BOS3 Ms Ronstadt, "You're No Good". Her status as "queen of the cover versions" aside, this one worked because few had ever heard the original.

I eventually heard the original (Betty Everett, right?) many years later, and La Linda trumps it mightily.  Still, I associate this with '75 rather than '74.

TANC: Ms Ronstadt in today's Chron:

god, i love her. someone go see her at the bluegrass fest and take pics, please!!! she's spot-on about the cost of education, too. i told a friend earlier today that i used to cut class to go to the town bookstore (not realising what i nerd i sounded like). imagine if my mother had saved the money for private school!!! well...i suppose i was more challenged in private school than in public school. and there's no way in hell i could have played the truant in private school as often as i did public school.

Haha, BOS to Rockford Files theme just to spite the haters.

Caught the wonderful james Garner the other nite on TCM in Boy's Night Out, one of those early-'60s sex comedies they used to call "frothy".  Kim Novak at her peak, too.

Glad it arrived already!  Tell me "Shake" isn't one of the best dance-party rockers ever!
