- Desperado" is a song by the American rock band the Eagles. The track was written by Glenn Frey and Don Henley and appeared on the 1973 album Desperado as well as numerous compilation albums. It ranked No. 494 on Rolling Stone's 2004 list of "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time".According to Henley, "Desperado" was based on a song he started in 1968, written in the style of old songs by Stephen Foster. The song was originally about a friend named Leo and began with "Leo, my God, why don't you come to your senses..." In 1972, after they had recorded their first album Eagles in London, Glenn Frey and Henley decided that they should write songs together, and within a day or two after returning from London, they wrote "Desperado".

Desperado is one of the songs from the DVD " Linda Ronstadt live in Germany 1976" released in 2013 by IMMORTAL.
1976, when Linda sang this boy, all of us Marines back at Camp LeJeune were crazy about her.
Honest, pure heartbreak in Ronstadt's pipes. Both powerful and warm. No one quite like Linda. On the right night just mesmerizing- we are still listening and melting. Sigh...
Linda Ronstadt... sigh. Our prison is walking thru this world without Linda's voice. Stunning sound.
This was my favorite!! She is an Icon.and Beautiful most Beautiful voice ever!
I was 14 when I fall in love with her that voice is so beautiful I’m 60 years old and still love her
Linda had a beautiful voice she truly knew how to do this song truly one of the best.
Never has been anyone like her
Linda: You broke my heart back in Tucson and I guess it is still today. Never have I had such a sweet hurt. Thank you OOXX.
Her Amazing Vocals and Performance are always uplifting
She had a Stradivarius quality instrument that she played to her hearts desire. Nothing else quite like Linda Ronstadt. Sigh...

So sweet.
Grab the microphone and surrender to the music. Linda was both powerful and tender. Her Live version of this tune is what makes it important.
Beautiful lady with a voice to die for. Wonderful, so happy that I experienced her career. It should have lasted much longer but illness ruined that tragically.
My very first album I purchased with my own earned money at 10 years old was Simple Dreams. I've seen her live twice. She's as good live-always pitch perfect and powerful-as she is on her albums. Linda was my 1st crush and my love and adoration for her continues today.
I was a 21 yr old Marine at Camp LeJeune North Carolina, back in 1976, we were in love with her.
She lifted us up. Cool, unadorned and a set of pipes to die for.
Lovely comment, Roberto. Still lifting me up.
Wow. Linda really makes this tune hauntingly sad, powerful and tender.
The Voice of Ms. Linda Ronstadt is a unique and only its own. Sure some are able to do Blue Bayou bit to do this tune like Ms. Linda Ronstadt did it with the Eagles would be the challenge. Tone is not faked in any way.
The voice of an Angel.
One of the greatest female singers, saw her in concert with the Eagles in Anaheim.
Know it was a long time ago, Larry, but do you have any specific memories of that performance? Never saw her live, so I live vicariously. Thanks.
@@lnl3237 Yes, it was a long time ago she sang all her hits, seems like yesterday. It was that she suggested that the Eagles start their band. Great concert at Angels stadium. What a voice!!!!
@@larrywong6331 Thanks, Larry. Savor that memory. A voice for the ages and you got to hear it in real time!
One of the most versatile singer of all times l wish that were more like her but there's only one Linda Ronstand.
Not to mention the other Linda...Linda Ronstadt!
Linda is on the Mt.Rushmore of greatest voices in the last 100 years.
Linda was able to color her voice like no other. What ever she was singing about sorrow, joy or heartache you can hear the emotion behind the songwriters words. It's why so many songwriters loved to have her do their songs. She could sing it better than they could.
Perfect analysis
Totally agree you could hear the emotion her feeling the song what more could you ask for just an amazing artist...
Soooooo talented! Versatile, soulful and beautiful. She’s unmatched.
Ya shoulda seen her in a Cub Scout uniform, Whew!!!!
@@frankmorris4790 Concur!
Talented lady, beautiful voice, like a nightingale, putting the prima donnas to shame.
No matter how many times I hear it. Still gives chills
A Voice from Heaven
WOW! Triple WOW! Heart’s Desire.
My idea of true japonesa (i meant hapiness !)and peace of mind:
Linda Rondstad singing Despertado with heart and beauty
Qmm
Funny to watch Henley and Frey talk about this song. They wrote it, put it on their album, and it went no-where. Linda did it, it became a smash hit, and has entered the repertory of many artists. Henley and Frey always gave Linda the credit.
repertoire
Exactly. Frey says she made it the Eagles signature song and Henley says she made it a classic. That's quite high praise.
Linda just quite possibly would have released it before the Eagles in 74. She was having trouble finishing her Don't Cry Now album. She had historically released in the spring around March. Don't Cry Now was months behind in November I think.
Eagles album sold very well.
Thanks for letting me really see who u are...I am out of making excuses as to why you are the way you are I have to accept who is n always will be there for me..geez u are sooo vulnerable to the outside forces that you believe have your best interest at heart..YEA,good luck cause I'm out of words n advice..BYE LOVE
wow!
I love her.
I saw Linda just before she did this Germany tour, in Nov. of '76 at the Universal Amphitheater in L.A., she was just incredible, my favorite singer.
Thanks for this!
On TH-cam you can see Linda's performance of "Down So Low" in Germany. The woman makes me cry with tears of joy.
@@thinkerly1 She can do that ... so sad that can't sing any longer !
Are y'all crying, too? She makes a tuff guy remember his mamma's kisses, don't she?! Whewwww,....
She is gorgeous here. No modern "diva" can compare. Her voice could do anything: high, low, sad, sorrowful, hopeful, anything. She could do folk, country, rock. opera, big ballad and all with feeling. I loved The Eagles singing this and always will. It was my first and only but Linda hit those high notes they couldn't.
Indeed. You got it all. "No modern "diva' can compare". NOT ONE of them is even close to Ms. Ronstadt has power, flexibility and versatility that few possess. Eva Cassidy might be close to Linda Ronstadt. Sadly Ms Cassidy died way too soon, Died young. Never got a fair chance to make it big
Frey and Henley always gave her credit for making this song a hit - did not begrudge her a single dollar nor a second of attention. Both of them credit her for giving The Eagles a start: Henley & Frey started out playing in her band. Elegant lady that she is, she never publicly criticized them for wanting to start their own band.
Cuando naciste con talento no hay más que agregar.
ร้องได้ถึงอารมณ์ ชอบมากครับ ขอเป็นFcนะครับ
♥️♥️♥️🌹🌹🌹great song
Galing na singer. I love her songs!
Great performer in her day..
👏👏💗
This song should wipe away any doubt about her 'pipe', the Eagles did not accuse but praise her for singing their song, I am sure most of them if not all would do the same including Don n Phil Everlys' When Will I Be Loved,' powerful w/o having to scream. Willie Nelson was right about her.
The Eagles would not have existed if it weren't for her. Watch the biography of the Eagles.
She knew some of the Eagle members before they were the Eagles. They played in her band before any of them were famous.
ありがとう🇯🇵
Last song Henley wrote for the Eagles
Why not? I don’t think anyone knows what these guys meant to her. But, that doesn’t matter anymore. Whatever!
Bit harsh knocking Henley and Frey?? Fyi Glenn Frey sang this song like no other love Linda's version but don't even come close to to glen's
I would have to disagree and so would the Eagles. Don Henley originally sang this song and was unhappy with his performance of it. MaybeGlenn sang it later but the initial recording was Henley!
