by Linda Ronstadt
~ If you know how the Eagles were formed ~
It’s not like it snuck up on anyone that they started out as Linda Ronstadt’s backing band. So it shouldn’t be a surprise that she’s singing Eagles covers. And given how well she can sing, it shouldn’t be a surprise that she sings as well or better than the Eagles do.
In fact, she sings this song so well that it almost feels like the Eagles should give it up.
Her range and inflection go way beyond what you’re expecting from the guys. In it’s heyday, Linda Ronstadt’s voice was an instrument of mass destruction and this song showcases its range and power as well as any of her originals.
