Ronstat certainly owned many of the songs she did. :)
i'm glad you enjoyed them. i've got a few more in mind, gonna wait and give others a chance first. when it comes to music i can kinda get carried away posting them.
yes, Linda Ronstadt certainly did take ownership of most of the songs she covered, she had a great voice and was a very beautiful woman. it is a shame that Parkinson's took that away from her 20 years ago. has to be horrible not to be able to do something you loved and people enjoyed hearing.
Quote:"I can sing in my brain; I sing in my brain all the time," she said, "but it's not quite the same as doing it physically. You know, there's a physical feeling in singing that's just like skiing down a hill, except better, 'cause I'm not a very good skier!"
Linda Ronstadt can no longer sing due to Parkinson's disease
