Music Monday: Linda Ronstadt and “When Will I Be Loved”

Linda Ronstadt on SiriusXM the Bridge

It has been a longtime since I’ve turned up the radio louder than normal in the car (my Menieres issues)actually I can’t remember when; it has been that long. Anyway, over the weekend I was running Linda Ronstadt in 1976out to the hardware store and picking up Brenda’s Sweet Sour Chickenfavorite takeout, Chinese “Sweet and Sour Chicken” while listening to SiriusXM channel 27 The Bridge. Linda Ronstadt’s memorable version of Phil Everly’s (Everly Brothers) 1960 top ten hit, When Will I Be Loved came on. I loved Linda Ronstadt’s harmonies that begin the song so I turned it up … and kept it playing louder than normal (do senior citizens still do that?) While listening it triggered a radio display photo for a Music Monday post.

Instead of the version off of her Heart Like A Wheel album, here’s and overseas live performance from YouTube in Offenbach, Germany back on November 16th, 1976 … and back then, I was still in high school!
