Flashermac Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 I'd forgotten Linda Ronstadt was such a moose. Wonder what Jerry Brown saw in her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Himmaparn Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 She was quite a cutie when Jerry & her were an item... but certainly did not age well, did she? Her voice is still beautiful, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
