My old college friend Llo just forwarded me an email about us seeing Linda. It jogged my ever-fading memory.
Quote:The doc covers a lot of territory, but doesn't mention Ronstadt's flirtation with modern classical music. She sings on two tracks on a mid '80s album by avant garde minimalist composer Philip Glass, called "Songs From Liquid Days." I saw the concert of the album, so I can at least say I heard Ronstadt sing two songs live. In one song she is backed by the female group The Roches.
The buddy who joined me for the concert, in San Francisco, thought he saw George Lucas in the audience behind us. At the time, the rumor was that Ronstadt had been dating (or had dated) Lucas, and my friend Gene and I guessed that Lucas had come to the performance to watch his girlfriend (or ex) sing. Looked like Lucas to me.
