Linda Ronstadt peaks at #5 today in 1977 with her cover of “It’s So Easy”.

It was “an afterthought that we threw in,” she said, while recording her “Simple Dreams” LP. “We needed an uptempo song because we had so many ballads.” In arena-concert tours, “anything with nuance or subtlety got lost.”

Senate Armed Services Dems are calling the Pentagon investigation into Sen. Mark Kelly "an outright, brazen abuse of power" in a letter to the Navy Secretary.
