Linda Ronstadt With The Eagles: Silver Threads and Golden Needles




Linda Ronstadt's backup band in the early 1970's went off on their own and became The Eagles, probably the most successful American band of the 1970's. Linda was delighted with their success, and of course a couple of years later she hit it big, too. 

Linda recorded this song twice. On her 1969 solo debut album Hand Sown . . . Home Grown (with her siblings singing backup), and she re-recorded it for her 1973 album, Don't Cry Now.

Here she is performing the song with The Eagles, and a good time was had by all!
