Hands down Linda Ronstadt.
Halloween 1979, first year of marriage and didn't have two nickels to rub together.
Linda came to town for a concert, and I was ready to sell blood or rob a bank to buy a ticket. Wife had more sense and kept me in check.
Newspaper had pictures of her performance and she came out in a skeleton suit singing Heat Wave.
Sweet Linda, I have her rock albums and CD's, her Trio albums with Dolly Parton and Emily Lou Harris, and her big band CD's. On Spotify I can listen to her to my heart's content. Read her book Simple Dreams.

Thanks, George.
I think so too, Aymee.
Very nice! It’s too bad you didn’t get to go to her concert.
Wife and I commiserate. She missed Elvis and I missed Linda.
And I would add she's one of the few people who have performed both Gilbert & Sullivan operettas and Warren Zevon rock songs. :)
She did rock, country, ballads, light opera, swing, duets and trios then added Spanish, a true wonder.
It was a really good biography, Yogi.
Love is a rose...Nice choice. Nice voice.
