There're also many opinions that Joe Walsh let Eagles not be Eagles. You better know there're many fans like Bernie era but dislike Joe era. It's just your opinion.Just like Tom Johnston era and Michael McDonald era Doobies were the perfectly different band under the same name.

As a "man of a certain age" I really appreciate this video. The Eagles really did the anthems of my youth. We lived many of their songs. Then there is Linda Ronstadt! Wow, any young man who wasn't in love with her had no eyes or ears. She is a total package. Not only beautiful, could sing ANY song from ANY genre but she was instrumental in helping tons of other influential musicians of the 70s and 80s made it. Who else could excel at hard rocking, country, folk, Spanish language and even opera! There were a lot of bad things about my generation (baby boomer) but I feel very luck to have lived in an era with such exceptional music such as this.

And New Wave and jazz standards! She was one of my early influences. When I was 14, I started working as a writers’ demo singer and got work in all genres of music all throughout my life. I’m 58 now. One of the reasons I was able to do that was because there was so much to learn from her and her remarkable versatility. Just an amazing artist and so, so lovely inside and out.

The loss of Linda’s voice must be unbelievably sad for her but also for the rest of the world. Thank you Linda for leaving so much wonderful material for us . Life can be so cruel. I find it difficult to believe in any forgiving higher entity when so many people succumb to such horrible diseases, having said that her voice is that of an angel. So pure.

Indeed. Great Singer. Gorgeous voice. Beloved by rockers and pickers, roadies, DJs and all of us. No comparisons - she was in her own Spectrum.

It's like a musical law......you hear Linda once and you have to hear again.

Greatest female singer of the twentieth century. She sang the songs that helped me get through my darkest times. I will love her always.

Linda was truly electrifying, but to say she was she best of the 20th century, well, we’ve had had our share of kick-ass female singers. Linda herself told a story of meeting Beverly Sills in a grocery store and she said Oh Ms. Sills, I must sing Mimi” (La Boheme.) And Sills said back “You and every mezzo soprano in the world my dear.” Repeating the story shows Linda’s heart and modesty, and it also shows she knew she wasn’t the absolute best. Listen to (and let yourself hear) some coloratura arias. The 20th Century had some totally stunning female singers. kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZnqrvK2jdq2TodI.html

@@themotiondoctor Ronstadt was clearly the greatest popular singer - in Concert she and that voice were mesmerizing. Surely some Opera and Jazz vocalists had it going on as well. A long long time ago I was in a fine restaurant in NYC - and Linda was there in the back with a couple of newspaper journalist guys and Beverly Sills. No one bothered them - they seemed to be giggling up a storm. When they left Sills and Linda were still laughing about something. Two very special songbirds from different ends of the musical forest.

Every decade has its good, bad and awful -- but the good from this period was *really* good. Linda singing with the original Eagles, case in point. These were real stars, based only on ability.

Joe Walsh brought it up another level, but Walsh was an OG compared to these guys, but even he admitted that as much of a pack of dinks that Henley, Frey (RIP), and Azoff could be, Walsh was still in awe of them.
