    I’m 70 years old. I still love Linda. I still get goosebumps when I hear her voice.

      Yeah, what a voice. I think it was Dolly Pardon that named three women singers one of which was Linda Ronstadt.
      Dolly said, "they can really sing, the rest of us pretend"

      You would be right! The 70s, 80s, I covered quite a bit of the same songs she covered. It may have been Don Henley - it was one of the Eagles who said that her cover of Desperado was better than their original. I fully agree.
      She had a natural octave range - according to my voice instructor many years ago - is quite rare. A gift and I wish I had used mine more than I did. Under the circumstances I guess I can say I did the best, but still, I let too many people keep me down and for anyone reading this, if you are gifted and you'll know it if you are - then you need to use that gift! You need to hone it, keep it polished just as a saxophone player would keep their instrument polished and ready to go. Don't listen to the negative people who will bring you down because they will & even in the house of God! Oh yes especially in the house of God✋, they will bring you down, not even realizing what they're doing is out of petty jealousy! Yes, ✋ to God‼️
      Use it/lose it. Just when you're giving into the pressures...you'll find you need your gift to sustain you thru the fires of life's hell - you need all of it❣️ Hang on, joy comes in the morning & accompanied by 🎵🎵🎵❣️✋

    There's somebody waiting alone in the street
    For someone to walk up and greet
    Here you are all alone in the city
    Where's the love that you took to your side
    Lonely faces will stare through your eyes in the night
    And they'll say
    Woman sweet woman
    Please come home with me
    You're shining and willing and free
    But your love is a common occurrence
    Not like love that I feel in my heart
    Still you know that may be what I need
    Is someone to lay down beside me
    And even though it's not real
    Just someone to lay down beside me
    You're the story of my life
    Someone to lay down beside me
    And even though it's not real
    Just someone to lay down beside me
    You're the story of my life
    The morning is breaking
    The street lights are off
    The sun will soon share all the cost
    Of a world that can be sort of heartless
    Not like love that I feel in my heart
    Still you know that may be all you'll get
    Is someone to lay down beside you
    And even though it's not real
    Just someone to lay down beside you
    You just can't ask for more

      Since the 80's every female singer is expected to dance around while she sings. It ruins a whole lot of potentially great performances. Then we wind up with lip synched versions because it's virtually impossible to sing well when you're dancing too. Kind of a shame that music has so been reduced in quality because the video is deemed so important by kids today. It's especially evident in the female performers, because most of the guys don't have to do all the crazy choreography.

    What was amazing about her was her projection and pitch at her volume. I heard many great bands in Selland Arena , but hers was the clearest most beautiful and powerful voice I heard in that arena in the seventies. The other clearest voice I recall was Neil Diamond. His voice boomed.

    • @karenmcdunn3852
      @karenmcdunn3852 ปีที่แล้ว

      Perfect segue (Now, hear me out...) - Put this amazing Karla Bonoff song/LR performance back to back with Neil Diamond's "Modern Day Version of Love" and you have the most incredibly perfect picture of young people searching for love in the 70's... But, the crazy thing is, both songs are just as true and relevant today... Great art is timeless!!

      This is what you can get from female singers when they don't have to dance while singing. We have very good singers today, too, but the insistence on dancing while singing completely destroys any chance of them doing quality singing live, so we can't know if they're even capable of it. A very sad situation.

    When songwriting had imagery it had all the fullness of transporting you to a place the singer is taking you too..... Ronstadt captures the desperation of the loneliness she and others that are looking for anyone. She tells us this is the story of her "life" a woman desperate for love but looking in all the wrong places. Spellbinding performance, she is vulnerable here and knows she will not find a man to really love her.

    Thanks. I remember sitting next to Kenny Edwards at a party in Hollywood in the mid-80's. The metal music in vogue at that time worried him. He really didn't know what to think of it. I was having fun playing various L.A. clubs and drinking a lot, not worrying too much about it. I didn't realize at the time that Kenny knew the real music was over...

    Andrew Gold was a GREAT loss to the world of music, as was Kenny Edwards (bass in this band). They were both just magical talents. I saw this tour live in Philadelphia in '76. Scary good. Linda was the dream girl of our generation (along with Stevie Nicks, of course).

    Linda Ronstadt had great taste in songs she covered and turned them into hits from Tumbling Dice to Back In the USA (Rolling Stones/Chuck Berry)! Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison, Smokey Robinson, Neil Young! The list goes on and on. Besides Someone To Lay Down Beside Me I also love her version of Willin' by Little Feat!! Then there's her Trio stuff she did with Dolly Parton and Emmy Lou Harris!!! Great place to start is her greatest hits Vol 1 and 2!!! Real hits back when people actually bought music not like the fake streaming charts of today!!

She seems to be in extra good voice in these Offenbach clips -- the quality is exceptional. Feel so blessed to have these concrete performances to go along with all of the wonderful memories. Thank you, Linda, and to all of us who keep her music alive.

    In the context of the voice, the speaker, and the song, "lay" is so much the correct
    word. This song isn't a grammar lesson. It's a survival lesson, and after "lie" after
    "lie" you "lay" to get by. Miss you, Linda.

    I don't want to live in my past and I don't. The 1970's are long gone. hard enough in today's get around. But, when Linda sings...,that summer burns bright.

      I think it's that which separates a great singer from the rest. Sure, some may have more range, or be able to hold a note longer. But the best are the ones who can express the feeling of their song to their audience, and Linda always had THAT skill, in spades. Add that to a spectacular voice, and, well, you get musical ecstasy.

      Seems almost unfair that she gets to use a mic. The woman could let it out there and make it sound beautiful every time it seens.

    It certainly spoke clearly of its era and the lonesome quandary of swinging while single. For me, it is her best performance. I never tire of it.

    I remember this particular tour. 70's Pop/Rock was so powerful and elicited very strong emotions. Everyone in this band was so talented, as were the recording engineers, etc. All gone now, though. I was an eighteen year old guitarist at this time and the things I learned and the influences I absorbed back then are still inspiring my playing today. I wish everyone could experience these things.

    Try as you might. You will never be able to recapture that perfect voice, that perfect face, that perfect moment. Kent State 1974. 45 blissful moments after Al Stewart's staggering opening act.

      That is one powerful song, for sure. It still sounds so good, and still hurts my heart, even tho it's not really my pain
