I well remember Different Drum and the airplay it got on the AM stations at the time. Nice catchy pop tune.
But the Stone Poneys opening for Paul Butterfield, or the Doors? The 60s were a strange time.

Yes, she did. I was never much of a concert goer, but a pair of tickets to a Linda Ronstadt show fell into my lap ... oh ... 40 years ago. How time flies. She sang beautifully, but what I remember is that she stood onstage almost stock-still, like a little girl afraid of the audience. Odd affect, but it worked in concert.
The best artist in concert I ever saw was Neil Diamond, also 40ish years ago. Leave aside whether you are a Neil Diamond fan or not ... he had total rapport with the audience, and was the most responsive rocker I ever saw. A class act.

she’s one of the biggest brain-dead GOP and Bush haters around. During the Iraq war, this twat bitched about conservatives and the Iraq war like we were the plague. F*** her.

I heard the song earlier this week. “I ain’t sayin’ you ain’t pretty...It’s just that I am not in the market for a boy who wants to love only me...” Far out and groovy.

She was cute back in the day, but I never cared for her music or her politics.

Sorry to hear that news about Ms. Ronstadt’s voice. My Dad died of Parkinsons...he was a big, strong man, always full of life and verve. The disease robbed Dad of all of his muscles to the point he couldn’t sit up, roll over, swallow or talk. But he would always manage a crooked smile and his eyes would gleam. Never once did he complain about his fate, either. He taught me a lot about being a man.
It is a horrible disease and I’m fearful of it.
To: max americana
Sheesh, max. You sound just like a hateful, mean liberal. We are better than that. Where’s your compassion and forgiveness?
