Some songs for your consideration by linda ronstadt:

To this day, what I find most incredible about Linda's talent, is her ability to sing without, seemingly, one ounce of effort. She opens her mouth and, guess what?? Perfection!

She has a Mexican background. She grew up in this culture. As beautiful as Linda's voice was, an affliction has made it impossible for her to sing ever again. This must have been so devastating for her, but she gave us years of great recordings.

Linda Ronstadt is one of the greatest female singers of all time.

Thanks for doing this and referring to me as “young” 😂😂. Linda is paying tribute to her Mexican heritage with this Mariachi music. This is part of an hour plus song and dance show. There are many other stunning performances from the show. I agree with the other commenter that you should explore her earlier hits first. Her catalogue spans forty years. Feel better

Saw Linda doing a smaller version of this show in Fresno, Ca. Her father was Mexican and she grew up hearing these songs. I had a cold (like you) but went to the show anyway. I was second row off to the side of the stage, by myself. But she came over stood right in front of me and sang to me. She was so beautiful I forgot I even had a cold!!

I saw Linda Ronstadt live on Broadway in Gilbert and Sullivan's 'Pirates of Penzance'. She could sing any style.

Linda is Half Mexican, Half Caucasian. This Mariachi Music is in Honor of her Father. The album is called “Canciones de mi Padre” (Songs of my Father). She doesn’t speak a lick of Spanish, but her singing is Dead On! She says since they are from Arizona, they would BBQ on weekends and her Father and Uncles would play and sing this music. Please React to “Los Laureles” off this album. Just sooo sorry she has M/S and can’t sing anymore. Her Vocal Chords don’t work right, still her music lives on as her Legacy. Thank you so much for Highlighting Miss Ronstadt, we love her, God Bless you Darl’n!.. SanJoséBob

She has latin heritage. To honor that she did an entire album of Mexican classics.

No matter what kind of music from rock and roll ,big band , opera, country this lady has sung it all and done it all.We are lucky to have this great God given voice in our live time .

Linda was Mexican from Arizona. She speaks about her Mexican upbringing. She sang rock ‘n’ roll in the 60s and 70s and then in the 80s. She did a lot of orchestra music. You should really check that out because the song she sang with orchestras were very beautiful and then she ended up going back to her roots and began to sing mariachi music. She was just incredible with an incredible gifted voice, and if you notice in the mariachi music, she can hold a tone for so long, and go into a sentence, and finish the brace without one breath in between, that is an amazing gift

The most beautiful voice I have ever heard. I've loved listening to her sing since the Stone Ponies. It's pretty obvious this person had never heard of her.

Linda won Grammy awards for her work during her Rock and Pop years.

The pride of Tucson, Arizona! ¡Viva Linda!

This album is still, 36 years later, the number one selling Spanish language album of all time.

Lind Ronstadt is an amazing talent that only comes around once in a lifetime! Oh my God, what pipes she had to sing those classic songs! It takes very strong vocals to hit those notes the way she did. Singing with a Mariachi is a huge test of your vocals and range. Not only that she touches our soul inside that bring out that inner Mexican heritage and you can't hold back a tear of joy and happiness! Very rare when a singer can do that to you in any language! I am so glad that she recorded those songs and I believe in my heart that she found her calling! Yes she had some English hits, but I believe when she sang in Spanish she let her soul sing and it was magic! Thank you Linda!

After all she's half Mexican strongly rooted to her roots.

That was beautiful! This performance brought tears to my eyes. Made me think of my dad, may he rest in peace. I gifted him her first Spanish album for Christmas one year. He loved it.

Linda Ronstadt the greatest pop vocalist of all time.

Man, can she hold those notes!
