Really. I'm sorry I started this. But, if you love music, you owe it to yourself to check out some of the great bios and to see what motivated Lennon, McCartney, Springsteen, Dylan, and almost every other rocker. They are very deeply moved by social issues and it comes out in every note of their music . From the sound of your passion, I'll bet you would enjoy it. I know. I'm sounding condescending. I was mean-spirited and snide with my first comments. You can blast me with the last word.

[NonStopRocker]

I apologize as well. The last thing I want to do is get into a pissing contest with someone I dont even know. Sometimes I get too caught up in it and it just kind of spirals out of control. I appreciate your comment.

[napping7321]

I'm feeling a strange chemistry with you. Would you like to get together to see where this might lead? Meet me at the Piggly Wiggly on the corner of Redneck and Trailer Park at noon. Don't be late. BTW--your spelling isn't the problem. So grammar aint your thing? Who cares. See you at noon. I'll be wearing a bikini top and cut offs. Lighten up. I'm just joshin' with you. I'm sure you're a good egg if you love Ronstadt. She's the best!

[NonStopRocker]

Man, you really think that your the clever dick dont ya?....You think that you just slay people with your brilliantly, witty and insightful comments. You assume everyone on youtube are thick airheads and that you and you alone can enlighten them with your stunning genius..well, you play your little game, and sit there with your dictionary by your side, and build yourself up by tearing others down..but truth be known, I doubt that your intellect is superior to water plankton...!

[napping7321]

BTW--it's "you're" (contraction for "you are") not "your" (which is possessive.) Maybe I do have a superior intellect. Just maybe.

[NonStopRocker]

what loser...goes to youtube sites and plays spellchecker....the only thing you have superior clown, is your greatly overestimated opinion of yourself...not to mention a monsterously overinflated ego...do you truly believe someones politics have anything to do with their talent..?...shouldnt you be out on a ledge somewhere?

[NonStopRocker]

she couldnt help her weight gain its a medical condition I dont think shes ugly at all...whats revolting is the way you think of people!...hope people talk more kindly of you if you live to be her age.

Linda is hands down the most versitile female singer off all-time, not even close

[bookguitarguy]

@emjee Thanks a lot, I appreciate it emjee. Didn't know Russ wore his hair that short!! I still wish I'd been on that stage, with or without my guitar, and she'd been looking at me that way. Those eyes... :O| Thanks.

[bookguitarguy]

@blkpopeye Never understood why she never married. An interesting & special person, to be sure. Apparently she has some type of disorder that relates to her weight gain(?), but can't help but feel that having lived "alone" all her life, she might have tried to fill the void w/food, as so many do. I'll always love her anyway though... a successful, talented, sensitive female performer who managed to find her niche, & make a huge impact, without being an angry, man-hating feminist w/an attitude.

[emjee]

@bookguitarguy That is Russell Kunkel who played drums for Jackson Browne, James Taylor and Linda.

[blkpopeye]

I like all of her music, she was thin back at the beginning of her career ,but now she is a bbw...I have seen one of her recent photos in a tabloid, you know those paparazzis are relentless.

[bookguitarguy]

@napping7321 Nice to see you guys make up. :O) I too get pretty worked up on certain subjects, & have blasted my share of people on YouTube-like morons who tear down Amy Winehouse after she's died, & have fun mocking her suffering. Linda really wasn't very political during most of her career (outwardly, at least), focusing mostly on human feelings/love etc & making good music. When she DID exercise her freedom of speech she was blasted by fascist CENSORS-but pro-war flag-waving artists are FINE!

[bookguitarguy]

Does anyone know who she's with from 4:07 to 4:31, where a guy is playing drums and she's banging on a bell(?) and smiling?? I'm really curious what the occasion is, and who the lucky guy is, because she's looking at him rather amorously... :O)) As a guitarist, I would have loved to play with her (no pun intended), and to see those big brown beautiful eyes gazing at me as we made beautiful music together!! If anybody has any idea who/when/where that clip is from, please let us know... Thanks.
