Really enjoyed this memoir, which ran the gamut from childhood to retirement. Plenty of anecdotes and famous names, but the thing I learned is that Linda Ronstadt really has a deep appreciation for music. To read about how she can hear multiple musical influences in a given singer was wonderful; her description of the evolution of concerts to large venues leading to large sound rock (and metal) made complete sense. Not only is she a great interpreter of multiple genres and prolific entertainer, but she is primarily a student of music itself. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the craft.
