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.

Linda was truly electrifying, but to say she was she best of the 20th century, well, we’ve had had our share of kick-ass female singers. Linda herself told a story of meeting Beverly Sills in a grocery store and she said Oh Ms. Sills, I must sing Mimi” (La Boheme.) And Sills said back “You and every mezzo soprano in the world my dear.” Repeating the story shows Linda’s heart and modesty, and it also shows she knew she wasn’t the absolute best. Listen to (and let yourself hear) some coloratura arias. The 20th Century had some totally stunning female singers. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aqynja6bq7CRoaM.html

@@themotiondoctor Ronstadt was clearly the greatest popular singer - in Concert she and that voice were mesmerizing. Surely some Opera and Jazz vocalists had it going on as well. A long long time ago I was in a fine restaurant in NYC - and Linda was there in the back with a couple of newspaper journalist guys and Beverly Sills. No one bothered them - they seemed to be giggling up a storm. When they left Sills and Linda were still laughing about something. Two very special songbirds from different ends of the musical forest.

That Bass!! Rock on Randy. Edit: Goodbye and rest gently Randy, prob the quietest nicest superstar ever , it's a shame the industry messed you about in the '80's , but at least you were not wanting for money and had a lovely home. You loved nature and the animals that knew you so well they would walk up to your back door for treats and some Randy Love ❤. And man you were a strong old coot getting up to 77yo and many wrote you off decades before 🙏🙏. I hope you left your fortune to a charity because God knows your kids were greedy and your ex wife was too. I celebrate your love and kindness , your undisputed place as one of the greatest , you gave the Eagles the unrivalled vocals to make them megastars on tour and really you never had to endure the travelling hits show from the nineties onwards.
