- Singer-Songwriter Karla Bonoff in concert & behind the scenes shot in the last 1980's. This video also features Linda Ronstadt. Karla is singing one of her famous songs, "Tell Me Why" which was made famous by Wynonna Judd.
Karla Bonoff is a great writer, singer, and performer. It's a shame she has never really gotten the recognition she deserves. always behind the scenes.
Indeed
Seems to me, that being a successful songwriter has gotten her the attention, respect and certainly the monetary rewards she deserves.
She’s pretty, and does have a nice voice, but compare her version of “Lose Again” to Linda’s and you can see her excellent songwriting has been her major strength.
It’s not an unusual phenomena by any measure. Look up Jimmy Webb, Townes Van Zandt, Hoyt Axton, Dean Dillion…. All excellent songwriters. Just don’t have that extra it that’s completes the package. And so few do.
When Linda lost her voice, her musical career was over.
Karla can write as long as she’s inclined, whether she can perform or not.
It’s definitely suitable for the marathon that is life….
I suppose it was Karlas name on my Linda Ronstadt records that made me buy her album in 77. It’s about worn out now, and she has always had my recognition!
Agreed
I love her too ❤.
I was 20 years old.I worked in a record store and I fell in love with her sound.I still get so emotional listening to her.
Oh how I love this woman! It is hard to believe I have been listening to her since '77. Linda owes many of her greatest hits to Karla
New Karla Bonoff fan just created.
It's so cool that Ronstadt is backing her up, but also sad that Linda can't sing anymore
But one thing she does have is so many memories of touring, private jams, get together's on the patio . Wow what a life that only we could dream of.
So underrated a singer/songwriter. I love her!!
Totally
Love this … friends singing a great song together. Linda is perfect backup to Karla.
And were it not for Karla's songwriting Linda would not have had nearly as many hits
Love this, the original version of the song...and Karla is absolutely beautiful...
Saw her in person a couple of years ago at Eddies Attic in Atlanta. Front row center, twelve feet away. Amazing. Saw her back in the 70s opening for Jackson Browne and enjoyed her ten times more than Browne
I do so love Karla Bonoff.
Her version beats Wynonna's, IMHO> What a songwriter! What a performer!
Yes, I think so too !
Maybe because she ŵrote it ❤
Having been a fan of Karla's since the Restless Nights album , I had the absolute pleasure of seeing her at the Grey Eagle Music Hall in
Asheville, NC just recently ...she and Nina Berger were wonderful !!!
Karla was very down to earth, funny and just a nice person and guess what ? She hasn't aged a day since Restless Nights ? She looks the same as on the album cover !
She's very pretty and has a killer smile !
Nina was awesome and played the Ukrainian anthem which captured my heart.
If you weren't there you missed a great performance !
It was a night to remember !
This song comes off her 'New World' album; which is still one of my favorite albums ever!
Linda Rhonstadt singing back up! Wow!
Unsung songwriter....they don't make 'em like this anymore !!! Young songwriters .....TAKE NOTE !!!!
Far and away my favorite Karla Bonoff song. It is kind of ironic that Linda Ronstadt should be doing back ups for her, since Karla wrote some of her greatest hits.
Foxes and Fossils have a cover of this song that is so good.
The True Singer and Song Writer! ...and way cool Linda!
It's a great song. It's just different voices. Both are wonderful.
Love me some Linda Ronsradt
Both Karla and Linda belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Both hit well in pop and country! No Linda = no Eagles!
@@WineSippingCowboy No Karla, no Linda. Karla wrote some of Linda's biggest hits

Just saw her last night. Still wonderful.
Oh my gosh she's awesome !!!
Karla, please come to the UK. It's so unfair that your fans can't see you live !
love Karla. Would love to see her again.
One really super album back in the day. Sweet voice. for sure.
Sweet lady, too.
excellent! what a doll-- and superlative pop songwriter!
Karla Bonoff played with J.D. Souther and Kenny Edwards in Pasadena in 2010, shortly before Kenny passed away.
Is that Linda Ronstadt as her vocals in back?
Someone took the keys and we're back here!...sad to lose someone you love when a dream's power of a dreamer can't help but see into another woman's life..sovereignity in great fear..Yei Yei Yei!..and never will I be here!...Wynonna! as Our; The Queen of Hearts!
Dang me, this is a great song.
Enjoyed this! Thanks for sharing.
リンダとの共演、いいですねこういう映像もっと観たいです。
Still beautiful. Miss ya Linda. Need to spend time on figuring how to download as a video.
Our Computer Searching as The Kingdom of I Am Music!...Did You Write this Absolutely Excellent! WAMU USA!....(I think that she said it "you're family"!)
this ia great song🙋♂️🎸
She is very sweet and gracious
Doesn't get anymore organic than Karla! Supernatural x 10!
Mark Goldenberg on keyboards, even. He wrote "Justine" and other songs Ronstadt sang, and was Jackson Browne's lead guitarist for years.
Really doesn't sound too much different than Wy's version. I always thought hers wouldn't sound too much different if I heard Karla's version. I'm glad I finally heard it, now. Thanks!
Been a while... last seen opening for James Taylor at the Mann in the 80s, I think. What an exceptional artist. Wonder what she's doing these days.
The live version actually sounds better, you can really hear Linda's voice more harmonizing with Karla
@sorchard100able Linda has sung backup or duet with Karla previously, most notably on "The Water is Wide" (the album studio version).
tune from her last and ending album in 1988
Yes to Linda. And who is the drummer? Is that Jim Keltner?
They want to block the Wynona video, due to copyright infringement,
I think this is better than the cover by wynona. Karla wrote it and sings it
Karla with a K, I named my daughter after you...
reminds me of "back in the chain gang."
Karla Bonoff...one of the best singer/songwriters of days gone by; she should team up with JD Souther for some shows....just sayin'
Karla was one of the best, with a voice just as good as Linda's...
Great suggestion with JD.
I sure miss Glenn.
@Erik Von Handorf Actually, I had tickets to see this show, and had to miss it due to health issues....I was literally sick about it...I did get to see JD Souther on a prior occasion at City Winery, even got to meet him! He is a class act! Love him!
They should have made babies 👶
Is that a hotdog bun hanging off the lead’s guitar tuners?!?! 🌭 2:20
Guest stars: Linda Ronstadt, backing vocals, Peter Frampton, lead guitar, in studio NOT in video.
The information I have said it was Kenny Edwards and Karen Blake on backing vocals on the album .
Wikipedia agrees with you and also with my reference to Peter Frampton.
Linda Ronstadt is in the video but not in the studio.
Question: Who is lead guitar? That guy is really decent
I like Both takes. Karla's is softer, Wy's harder and faster..
Rock and Roll! Black Lives Matter!
TO DAN IN ALBANY OREGON
Love the song. Ms Bonoff is a great writer, and a good singer... but not a great one.
It's a good change of pace from wynona Judd's but wynona is better
This mix sucks
i liked wynonna judds version better.
Me too.
Wynonna sings this song much better. Sure!
Wynonna's version is much better.
No way.
Danielle, the key word in your post is 'version', How can a version be 'much better' than the original? I have heard Wynonna's cover( for that is what it is), and it is very good. Is an artist of today painting the Sistine Chapel (with all the latest electronic tools he has today), much better than Michelangelo? BTW, where are the Judds today? Karla Bonoff is still performing at 67!
Don't think so. Have another hit.
No one does it better than Karla...loved Karla for over 40 years...only fitting that Linda sings back up since Karla wrote a number of Linda’s hits
Wynonna must've liked it. Hers is pretty much a carbon copy.
