Here's a lovely Linda Ronstadt recording that's not very well known:

I have always loved Linda. She was such a versatile singer. One of the first rock/country singers to turn to the old standards and did a trilogy of albums with Nelson Riddle & his Orchestra which were all excellent. Unfortunately she now has Parkinson's Disease and is unable to sing anymore. Nice photo below of Paul & Linda with Peter Asher and Linda Ronstadt.

She is an undoubtedly YES! Kind of forgotten along the way by the media, but never by me. Not since Stone Ponies/Different Drum. She is always good to hear from, and sang one of The Saddest songs of all time, "Long, Long Time" which was a hit for her. And it still packs a wallop.

It breaks my heart that she's going through a rough time with her health.

Audley's Piano:

That song Long Long Time is sure a tear jerker. And Linda's sings it with so much emotion and power. Another fave of mine is Someone To Lay Down Beside Me a minor hit from the Hasten Down The Wind album (great album) . She was forgotten a bit in a later years but I have most of her work and will always treasure it.

She became one of the top concert draws in the '70's, and I believe she has the distinction of being the first and only female artist to sell out stadium concerts during those years. One of the greats!
