nothing less than fantastic

@norby0418 Yeah it's a disgrace. Linda was the most versatile singer of her generation and could sing all these wannabe's now right off the stage.
-
@dsfddsgh I agree. Imagine a voice with that much talent and soul and she has the audacity to be pretty. I've been in love since 1967.
-
Its a good cover--doesn't blow away the original, but Linda gives her own interpretation and doesn't try to copy Holly--makes the song her own--that's why its lasted.
-
@norby0418 Better than Buddy Holly on this one? Come on, She's good but Buddy does it as only Buddy can.
-
Every cover she ever did was better than the original. Sold more records than any other female and most men in the 70's and still not in the Rock N Roll HOF!
-
I think that Buddy Holly would've liked this version very much. Mrs. Ronstadt never fails to do a good cover of a classic tune. I like it, anyway.
-
@apollion888 Thank you for sharing that.
-
Nobody but Linda could equal the original, Buddy Holly, on this fantastic rocker. What a voice. For my money, she tops the originals of Heat Wave and When Will I Be Loved.

I used to masturbate to her Rolling Stone cover, she's a Goddess :-)
Imagine that. A hot woman on stage with no 30 backup dancers and lip syncing. And not dressed as a complete hoe but rather sexy but tasteful. Man i miss the 70's.

She could've dressed in trash bag in the 70's and still looked good! She had a unique ability to take other people's songs and make them her own.
