I'm jumping ahead a bit here, but It Doesn't Matter Anymore. This Rockpalast  concert from Germany in 1976 is one of Linda Ronstadt's finest live performances and nothing to sneeze at. Gesundheit!

^^ Thanks Paul!

I'm always on the lookout for new Linda press coverage these days, but I can imagine (if there is any) it will be very seldom released

4 stars 1974: Linda Ronstadt - Heart Like a Wheel - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_mKCp9WeV8wvT6I5sa4GwfVF5nBQUK5UME

Linda Ronstadt with the best version of "You're No Good" - which is very good. A song originally recorded by Betty Everett and the Swinging Blue Jeans back in 1963 and 1964 respectively.

I love this  Neil Young song which has gone Round and Round on my CD player and it won't be long before I play it again,  featuring Linda alongside Nicolette Larson on background vocals. Heart

Desperado - Linda's flying high here  with a live 1977 version of the Eagles' classic where she really reaches those high notes.

As for the chick in the video... I try to imagine I am watching Linda, but then I'm brought back to reality Cry
