That was the way it was ten years ago; for a woman to make it in the music world, she had to cede her femininity & be tough, to live under "the shadow of Tina Turner, feeling we had to do hot blues licks," as she puts it. But Linda predicted that it would change, & it has. She points to Stevie Nicks & Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac & the Wilson sisters of Heart & proudly says that they were able to become rockers without losing their femininity in the least.
-- "Linda Ronstadt,"

I wonder if Stevie and Linda ever met

I know of at least one occasion when they met -- the Mulholland Tomorrow concert Don Henley organized in September 1985. Ronstadt & Stevie were both on the small bill.
