Linda at the height of her enormous talent. an amazing performance.

[leozimring]

Her voice is utterly beautiful! This is the best version of this song, bar none.

[jonasjar]

Very good! But don't forget to check out Radka Toneff before you decide which is the best female cover :-)

[WesterlyWindina]

It's Jimmy's music and Jimmy's song and Jimmy's voice - and Linda graciously supports the great man.

The world has still not come to grips with Jimmy Webb. i discover something wonderful and new each time I listen.

Linda is spellbinding.Is this video available on DVD?

[Loejyrrab]

Oh God I love her so much. Her voice breaks my heart in longing for her. Such a child of God. He touched her for sure. She could sing me hapilly to death, I would be content. Bless you sweet child Linda.

@BloozeDaddy76 You speak the truth Daddy! I just adore Jimmy's voice. So differfent, yet so special. I hang on every damn word, his words. He is a real man up there, not some trained set of pipes, but a normal guy expressing his deepest feelings. What a talent. And Linda, don't get me started. It is tragic that she wasn't MY girl. I love her to pieces. If I could just smell her hair I'd be satisfied. They were great together in this concert. Jimmy and Linda! It's now on my fav.list!

"and I need you more that want you and I want you for all time." What a fantastic line. Nothing like it in today's music. Fabulous performances...how wonderful that technology lets us hear this music so many years later. Thank you Kevin for posting this!
