"There is two kinds of men in the world, those with a crush on Linda Ronstadt and those who never heard of her". - Willie Nelson

Willy Nelson: "There are 2 kinds of men in the world. Those that are in love with Linda Ronstadt. And those that have never heard of her."

She was so young and she held her own on national TV with a music legend. What an incredible presence she had.

She was, and still is as beautiful as her voice. An absolute angel!

Linda is hauntingly beautiful in sight and sound.

Did you ever see a more beautiful girl and she can sing like a bird. Wonderful!!!!!

the fact she was only like 21 here and singing on national tv with a legend with such confidence is crazy. truly wonderful

I have followed Linda since I was 18 years old. I am now 82 and I still have not found such beauty or voice anywhere.

A very prophetic song about her life. She never did marry though she dated her share of men, she stayed true to herself and the life she chose. A life of sharing her great singing voice with the world through almost every form of music. I, for one, would like to say, "Thank you Linda, thanks for everything!!"

I've invented a Time Machine to take us back to the 1960s n 70s. Whose coming ?

Linda Ronstadt could sing anything in any genre. Country, blues, pop, rock, bluegrass,show tunes, Tejano, folk, you name it, she could, and did, sing it and sound sensational. One of my favorite singers of the 60's and 70's. Likewise Johnny Cash. Either solo or duet up with Roy Clark, The Highwaymen, June Carter and her kin, Linda Ronstadt, Johnny magnified every song he sang!

As a teen in those time I had a major Crush on her. Could listen to her all day.

Linda was so gorgeous back in the day

Amazing voices! How beautiful is Linda Ronstadt!

Linda is one of the prettiest women that God has ever graced this world with .

Only 23 years old here, she is totally broadcasting her Mexican American Arizona ancestor good looks with her multi colored dress, hoop ear rings, dark hair and eyes. And of course her flawless singing who she credits her father and specifically Mexican country singer Lola Beltran.

A great combination. Johnny Cash the master. Pretty Linda holds her own. It was all about the artist and the song back then. No computer pyratecnics or blue screen. Also no tattoos.

10 years later KZfaq recommends this from 51 years ago. All I can say is, Oh Linda. My God. Words can't describe how fine you are. Just know that we still love you.

When you had NO autotune they were the REAL DEAL

Truly a beautiful woman with an incredible voice. I am now 81 years old but I have followed you for 60 of them.

I think that was the prettiest woman alive back then.

Linda, I hope that you are watching yourself on this video. I want to thank you for so many wonderful songs that made my life more beautiful. Millions of us thank you Linda 😘❤️😘

She was drop-dead gorgeous at this time in her life, absolutley stunning.

Linda Ronstadt, My goodness what have we done to deserve her.? Gorgeous and heartbreaking. Here she's just getting started.

Linda was ridiculously beautiful as a young woman, and one of the greatest voices ever.

Man, was she the cutest singer ever????? Looks, talent and a very nice lady. She's an American treasure.

You know one of my favorite things about this performance? Watching him listen to her at certain parts. He was possibly more impressed than he thought he’d be. And he did such a good job at framing her up as if to display a flower. He wasn’t “show-boating” or anything even though it was his show. He was humble and showed her to be admired. AND LORD DID SHE SHOW UP FOR THAT BEAUTIFUL PERFORMANCE. The professionalism and mutual appreciation seemed so good, and such a VERY RARE opportunity for anyone to witness. THE OTHER ONE of my favorite things, is the perfection of how their vibratos matched and fell together. I mean, Hi, can you please exquisitely tell a story about a suicide yet make it sound adorably charming..?? Almost irresponsible how well they did that song! LOL!

Now this is how duet should be sung, not competing but complementing.

To sing like this and be as beautiful as this is a very very rare thing.

Good lord - how in the world could Johnny concentrate with a young Linda sitting close with those eyes that could melt steel and that voice. whew. Devastating talent and looks. Johnny was the man.

Linda Ronstadt is unique.❤

Live singing , no auto-tune. The best have left us.

Good lord she is such a treasure and here she's just getting started. Thanx Johnny.

Two of the most talented artists to ever walk onto a stage. Just my opinion.

Raven hair and Ruby lips, Sparks fly from her fingertips. The Witchy Woman herself, Linda Ronstadt ⛧

Linda's voice emotes incredible feeling. No wonder she's been a celebrity crush to many a man.

She was gorgeousss 😍😍😍

Linda sure was a cutie...still is today!

Well, this was just beautiful and soulful. Linda Ronstadt never, ever fails; and Johnny Cash's voice is so deep and rich.

Johnny Cash and Linda Ronstadt if they only knew how many people love them so much me I’m 76 years old I’ll never get the chance to meet them only in my mind and I’ll always be there for the rest of my day

Ms Ronstandt was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease, she is 67 years old, and had difficulty walking, never mind trying to do aerobics. Is not lack of discipline. Is simply hard to even do simple tasks. She has given us so much of her talent, just let her be.

I'm a doll collector and Linda has the face of my most beautiful doll.

What a fantastic duet. Two legends

She was so adorable. Still is. Prettiest eyes ever. And the most beautiful female voice of all time.

All the musicians that encountered Linda were devoted to her. She had tremendous musical chops, a remarkable natural beauty in her voice and her soul. She made us believe almost everything she wrapped that voice around.

Newer people, take note: This is what people should sound like when they sing. Not like soulless robots drowned by constant electronic noise.

I've been in love with Linda R. forever, and in my case many years. I've never seen her or any woman look more beautiful than she does here. And, she sings great also.

Wow! She was beautiful! What a knockout!

What a beautiful version of this song. She had such a dynamic and far ranging voice. A voice for the ages - there will never be another one like her. Linda you are loved and your music will live forever.

what a haunting voice she has. gives me goosebumps.

its now 2023 and still listening to this song for the last 5 years

And that Ladies and Gentlemen, is the best female singer ever to grace this planet

What the menfolk call smokin'. Linda's voice was as stunning as her physical beauty.

She hurts my eyes ....she is SO beautiful!

i work with a split screen, half side working, half side listening to the music. but when i heard these two, i stopped working and swallowed really hard! what voices, what talent!

I’ve loved Linda for over 50 years. God bless her.

The only gal singer for me. Watching and listening to Linda, can for a moment, give one back their youth.

Growing up in the 1970s, I always enjoyed listening to Linda Ronstadt's music. It's very sad that Linda can't sing anymore! Shame on the ones who made such cruel comments about her! Linda didn't ask to get Parkinson's disease!👧

This is so not over-rehearsed. It has a charm in that vs. overly produced numbers in today's music industry.

Loved her in the sixties, and seventies and still love and listen to her to this day.

She is stunningly talented and stunningly beautiful. There will never be another voice like Linda. She is the absolute complete package.

How pretty was Linda!

Love the way she swings her legs up and beams a smile after he kisses her cheek at the end. Really cute 😊

My dad used to sing this song. I love it, thank you. I miss him every minute of the day.

what a beautiful song from two of the greats to reach our hearts Linda you were & still are so beautiful i wish you well

I had forgotten just how gorgeous Linda was, Man oh man - and she could sing, too!

I saw Linda Ronstat when she was with The Stone Ponies in concert in Cincinnati! She was wonderful!

Nothing wrong with her now, we all age and age is beauty!

Linda was a complete knockout, every young Man's dream.

Wow, they are good together! Not too many can sing with Johnny....

Two legendary singers... Talent extraordinarily beyond the scope of definition... Rip Mr Cash..and Salute to you Miss Linda.....!!!

The US is blessed with a beautiful mixture of tunes, talents, and tones. Honor that because it is a great strength.

It's really sad people commenting on her now at 68 and how she gained weight, a century from now her name and music will still be tossed around and heard of, by then all you folks insulting her will be forgotten by your own genetic lineage,

Have some Mercy! Linda was a dream come true. A very wonderful sort of dream. On top of her dreaminess she was also a great creative talent.

Only recently “discovered” this song and I’ve worn it to shreds over and over .She’s such a natural beauty ...and so talented . Love the song

Look how beautiful LR was then!

Planet Earth had some pleasures to offer. This here is two of them. A smitten Johnny Cash and a young Linda Ronstadt. For the ages.

As somebody who became disabled in my early 60s, I find the comments on Linda's affliction with Parkinsons very cruel. One thing about life is that there always change whether we expect it or not. Linda had a fantastic career as a singer and has received numerous awards. She did not ask for this disease nor did she expect it to happen, just like Michael J Fox, so lets have some respect here!

I was in love with her in the 70's. She was beautiful and man could she sing!! I miss her and wish her well with her struggle.

I remember watching this show and at the time it was quite shocking that she was in a mini-outfit barefoot onstage singing before she joined Johnny Cash because people were not used to seeing that but when Linda opened her mouth and sang all were hypnotized by her stunning voice.

Two of the best artists ever singing together, i dont think it gets any better than this :) :) :)

Quelle pureté vocale de ces deux artistes exceptionnels !!!

I was totally in love with her. Some years after this was recorded (around 1978) I was working in an office. A new girl started working there. She was the double of Linda Rondadt. I was smitten and talked to her a lot and felt there was a connection. Then I met her boyfriend. Six foot six and full of muscle. The end.

Beautiful music and song.

Beautiful, miss you Johnny, love you so much Linda. Thank you for making the world a better place.😊

My Mexican hero when I was a little Mexican girl in the 1970's. Such a beauty.

Linda was absolutely beautiful 😍

I had her name mentioned before but what a beautiful voice and a gorgeous looking girl.This is what real music sounds like.

After all these years she still drives me crazy. Even in her earliest performances she possesses a magical voice and an ultra natural sex appeal. Johnny was a Linda devotee from the moment he first heard her and then he saw her and well...

Such a beautiful young woman...

Oh my goodness she was adorable!!

There’s only two kinds of men, those who love Linda Ronstadt and those who never heard of her. Willie Nelson

Can't believe how STUNNING LINDA was...and even though we all change in looks as we get older, Linda will always be a beautiful soul!

Must have been difficult for Cash to "Walk the Line" with this talented doll face so near. Gorgeous musical moment😘

Linda is so young and so pretty there, and she still is!

Thank you Linda, and thank you Johnny for that duet 👍🇺🇸 This right here is how music should be done 👍

My goodness Linda was almost too gorgeous here - visuals and voice. We all know the back story - don't we?

This is Linda as her complete package: beautiful voice, so expressive, and gorgeous.

Wow Linda was a Super good looking girl, and a very good singer and of course the Man in Black is the Greatest.

A wonderful old sad song done perfectly. Her clear, high voice and his gravelly bass. Just right.
