox2912]

It's really hard to imagine that music like this FLOODED the airwaves during the 60's and 70's. No funky tattoos. No strange names. No gimmicks. Just raw talent developed through years of singing and playing presented with straightforward honesty.

Funky tattoos? You sounds sooooooooooo lame, Boomer. LMAO. And I am the first year of Gen X. The cringe is hard but real to read this.

To be fair, the artists of the 60s and 70s only seem tame retrospectively. Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Mick Jagger, Elvis… they may not have had tattoos, but they were certainly shocking and upsetting to certain people in their day.

Those were the glory days for music. I was fortunate to be alive during those times.

A lot of it was born of no TV and religious singing. People and families had a culture of entertaining themselves and that probably created the rock and roll era. One might conclude the very things that now stifle creativity were used to show it off.

I actually loathe her voice and all commentators these days tell me I should be moved to tears by it. Occasionally I am but for completely the wrong reasons!Linda sang from the heart.

A real class act ... what a voice

[@Friendship1nmillion]

I dunno "Don R". I mean *SHE'S GOT A GREAT SINGING VOICE* {don't get me wrong}. I'd say she's as good as some of the current {new generation} of female singers. At the moment, it a "toss up" for me of the title of best female singer between Linda Ronstadt and Whitney Houston. 👨‍⚖️🇦🇺 👩‍🎤🏆🎙️♀️

I dedicated It to my ex Mann. I should have listened this song earlier in my live.

[@ajstein2008]

It's said over and over, but this is an all time great performance. Her vocal, her stage presence, and the band that just slays, while being able to leave space. Spot on backup vocals too, and a killer instrumental jam. I've shared this clip more times than I can remember.

[@francesj.jenson6698]

100% agree! This clip is my most shared of Linda's catalog. This extended jam is the pinnacle of live art.

Walked into a concert in the 70's, tagging along with nothing else to do, and heard the Eagles open for Linda Ronstadt. Lucky night for me. I wore the grooves our of Ronstadt's albums.

[@douglasreynolds9091]

I too, saw her with the Eagles as her backup band 1974 I think. Dan Fogelberg was on the bill also in Sacramento Memorial Coliseum Not too shabby,eh?
