Linda Ronstadt - I Keep It Hid - Live 90's

[RonNYC100]

Years later now, when I hear this song, i get goose bumps.

A total triumph.

I have to find my CD of the Rainstorm album. It's a total gem. Linda was never in better voice and the material is fantastic.

[patdevitto]

Linda's voice has made my life richer. Really. So very moving.

At first I didn't think that I was gonna 'like this'! I've heard the 'song' before. And you know how it is when you 'know' it certain ways! :-) But I MUST Say.. THIS is PHENOMENAL! I LOVE it! And I appreciate this posting! And 'THANK YOU'!

God Bless!

I remember hearing this song growing up with my mom listening to it as she would clean the house. Although i acted like i didn't like it, I'm a thirty year old male and i love Linda Ronstadt's voice, mom knew good music, I've finally learned.

[EddieAlda]

Thanks for putting this up. A lovely live version ! I like the way she hangs on before the chorus begins. Linda has one of the best voices ever. I agree totally with others here - she should be in the Rock Hall of Fame. A weird omission.

[adcan45]

Amazing! No other singer comes close to Ms. Ronstadt.

[sescalante100]

Do yourself a huge favor and go see Linda Rondstadt perform live if you have the chance.I have never heard anyone ever sing better live than a recording,she blows the roof off!!!! AMAZING is all I can say

[adcan45]

@sescalante100 You are right; inspite of the fact that this is not a "professional" recording of her live concert--makes not difference; her Voice still sears the soul...

[sescalante100]

@adcan45 I wish she would make a come-back,there is no one like her simply amazing!

[sescalante100]

@adcan45 I wish she would make a come-back,there is no one like her simply amazing! so effortless for her.That is a perfectly trained voice!

[bobareebop]

Yes, "Shattered" is a tearjerker, but not nearly as much as this song!

[nnsor]

I'm an old time LR fan who's been to many of her concerts including this one for her album, Cry Like a Rainstorm. Personally, I think she peaked as a singer during her previous album, Get Closer and this one. She seemed to be in complete control of her voice and singing and the materials were first rate. Would have liked to see and hear her perform Shattered, a real tear jerker of a song.

[RonNYC100]

Unbelievable voice! I forgot how much I love this song and HER.

[willieshing]

greetings from little singapore.hav not heard wilson version or alice version.but not my fav track on the studio recordings...but wow she certainly pull it off live - effortless-vocal tour de force.

[pete6688]

Powerful version. Linda is awesome.

[Pacabelle]

Jimmy Webb's signature song - soaring melody and vocally challenging. Linda can pull this one off so effortlessly. This is one of my favourite songs by Webb.

[fabtastique]

fantastic song and an unbelieveable performance.... outstanding!

[jaqsdca]

I've been a fan of Linda's since I was 13 or 14. I saw her during this tour, and was thrilled and mesmerised.

[adcan45]

Only Ms. Ronstadt can take a song, any song, and record it beautifully, and sing it LIVE, and transcend it to the HEAVENS...

[StephenUS99]

The Mary Wilson version of this is excellent.

[albol08]

I love this song,but with Mary Wilson of The Supremes singing it. On The Supremes Produced & Arranged By Jimmy Webb. Which Linda did a great job also.

[prussell716]

Always been a huge Linda fan - and I adore this one live - absolutely breathtakingly gorgeous vocal - thank you!

[THEJLG]

I LOVE The Supremes and Mary's briliant vocal performance on the song b u t I must say my favourite version of the song is ALICE CLARK'S highly underrated version

[Noodleydoo]

Yeah--what a voice!

[theblueangel28]

Oh I love this one. I am living for your videos tonight!

How incredible, shes simply phenomenal.

[new926]

i've never heard this particular Linda Rondstat song, but it is a hauntingly beautiful and heartbreaking vocal. Thanks for posting.

[joejod]

AWESOME!

[coke2264]

Linda wrote the song TRY ME AGAIN from Hasten Down the Wind. I consider the song a great vehicle for her voice and a beautiful song. Carrie Underwood recorded it recently. I think Linda was intimidated by all the talent around her and decided to focus on her undisputed gift, the voice. I do believe she sold herself short though. She stopped playing the guitar publicly too. Being a perfectionist stopped her from experimenting with her own song writing.

[babbobubbyboo]

All I can say is "WOW". Best female vocalist pipes in the biz. Such a beautiful song and soooo powerfully sung. Thanks for posting!

[Azorka82]

Wow. This is challenging "Down So Low" as her best performance in my opinion. I'm not sure right now which one is best.

[Azorka82]

This is sung so beautifully. At first was disappointed that there's not better visibility, but quite happy to have this one. Especially after getting it by rummaging around around on one of her fan site chat forums. Kinda rewarded for the effort.

[Azorka82]

Thanks, just got this after browsing her fan site chat forum. Very nice.

[adcan45]

Brilliant!! Any more vids from this concert?

[rasputin63]

Linda + Jimmy Webb= pure magic.

[Dariuspersepolis]

brilliant SINGER, linda should be inducted into the HALL OF FAME

[Azorka82]

Reply to Dariuspersepolis:

No doubt. That boggles the mind. I've always assumed she had been.

[fpngan]

Nope, along with Heart and Pat Benatar, all three are missing from there. A bunch of bullshit if you ask me.

[babbobubbyboo]

Madonna's in the Hall of Fame, but none of these brilliant ladies. Yup...I'd say that's B.S. alright.

[solomonmorris7]

@babbobubbyboo A fucking insult and a major slap in the face to Linda and all she has done ...

[flightlessemu1]

@fpngan Spot on mate I agree with you 120% they ALL should be in the hall of fame.

[qimissung]

Do you think it could be because she mostly covered songs and did not write her own music? I mean, she wasn't a songwriter-and why wouldn't this glorious voice be enough? But sometimes things like that seem to matter-just a thought.

[adcan45]

yeah, I agree qimissung; when you have THE voice, as Ms. Ronstadt does, what difference does it make if she writes hers songs or not?

[wcoke22]

Amazing! I have never seen her perform this song, its one of my favorites. Thanks. There is no one like Linda. She does not get the respect she deserves from the public, but what does the general public know of talent?

[Blindcreek]

I have to agree with the other two posters here. What a powerhouse performance. I have always loved this song by Linda.

[pete6688]

Excellent! Dynamic vocal performance.

[ronstadtfanaz]

One of the best songs Linda has ever recorded! A truly fine performance. Thankyou for sharing it with us.
