Viewer Alert: Linda Ronstadt Doc Airing New Year's Night On CNN

Just noticed this on a terrific oldies music board I monitor and thought some here would be interested. On New Year’s night, CNN is airing the premiere of a documentary called “Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice.”
 
It traces her amazing career and she reveals the stories behind some of her biggest hits – and how illness forced her to silence that once magnificent voice.
 
Airs several times, beginning New Year’s night at 9 PM (provided no big news breaks!)
 
More on the doc and additional air times here.

I've seen it already on Apple TV and it is really, really good.  When you put all the musical styles she has recorded in you see why she is so multi talented.

I saw this Linda-R doc at the Regent (or was it the Mount Pleasant?) Theatre a few weeks ago.

I really liked it as well; 'course, I'll admit, I'm quite biased.

Such a talented, determined, feisty lady!

I've seen it on Rogers On Demand. It was excellent! A very versatile singer who has done everything from rock to opera.

I originally posted this thread at the tail end of 2019. It's back again because I noticed that this documentary wound up airing Saturday night on TVO, of all places. I saw the listing earlier in the day, then got busy and forgot about it. 

But the good news is if this interests you and you missed it, it's not too late. The documentary is up and available for free on the TVO website. Not sure how long they leave these things up but it's likely to be there for a while. Well worth a look if you were a fan of this talented - and now sadly, silenced by illness - singer.
