Linda Ronstadt can't sing anymore.


Do not know if everyone has seen or heard this, but Linda Ronstadt has been diagnosed with Parkinson's and can't sing anymore.

If one can say that a particular artist/group got them into high-end audio, she would be mine.

Definitely in my top 5 of favorite female vocalists.

Very sad indeed...

STEM CELL RESEARCH COULD BENEFIT people like L.R. but eight years of foot dragging certainly didn't help much. I would like to see radical new treatments IN MY LIFETIME if at all possible- and NOT just for singers but for thousands of folks afflicted with chronic illnesses all over the world. If we get our priorities in order that is.
then she could make another record, eh?
IF a cure for Cancer was discovered by some mad scientist tomorrow and the Cancer "industry" got wind of it he'd keel over from a "heart attack" within a week and hit a Bunsen burner on the way down destroying his lab and all his records.
Those eight years of stalling have given the rest of the world a huge lead in R&D so let's hope they're onto something soon.

As for Linda, I've always loved her music and even though she can't sing anymore, she still has a sharp mind and tongue to go with it along with the ability to not suffer fools gladly. She tell it like it is. I'd hate to be chewed out by her.

All the best,

Schubert, do you also believe that Lee Harvey Oswald was not the lobe shooter?
