'I didn't believe in religion from age six - I thought, that's bulls***' 🟠 Linda Ronstadt talks about the illness that ended her career, America’s attitude to immigrants, and Dolly Parton’s fried green tomatoes
. “It’s lovely to see Emmy,” she says of her former singing partner. “She always brings her laundry here when she’s on the road.”
Ronstadt is a genuine superstar, the only woman to earn five platinum albums in a row. She has 11 Grammys and her covers of “You’re No Good”, “Blue Bayou” and “It Doesn’t Matter Anymore” helped to define the sound of the 70s. PSP robbed us of one of the great voices of modern music – a singer Randy Newman dubbed “Mighty Mouse” because of the power of her vocals. Her final recording, a duet with Jimmy Webb, was in 2010.It must be painful not being able to sing any more, I suggest.
Her grandfather Fred later moved to Tucson, Arizona, which is why her life is something of a both-sides-of-the-border story. Ronstadt laments the demise of the community spirit she grew up around. “Mexican ranchers lived in a village and shared grazing land. Everybody helped each other. It keeps a very high level of morality, because if you steal from your neighbour, he’s not going to help with your fence next week. If your car breaks down, someone will come along and help. If you break down on the side of the freeway in Los Angeles, they’ll just run over you to put you out of your misery.
“I didn’t cook for Dolly Parton,” she says. “In fact, she cooked for me. She makes fried green tomatoes in bacon grease. It’s delicious. Emmylou makes a lovely pound cake. I only make a good butter and honey sandwich.”
