Linda Ronstadt special on CNN tonight
Just a heads up- on tonight at 9pm ET. It goes without saying what a terrific talent she brought to the world. Humble and accepting of her Parkinson's.

Got it planned to watch. Major talent coping well with the dying of the light.

Saw it and recorded it so I can watch it again. She is a sweetheart and I love her voice. I have most of her albums and wore the grooves out of “Don’t Cry Now” and “Heart Like a Wheel.”

G'day!

Thanks for the head's up, Steve.
Long time fan here and really enjoyed the documentary. I learned a lot of details I never knew before about her interesting and amazing life and career. It was a fantastic documentary. FWIW, this album of hers is really good and worth looking into:  It was released in 1993. That was quite a special time in my life and so it brings back so many good memories, as well.

I really enjoyed it. Never knew much about her other than her songs. Really admired her determination to do unconventional stuff against "better" advice that turned out well. I remember her Mexican folk song phase- didn't know about the Gilbert and Sullivan stuff. She's fearless, and so gracious with her current situation. What a career she's had!

My survey Party Chief, Darrel Troxel played in her back up band when she was just starting out.

Just finished watching it. I'd always thought of her as Jerry's squeeze, but I guess that just shows how old I am.
She did have quite the voice. She's handling her current situation with an amazing amount of grace IMO.
