Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice

[flat_topp]

On a side note troops, you are all showing your age with your remembrances of LR ! Great voice and yes, she was hot !

I'll plead guilty to showing my age. I'm not the biggest LR fan in the world, but I do have two of her LPs purchased back in the day … Greatest Hits from 1976 and What's New from 1983. Haven't played them in years, my turntable quit working a long time ago. Guess I'll have to look to replace them with those new-fangled CDs.

I grew up on Gilbert between Valencia and Orangethorpe.

Started out on Knepp, then moved up near Troy High (can''t remember the street name) but that didn't last long and we moved back to the 'old' neighborhood a couple streets over to Hill Ave.

I went to Fullerton HS, class of 76, and moved to Oregon about two weeks after graduating.

Yep, that is correct on Jackson Browne going to Sunny Hills.

My brother and I rented a house at 306 Hill Ave for a while. Right off Highland and Orangethorpe. We probably crossed paths at some point!

Thanks for posting this link, Ed. It's wonderful... it channeled a bit of Janis' breathless breaking notes, while still holding on to Kristofferson's melody in a purely feminine and impassioned performance. Loved it.

Another excellent cover of a classic is Pink's version of 'Me & Bobby McGee' The guitarist misses a change but its still great!
