The first concert I attended was with Neil Young and Linda Ronstadt. Her voice was so powerful and beautiful. (Young wasn’t too bad, either.)

There are three kinds of people:
No talent, like me, but I have a good ear.

It's just different, special. Maybe you hear the songs that you can listen to a little different than everyone else.
My wife loved me like a husband and I'm not sure anyone else could. Special.

Love Linda. Got to see her in concert many years ago when I lived in Minneapolis. Tiny little thing in a Cub Scout uniform.

I have to watch the Eagles and her later. Dinner time finally!
