LINDA RONSTADT
Fill My Eyes and The First Cut Is The Deepest
Moon & Star Concert as Cat Stevens very special guest
This segment is from the Cat Stevens Moon & Star Concert from 1973 at the Aquarius Theatre in Hollywood. The theatre has so much history from popular culture and to me this concert is the icing on the cake. Nice to see Lowell George of Little Feat on the guitar and some of Linda's regulars backing her up.

I can't get that darn Chandelier song out of my head. Worst earworm I have ever had. Is also difficult to find truly great performances even by established artists but here is one from our very own Linda Ronstadt.
Linda Ronstadt - Down So Low ( Live )
Linda Live in Germany 1976.From her album Hasten Down The Wind.

Poor Wandering One (live stage version)
Gilbert and Sullivan's raucous operatic tale is captured in all its fun and glory in this production, recorded live at Central Park's Delacorte Theater. Kevin Kline sparkles as the swashbuckling and libidinous Pirate King while Linda Ronstadt makes her theatrical debut as the lovely and virginal Mabel. When Mabel and Frederic, a young pirate bound to serve the Pirate King, fall in love, complications arise and high spirited antics ensue. The incomparable cast offers the best in this boisterous romp.
Despite some of the technical shortcomings of the DVD I found it more rewarding than the 1983 movie. I would thoroughly recommend adding a copy of this DVD to your library.

no video here but when Linda Ronstadt sings this song it blows me away every time
When I Stop Dreaming cornishwrecks.co.uk/lrfiles/1975McCabes/11_WhenIStopDreaming(pitch-125).mp3
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop loving you.
Well the worst that I've ever been hurt in my life
The first time I ever have wanted to die
Was the night when you told me you loved someone else
And you asked me if I could forget.
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop loving you.
Well you can teach all the flowers to bloom in the snow
You may take a pebble and teach it to grow
You can teach all the raindrops to return to the clouds
But you can't teach my heart to forget.
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop loving you
When I stop dreaming
That's when I'll stop loving you...

I believe this was the last song Nelson Riddle arranged for Linda before his death. It has a really dark edge to it. Wonderful version. Love the video.
