The inductees for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Class of 2017 have been announced; and among them is one of Linda's spiritual heroes from the 1960s folk music explosion:
"I think honesty is of the first, utmost importance in art... any art. After that comes technique and... after that comes talent. Honesty is first. All the rest of the things are important, too, but they're secondary. Without honesty, I don't care how much technique you have, you have nothing."--Linda Ronstadt
