Stevie incl. in Linda Ronstadt's R&R HoF Induction salute
http://www.latimes.com/entertainment...#axzz2xc3N5Fwn
Stevie Nicks, Bonnie Raitt, Emmylou Harris, Sheryl Crow and Carrie Underwood will come together to salute Linda Ronstadt upon her induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on April 10 in New York, while Bruce Springsteen, Glenn Frey, Questlove, Coldplay’s Chris Martin, Michael Stipe and Tom Morello will be among the performers and presenters on hand to welcome in the other 2014 inductees. Those will include Peter Gabriel, Nirvana, Yusuf (formerly Cat Stevens), KISS, Daryl Hall & John Oates, the E Street Band, Beatles manager Brian Epstein and Rolling Stones manager and producer Andrew Loog Oldham. Ronstadt, citing health issues related to her Parkinson’s disease, will not attend the event and is among three of this year’s Rock Hall class not scheduled to perform. “It’s something I never gave one thought to,” Ronstadt told The Times last week. “It wasn’t on my radar screen. Other people seemed to be way more interested in it than I am. It’s like other awards that have come my way: I’m delighted to get them and I’ve very grateful, but I didn’t work in music for that reason.” She revealed last year that Parkinson's had rendered her unable to sing. etc

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that she has Parkinson's. I always thought that she has been a class act. Thanks for posting.

So, Stevie is likely going to sing a Ronstadt hit. I wonder which one.
I like Different Drum, for her. Michele |

I love that song and would love to hear Stevie sing it. I know she could do it justice!

"You're No Good" gets my vote for sure!

"Poor Poor Pitiful Me" would be awesome, plus a nod to Zevon while she's at it.

Thats great news that Linda is going into the RR hall a fame.I love her and her tunes.I'm also glad that Stevie will be there with her.
It would be interesting to know what song Stevie will do at the induction. I love to hear Stevie do Blue Bayou.

Since Waddy was in Linda's band I expect he will be there as well...

Undoubtedly, Stevie will trot out "It's So Easy" because it's easier than having to rehearse something new. Any of Linda's recordings would be wonderful for Stevie - imagine a heartfelt version of "The Moon's A Harsh Mistress" - but I suspect she won't venture out of her comfort zone. Lazy bugger.

not to mention it was the first song she sang with Sharon, when she jumped up onstage at the Blue Max to sing with Sharon and her band, the night she then asked Sharon if she would want to be in her band when she put one together for her solo work.

Agreed Johnny. I remember seeing an audience recording of "The Rose" from that performance and it sounded great. I would have loved an official release of that.
Stevie frustrates me because she still possesses so much talent, but for whatever reason, doesn't always exploit her strengths. Even with regard to the upcoming Mac album, she's in a position where she could contribute 3 or 4 killer songs/performances, but I fear she'll only serve up something lukewarm and generic - ie way beneath her abilities. |
