This new documentary seeks to correct the collective memory lapse that affects even those of us who grew up with Ronstadt's music. Ronstadt is our guide through her early years of singing with her family; her folk days with the Stone Poneys; and her reign as the “rock queen” of the 70s and early 80s.
With moving performance footage and appearances by collaborators including Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Bonnie Raitt, and Jackson Browne.
"Quick, name the Mexican-American singer who scored chart-topping hits from the late 1960s to the tail-end of the '80s, who put out six platinum-selling albums in a row in the '70s, and whose former touring musicians went on to become one of the most popular '70s bands. You say you don't know who that guy is? Yes, you do: That "guy" is Linda Ronstadt (those musicians in her touring band were Glenn Frey and Don Henley, who went on to form Eagles.)" - NPR
“It captures the life and career of a rock ‘n’ roll star who never looked back, never apologized, never compromised.” - Variety
