I’m only singing for 70 years and playing 60. This woman has no apologies to make for this rendition of Blue Bayou. Almost every about it is perfect. Never heard of her before now. Her range of emotion delivers. Take that to the bank.
Wow! Ashleigh sings this just as beautifully as Linda Ronstadt ! Also, must say the backup band is as polished as Linda's band. They perform the whole package. Fabulous job by all.
I've been listening to lots of people sing this, looking for an ultimate version. I think this is it. Linda Ronstadt's version is great, but her voice gets shouty at the high notes. Ashleigh's version always sounds rich and mellow, throughout the range.
My 2 favorite Roy Orbison songs are "Blue Bayou" and "Pretty Woman" Here is a great version of Blue Bayou by The Linda Ronstadt Experience that you might enjoy.
"Blue Bayou" é de autoria, de Roy Orbison e Joe Melson, escrita em inglês em 1961. "Blue Bayou" foi originalmente gravada pelo próprio Roy Orbison no final de 1961. Muito linda é também versão de Alisan Porter.
