In this documentary, Linda Ronstadt guides viewers through her youth in Tucson singing Mexican canciones with her family; her folk days as a co-founder of the Stone Poneys; and her reign as the "queen of country rock" in the '70s and '80s. Ultimately, her powerful singing voice was stilled by illness that forced her into early retirement, but her music and influence remain timeless.

As a longtime fan there were things I learned - mainly that she is even more amazing then I thought. She was so naturally gifted but worked to improve and diversify. Unafraid to go in new directions. I just love her.
