Or Brenda Lee Or Etta James Or Carla Thomas Or, Diana Ross (as a Supreme) Or, if they're THAT myopic, what about JANIS JOPLIN?

I love Linda- although her penchant for singing every style of music under the sun leaves one to sift through her catalog for gems. Her early period is uneven and her vocal technique was still developing. I'm not really a huge fan of her 70's popular peak- with a few glimmers of greatness here and there. Too many stinky J.D. Souther songs and nostalgia covers. I love all three of her Nelson Riddle albums. Linda's best period is probably her late 80's through the 90's efforts. Feels Like Home is probably her best album ever- I think every song on that one is a keeper. Her cover of Petty's "The Waiting" is ![]() ![]() ![]() I don't think Linda and Stevie are really comparable. They just happen to be from the same era and have used many of the same session musicians. Other than that, their catalog and their musical composition are pretty much different animals. |

And it's not that I'm no longer a fan, I'm just not as knocked out by her as I used to be. The fact that it looks like she's not going to do another album, and is content to just rehash her old warhorses for endless concert tours has a lot to do with it. Plus, artists like Linda Ronstadt and Joni Mitchell have a much larger and more varied body of work than Stevie. I still like Stevie, I just find myself listening to her less and less. |

![]() I don't know if I should get that; it might be the most beautiful album in the world, causing my head to explode in a mountain of tears. J/K - I would love to hear that. ![]() ![]() Yeah, I think some people here said that Linda's voice sounds a bit clinical, or cold, but to me it doesn't. I think it can contain a lot of pathos. Maybe sometimes it sounds cold, but I haven't heard that song. (except, maybe, in Pirates of Penzance w/Kevin Kline. But I saw that in highschool, and her part seemed almost operatic, and the higher the notes, the colder the sound. ![]() Thanks for the tip. I actually wrote that down.

I do think she'll do another album, just give her time... I just don't get the attitude that some have over her setlist...I just don't...I don't know what people expect. Yes, there are some artists (like the fabulous Tori Amos) that change their setlists nightly, but the majority don't...at least not the ones I've encountered. As far as large and varied body of work, I can understand that...that's why I have my 3 divas...rock (Stevie), pop (Christina) and easy listening (Barbra) - to keep me satisfied ![]() I hope that you get a spark tho that makes you feel like something's missing...I always did.
