  • There’s just something about Linda’s voice that moves me more than anyone else. I’ve literally found myself wiping tears away not knowing what the hell just happened.
  • Dolly & Emmylou went to Country Music Hall of Fame in 1999 & 2000 respectively. CMHF needs to induct Linda while we can all celebrate with and for her. She earned it both musically and by promoting & bringing many more fans to the genre. It would also put the TRIO in a pemanent place of honor.
  • And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how it's done. Three of the greatest voices EVER, being backed up by some world-class musicians. Can't ask for much more. I was so glad that Carson gave them the chance to do three songs so each of them could take the lead on one song. I miss him. Those who THINK they are taking his place are just extremely poor pretenders.
  • All 3 are great with their own special talents. But I must say, Linda Ronstadt is the greatest, most diverse female vocalist of her generation.
  • @Mark_Brooks
    Lee Sklar bass, David Lindley on guitar, mando, Russ Kunkel on drums, Dan Dougmore, steel guitar, Mark O'Connor on the fiddle/mando, Herb Pedersen on acoustic guitar. An all star cast. Together they may have played on over 300k tracks in their careers. (Lee Sklar alone has 25k)

    Watch Linda, her right hand and the microphone.
    She does this in all live shows on video out there.
    She is every so subtly moving the mic up down left and right to perfectly position it for the vocal at that time. 1/8th inch here, 1/4 inch there.

    Few singers have ever done this.

    A true master of her craft.

    3 of the clearest purist voices I've ever heard.
    That they are contemporaries and managed to collaborate is PHENOMINAL.
  • @jackhana7374
    This folks, is as close as you get to perfection!! Zowie!

    I am originally from Belgium this is the first time seeing this. This indeed The Most Beautiful 3 Female voice ever recorded.
  • @andrewkling9530
    I'm pretty sure everyone on that stage reached legend status

    Perfection, Jimmie Rodgers would have a tear in eye had he been here to listen. Linda Ronstadt was the finest female singer ever to grace this planet
  • Even the guys doing their thing fine as ever..watch as they move these fine singing wonders along with encore and more..
  • @kooter11111
    There is just no words to describe these three voices accompanied by such a great group of musicians.
  • @almajuly4
    yes a trio will never be perfect without Linda Ronstadt
  • @sahoo82
    Emmylou Harris soulful solo is so haunting... Priceless trio
  • @shantibel
    Love them all. Linda's phrasing is just impeccable.
  • What I love about these women is that they are all strong singers with distinctive voices but they also harmonize beautifully.
