Linda Ronstadt has Parkinson's disease, a condition that has left her unable to perform.
The 67-year-old singer, who will publish her memoir, Simple Dreams, next month, revealed her debilitating condition Friday in an interview with AARP.

That was eight months ago, though she began experiencing symptoms, including hand tremors and trouble controlling the muscles that let her sing, years ago.
She attributed her problems to residual effects of a tick bite and shoulder surgery.

"No one can sing with Parkinson's disease," she says. "No matter how hard you try."
