Jamie Ludwig Chicago Reader The film successfully paints Ronstadt as a whip-smart, boundary-breaking artist... But it shys away from critically evaluating her accomplishments while portraying her as somewhat forgotten in today's music scene, which seems a tad unfair. Mar 9, 2020 Full Review Linda Ruth Williams Sight & Sound Mostly, the documentary makes you want to take a deep dive into her discography, especially that amazing run of albums from the 1970s, and that's one of the best things you can ask from any music documentary. Oct 2, 2019 Full Review Scott Marks San Diego Reader CNN Films could have taken a lesson from its subject by not pulling any punches. Rated: 2/5 Sep 27, 2019 Full Review Richard Crouse Richard Crouse It's wonderful to hear the music, to be reminded of the width and breadth of Ronstadt's daring and talent. Rated: 4/5 Jan 31, 2021 Full Review Charles Koplinski Reel Talk with Chuck and Pam The film will rekindle your love of this woman, her extraordinarily clear and powerfully expressive voice, and her music and style. Rated: 3.5/4.0 Nov 21, 2020 Full Review Dan Buffa KSDK News (St. Louis) Documentaries are at their best when they are telling an interesting story that not enough people know about. You can add Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice to that list of highly worthy documentaries. Nov 10, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

If you are not, you will leave with a great respect for one of the best female vocalists of our time. God Bless Linda Ronstadt!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/26/19 Full Review Mark DeMille Excellent editing/compilation of her history. Classy at it's best. This is a story that should be told Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/25/19 Full Review Donna Mays M G If you are a fan of Linda's, this is is a must-see! I love the biography aspect & the interviews with her peers. I do have to say, this may be better seen on a smaller screen as there was some pretty grainy videos, but it wasn't horrible. It's well worth your time! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/10/19 Full Review A T N Really great to hear her story told first person. I learned a lot I didn't know about her. Even though I lived through most of the time detailed in the video. Excellent presentation, excellent use of her songs. Thank you for making it available! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/07/19 Full Review Lynda L S We liked how she was able to tell her story n way that we could relate. Learned how significantly the use of voice can affect ones life.
