You Know It's Too Bad...

That Mindy McCready killed herself.

BUT...

I just read an article - on NPR no less - which attempted to make the case that Mindy was every bit as good as Linda Ronstadt.

Now listen people. McCready was not in the same league as Linda. And it's not even close. In fact I was completely disgusted by the article. It's just stupid to even suggest it. I doubt very seriously the writer is in any way qualified to make the case, and further I'd be willing to bet the writer wasn't even alive in the 70's.

Just goes to reinforce the old saying. Don't believe everything you read. I'm still pissed off about it.

Linda Ronstadt - Desperado (Simple Dreams Tour - Atlanta 1977) - YouTube

Careful Saintfan, you are showing your age.
I don't know anything about having a Linda Ronstadt 8-track myself, lol.

You're no good, you're no good, you're no good...

for saying that. Oh hell I may be old, but I'm not going to sit still while some idiot kid at NPR says something so clearly stupid as this. We gotta educate these young punks!

Think you guys are showing your ages???
I remember the Stone Poneys!

And SF is right....Mindy cannot possibly be compared favorably against LR.

NPR thinks Bieber has talent, so its understandable why they have such highregard for Mindy McCready
