"...People who hold vacuous notions of social maxims and are easily led down the socialist path with obvious lies, regardless of any material accomplishments, are not special, unfortunately. If they were special they would be rare..."
I don't really care about Linda Ronstadts' personal idiotic blatherings. She's the logical result of the left-coast, drug-induced, socialy-unconcious, R&R, nit-wit, easily-led, mentality! They tend to head leftist-socialist in the misguided idea that they were all 'victims' of Right-Wing 'McCarthyism', when in fact, it was Hollywierd itself that did its' own blacklisting.
I still have a VCR tape of her concert on HBO or Showtime from years ago titled: "What's New". I play it once or twice a year, just to hear the songs, and she still sings beautifully.
Just because these air-heads go nuts in their dotage, doesn't mean that we can't still enjoy the songs that we liked years ago. And I still enjoy The Everly Brothers! (They never went politically-nuts)................FRegards
Her hook-up with Nelson Riddle Orchestra was wonderful!
Great music!!
