Well hell, I personally have always adored THIS version:
http://youtu.be/D090T2MSxKY
She sang it in concert at the TCC Music Hall in 1976 or 1977 and I thought every single piece of glass in the building was going to shatter and the ceiling was going to lift up and the angels were going to come and sit on the stage. So much power came out of that tiny package. I held my breath the entire time she was singing.

AzTheta, thanks for that. I had no idea Linda had covered it. Gorgeous.

I had to click on the link (even though I'm sick to death of this song) because for a minute I thought you meant Linda McCartney and I was scared.

It was so much "better" live, but then I have always thought Linda Ronstadt was superior live to any recording of her I ever heard.

My apologies.
(Though you know if it had been Etta James being discussed, Dr.Phil . . . And I'm just glad to see a post from you.)

Hi, MysticCat 
Did we discuss the Glen Miller (Mack Gordon/Harry Warren) original in the Etta James has died thread?

Very good point. No, I don't think so. It got discussed somewhere else (along with more recent versions of the song), but not in that thread I don't think.

I know. 
You all go create an "I Will Always Love You" thread like we did for "At Last."
