Lovesick Blues
Another excellent example of Linda Ronstadt's transitional period from the Stone Ponies to her solo pop stardom, "Lovesick Blues" is a country favorite, and its transformation here by Ronstadt and her band is more akin to something from the Flying Burrito Brothers' repertoire. In fact, Ronstadt's delivery, power, and phrasing makes the listener believe that she would have been an adequate replacement for the errant Gram Parsons for that then-seminal band. In this song, the simple, three-chord country melody is hot-wired to create a brilliant live version that was a staple of her act during 1970. Available on Ode's fine live album, Celebration: The Big Sur Folk Festival 1970.

In another area (Lovesick Blues), why does Linda sing, "I'm nobody's sugar mama now."?
I have to go to my Urban Dictionary for this one. Linda and LeAnn are from different generations. Womens Lib was BIG back then. If I were a libber which of these definitions would I choose? You will have to ask Linda that one
definition of Sugar Mama:
1. Sugar Mama 557 up, 178 down
A woman (often an older woman) who holds her man/woman in nice standing with money, food, an apartment, etc. -- not always used in a derogatory fashion, or merely in exchange for sex, but because she can.
"Why can't I find me a nice sugar mama to take care of me?"
2. Sugar Mama 223 up, 91 down
A distinguished species of older females who seek the company of younger males whilst avoiding the entanglements of a relationship, in favor of a lack of restrictions.
The sugar mama has overcome society’s proscribed behavior for women’s sexual behavior. Thus, embraces her true self and lives her life to its fullest. She know what she wants and isn’t afraid to hunt for it!
There are several species of sugar mama’s, but an insatiable sexual appetite and a lack of interest in marriage and other conventional romantic institutions are common to all.
definition of Sugar Baby
1. sugar baby 239 up, 145 down
A young female or male who is financially pampered/cared for by a sugar daddy or sugar mama in exchange for companionship (i.e. sexual favors).
Mary Ann bought her sugar baby a new iPhone, brand new lapop, and a nice flat overlooking the water after he gave her a decent humping last night.
2. sugar baby 267 up, 200 down
a woman who provides companionship and/or sexual relations for a wealthy, older man in exchange for expensive gifts and/or money; a "gold digger"
If you're a rich man and your woman pays attention to you only when she wants your credit card, you're bein' played by a sugar baby!

3. Sugar Baby 123 up, 125 down
A young, usually attractive girl (or occasionally boy), who gets things such as material possessions or help with paying their bills, for just basically being the "Arm charm" of a much older gentleman (or lady) and pumping up the older lady or gent's ego and rep. by being seen together. But, WITHOUT having to do any sexual favors for them.
"S'all uptown, Chanel gowns; Brownstones on 'laxin with the top down. What's that sound? Ching Ching now. Sugar baby need a sugar daddy now now; Sugar's gotta get out! "
