Linda Ronstadt – You’re No Good
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News
In 1973 i had hair like the conga player.
I had to make an accommodation to find work after i graduated in 1974 in the middle of the Arab oil embargo.
“You’re No Good” is a song written by Clint Ballard Jr., first performed by Dee Dee Warwick for Jubilee Records in 1963….
Ronstadt recorded her album Heart Like a Wheel with producer Peter Asher in the summer of 1974 at the Sound Factory; “You’re No Good” was a last-minute choice for recording…
both from wikipedia

“Must be because I had a flu for Christmas,
And I’m not feeling up to par.
It increases my paranoia,
Like looking at my mirror and seeing a police car.
But I’m not giving in an inch to fear,
‘Cause I promised myself this year
I feel like I owe it to someone….”
It’s a shame they took this down. It was recorded before she released her first album. This performance was better than the one on the album.
Judd: Realizing that the video is gone, I just did a search, but there are a lot of videos of Ronstadt singing this song. I don’t remember this specific one. Could you do a search to see if you can find it again and email it to me? I’ll then put it up again.
