Linda Ronstadt: Greatest Hits

Amazon.com essential recording
Linda Ronstadt's appeal crossed so many genre lines it's impossible to categorize her as anything other than a gifted vocalist. She enjoyed success on country and rock charts alike with a voice that capably handled the requirements of both styles. There was a commanding roughness to her you-did-me-wrong classic, "You're No Good," that mixed both soul and R&B stylings into her vocals. In a similar vein, she handled the Motown standard, "Heat Wave," like a pro, this time giving it the slightest hint of a country twang. She even rose to the occasion of covering Buddy Holly's "That'll Be the Day." Rondstadt had some of her best moments with material that had a more emotional element, regardless of genre. "Love Is a Rose" and "Tracks of My Tears" are good examples of the disparate styles she could navigate with equal aplomb. Greatest Hits doesn't chronicle Rondstadt's hits past the mid-1970s, but is still worth owning, not only for the songs themselves, but as a point of reference in her career. --Steve Gdula

Greatest songs of all time........2006-09-09

"Greatest songs of all time" is what this CD should be called. This is the first Linda Ronstadt album I ever bought (in 1976) and within two weeks after buying it I owned all the rest of her albums. I absolutely could not get enough. Still can't. I feel that this CD is a great one to buy your kids, no matter what their age. It's a chance to show them what quality music is really all about. Just be sure to get a copy for yourself while your at it. It will bring back old memories, all the good ones. I know it makes me feel like I'm 17 years old again. Thank you then, and thank you now Linda.

I bought this CD because my cassette finally wore out.
It was great back then, and it's still great.

Linda's Latest! (2-6-06).......2006-02-08

Don't know how many of you are aware, but Linda's latest recording has been played on Al Franken's Air America Radio program, which airs from noon to 3:00 weekdays on AAR. The song is an adaptation of "Johnny Angel" in which Linda sings the intro song for one of Al's regular guests--Johnathan Alter of Newsweek. The song is "Johnny Alter....how we love you..." You oldtimers remember the tune...As everything she does, it's great! : ) [If you don't have a local radio station, it's accessible at airamericaradio.com!]

A Good Sampler of a Great Talent.......2005-02-07

I was such a little completist in high school and college that I would never have considered buying ANYBODY'S "best of" or "greatest hits" package. It only became an issue when some marketing genius--sometime in the 70s--came up with th idea of bonus tracks. When it was released on vinyl,--LINDA RONDSTADT'S GREATEST HITS didn't have any such extras. It was plainly a package for the casual fan, and so I avoided it. After all, it wasn't as though her actual albums were full of throwaways. Linda, especially after she hit her stride in the early 70s, could usually be counted on to come up with a rewarding package of varied styles (something old, something new, something country and something blues) to make all releases worth the purchase price.

At least throughout the 70s. By the late 70s and early 80s, the critics--and even some fans--ere starting to grumble that things were getting too formulaic, and Linda herself was starting to get a little restless stylistically (and started dipping her toe a into New Wave, and then taking on the Great American Songbook, mariachi and light opera). But there was a special feel to the 70s era, and that period is well documented on this particular collection (along with a few choice tracks from her earliest 60s era recordings as well).

The 70s material--especially the albums produced by Peter Asher--were marked not only by intelligent song selections and quality vocals, but also by quality production. Those early Asylum albums (and of course, HEART LIKE A WHEEL, her contract-closing release for Capitol) had a kind of aural sheen to them that seemed to mark a new era in r'n'r production values. Late 60s hippie slapdash was suddenly replaced by slick, but still warm production values. Some saw it as a SF vs. LA thing. I just thought of it as recording technology marching on.

And of course, Linda was growing as a singer and interpreter. Her work with the Stone Poneys and her early Capitol solo albums showed a singer with real potential, but also one who had yet to completely grow into her voice. By the DON'T CRY NOW and HEART LIKE A WHEEL era, she was singing with newfound confidence and conviction. Compare the charming, but slight "Different Drum" to almost any other track on this collection and you'll see how much she grew as a vocalist within the span of four or five years.

I suppose that if I had to pick the definitive Ronstadt track of the era, it would have to be this collection's opener (as it was on HEART LIKE A WHEEL as well) "You're No Good." It is almost a perfect rock recording. Tasty guitar, great vocal with excellent backup (by Clydie King and Shirley Matthews), and those elegant strings at the end. If anything just screamed hit, it was that song.

Whether it was necessary to follow that particular single, which was a remake of an old Doris Troy r'n'b classic--with a string of other remakes of classics, was doubtful The Buddy Holly and Everly Brothers remakes always struck me as somewhat less successful. Unlike "You're No Good," they didn't seem to recast the song in any new or meaningful way. And her albums were full of excellent tracks, so just why the suits at the record company (or companies) felt that every single needed to be a remake of a golden oldie was unclear to me.

Songs like "Deperado" and "Love Is Rose" by (then) contemporary composers proved that Linda could do more than just remake the hits of the previous two decades. Her albums offered even more testimony to her versatility, of course. And for more serious fans or even the curious, those might be preferable to any "greatest hits" collection. So why am I the original completist recommending this.

It's this simple. When the CD revolution came about, I was one of those holdouts who refused to give up my vinyl. When I finally did accept the inevitability of CDs, I resolved not to play into the industry's hands by replacing every single vinyl album with its CD equivalent. Linda Ronstadt ranks pretty darn high in my pantheon, but I still chose to go with the "best of" collection rather than replace six or seven entire albums. I still have a turntable and will drag out the vinyl versions from time to time. But this is a good enough package to meet my present needs. If you're like me, this or any of the other available "best of's" may suffice. If you are either an old diehard fan or a brand new convert, you may want to consider the complete works, however. I doubt you'll feel cheated.

Woefully Incomplete.......2004-11-20

Linda Ronstadt is one of those singers who can manage to put a country flavor to just about anything she sings. However, she has sung songs in a wide variety of styles, so it is difficult to rate her as a singer of a particular type of music. Her ability to put a country twang into a song does make me wonder how she would handle a song like Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven."

Linda has a great talent and has had hits well beyond those on this collection. While this collection was fine in the days of vinyl, with the advent of CDs there is little need for this CD. There are bigger and better collections of music. The music included here is good, but the CD should be re-titled "Early Greatest Hits" or "Here's Our Way of Milking Fans for More Money Because You Still Need a More Comprehensive Collection."

Moving past my gripes about the CD, there is some really fun music on this CD. "Silver Threads" was a minor hit for the Springfields in the early 60s, after being sung by Wanda Jackson in the 50s. Linda's version is more rockabilly than the Springfield's version; a good cover of this song. "Desperado" is a cover of the Eagles song. Her clear voice brings a stronger country flavor to this song, but I prefer the Eagles version, which I believe has stronger feeling and power. Linda shows her flexibility in "You're No Good" as she manages a bit of soul.

Linda Ronstadt manages to sound as though she came right out of the hills on "Love Is a Rose." This heavily bluegrass flavored song still retains a rock influence, particularly with the percussion and a bass guitar. In the following song, "That'll Be the Day" she again manages yet another country-flavored song with a rock beat. Her voice is well matched to the requirements of this song and is an indication of how well she could have been a country music star had she remained in one genre.

"Long, Long Time" is one of those incredible songs that any singer with a good voice should have in their repertoire. Linda has both the range and ability to sing this song with the kind of emotion required to pull a listener into the words and music. This sumptuous ballad is one of the few songs on this CD that require substantial vocal talent to execute and Linda does it very well indeed.

"Different Drum" is yet another musical style, this time 60s pop. While the song has a standard pop beat and catchy lyrics, Linda's voice managed to flavor the song with a character that changes this song into a classic. One anachronistic touch is the use of a harpsichord. Many 60s songs used a variety of unusual instruments to achieve a different sound. This song was penned by Michael Nesmith of The Monkees. I like this song, but the fade at the end and my recollection makes me think that the end of the song may have been clipped. If the song was not clipped the fade was handled poorly.

Switching back to a country flavor is "When Will I Be Loved," a short, AM-friendly song. While the song is relatively simple Linda Ronstadt manages to take charge of the song with outstanding vocals. Another country styled song, "Love Has No Pride." While the style is familiar, the clear, powerful vocal is the focus of this soulful ballad. With the exception of the song discussed just below, the last two songs are also country style songs, a genre that Linda Ronstadt seems to favor.

This collection changes pace as she belts out a rocking versus of "Heat Wave." No fuzz on this song, this song is solid pop-rock.

To be a fan of Linda Ronstadt is to be a fan of power vocals. Her style is eclectic; her skill sublime.

This collection has some good music. However, as noted at the start of this review, this collection is woefully inadequate. Linda's career has spanned Spanish language recordings, numerous later hits including the phenomenal "Somewhere Out There" with James Ingram, and albums of classic standards with Nelson Riddle. Against the breadth of her ability is this relatively paltry album. If you are looking for just her earliest hits, you may stop here. But if you are out to appreciate Linda Ronstadt's career, pass this one by in favor of the bigger collection, or a future box set with much more scope.

The latter part of the '70s found Ronstadt roughing up her image a bit, covering songs by the Rolling Stones and Warren Zevon and eventually taking inspiration from the burgeoning punk and new-wave scenes. All of this was a long way away from the laid-back country-rock sound that established her as one of the top female artists of the day. On the material collected here, Ronstadt remains as strong a singles artist as ever. Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 contains winners such as "It's So Easy," "Blue Bayou," and the Chuck Berry romp "Living in the U.S.A.," as well as edgier material such as the Stones' "Tumbling Dice" and Zevon's "Poor Poor Pitiful Me." --Daniel Durchholz

Greatest songs of all time #2.......2006-09-09

Everything I said in my review about her Greatest Hits, Volume #1 goes double for this one. Nuff said. Thank you linda.

Linda at her peak.......2005-01-08

the first Greatest Hits (1976) for Linda Ronstadt caught her as she was still a rising star in the California sound. Greatest Hits Vol. 2 (1980) is the culmination of the peak years of Linda's popularity, 1977-1980.

When "Greatest Hits" was released, Linda was still pushing Hasten Down The Wind (also 1976). In early 1977, she had a surprise hit single with "Someone To Lay Down Beside Me", which is included here. The song was not one of Linda's biggest, but it's a powerful, memorable track.

In the fall of 1977, Linda released her biggest album ever, "Simple Dreams". The album contained no less than four major hit singles, two of which ("It's So Easy" and "Blue Bayou") were on Billboard's top 5 at the same time in late 1977. "Blue Bayou" showcases Linda at her best Patsy Cline vocal moment, "It's So Easy" is a classic country-rocker, "Poor Poor Pitiful Me" was a great and sarcastic Warren Zevon number, and her version of The Stone's "Tumbling Dice" shows just what a great female rocker Linda is.

The next year, Linda topped the charts again with "Living In The U.S.A.", in which three hits are culled. "Back In The U.S.A." is sadly one of the weakest hits of her catalog. The Chuck Berry version is classic, but Linda's version is rather aimless. However, all is made up by Linda's smash top 10 jazzy version of "Ooh Baby Baby". Another classic Ronstadt-style track is "Just One Look".

Even though "Living In The U.S.A." was another #1 platinum smash for Linda, it became obvious her formula was getting stale. So Linda decided to shake things up and returned in early 1980 with "Mad Love". Guarenteed to show the Benatar's and Harry's that she is still a force to be reckoned with, "Mad Love" became another huge hit, even if it missed #1. The hard-rocking "How Do I Make You" was the first single and it quickly went top 10, then Linda released a breathtaking remake of "Hurt So Bad" that became an even bigger hit. The third single culled from the album, "I Can't Let Go" harkens back to her Stone Poneys days, but updated to sound 80's.

"Greatest Hits Vol. 2" was released in late 1980 and was the culmination of this stellar hitmaking period in Ronstadt's career. One more rock album (1982's Get Closer) after this and then Linda settled into the world of standards, Adult Contemporary and Spanish music, all genres she has done well at too.

Chopped off ..........2004-09-16

This compilation covers Ronstadt's biggest hits from the late '70's/early '80's. Some lesser singles were excluded:

* "Rambler Gambler" (#42 Country) was the B-side of "How Do I Make You," but did not appear on the "Mad Love" album.

* "Lose Again" (#76 Pop) and the Country singles "Crazy" (#6), "I Never Will Marry" (#8) and "Love Me Tender" (#59) are also missing.

My biggest grievance, though, is with the edits of the songs. Many of the songs cut off 5-10 seconds too soon. As a result, the songs end rather abruptly. I don't know whether Asylum has or will correct this. For now, I suggest tracking down a used vinyl version of this album. The sound may not be as pristine, but the songs will at least be complete.

Rock On, Miss Ronstadt!.......2003-07-26

I remember first hearing Linda Ronstadt's amazing voice come crashing out of the radio sometime in the late sixties as the lead vocalist for the folk-rock group, the Stone Ponies. Her distinctive melodic scream of a vocal style is so distinctive it is hard not to compare with Roy Orbison, whose songs she sometimes recorded, as with "Blue Bayou", which is included here. This collection of her hit songs covers the decade or so before she went for the big band and "lush" sounds of her more recent work. It is hard to not appreciate a voice so singular and versatile, even if it is most usually delivered with a fevered wail. I once saw her in a small venue in Lenox, Massachusetts in a small amphitheater setting, with the audience sprawled over an expansive lawn that gradually rose above the covered stage area. She was so good with just her guitar and small group that it is difficult to describe her in words short of superlatives such as phenomenal.

Much of her seminal work is included here for you casual enjoyment, from "Hurt So Bad" to "Back In The USA", from "Poor. Poor Pitiful Me" to "It's So Easy", and all the others, including "Just One Look", "Tumbling Dice", "Oh, Baby, Baby", "Someone To lay Down beside Me", and several others. This album give us many of Linda's formidable hits, with a definitive play list that anyone would want to have to ensure an accurate representation of her volumes of work, from dozens of hit albums recorded and released over more than a decade of popular work. This is an essential album for your collection, and one I have both in the house and in the car. For easy listening as I zoom down the highway. Other than the Beach Boys, on the one hand, or Jackson Browne on the other, nobody articulates the southern California folk rock style as well or as consistently as Linda Ronstadt, the little woman with the big, big voice. Enjoy!

NICE VALUE, TERRIFIC RONSTADT.......2007-06-19

Both of Linda's massive selling GREATEST HITS Lps have been released on one CD. This nice UK import is also nicely priced and contains some of Ronstadts best known songs. Like Connie Francis before her, Linda delved into reviving oldies and finding a formula that worked for her that would eventually lead her to branching out into other unexplored musical areas that make her a premier vocalist of her era and all time. Some of the more interesting cuts are the lesser known ones LOVE HAS NO PRIDE has the angst without resorting to cliche or soap opera. Her version of DESPERADO far exceeds the Eagles original cover. Then there are the great hits, YOU'RE NO GOOD, BLUE BAYOU and so many others.

A great 2 for 1 by the only female rocker of her era to "hold it together" as none equalled or surpassed her in her heyday.

Great nostalgia and a nice primer to search for her more adventurous works that she dabbled with on her Lps that listeners will be enticed to explore.

Terrific!

Linda Ronstadt's appeal crossed so many genre lines it's impossible to categorize her as anything other than a gifted vocalist. She enjoyed success on country and rock charts alike with a voice that capably handled the requirements of both styles. There was a commanding roughness to her you-did-me-wrong classic, "You're No Good," that mixed both soul and R&B stylings into her vocals. In a similar vein, she handled the Motown standard, "Heat Wave," like a pro, this time giving it the slightest hint of a country twang. She even rose to the occasion of covering Buddy Holly's "That'll Be the Day." Rondstadt had some of her best moments with material that had a more emotional element, regardless of genre. "Love Is a Rose" and "Tracks of My Tears" are good examples of the disparate styles she could navigate with equal aplomb. Greatest Hits doesn't chronicle Rondstadt's hits past the mid-1970s, but is still worth owning, not only for the songs themselves, but as a point of reference in her career. --Steve Gdula

And her albums were full of excellent tracks, so just why the suits at the record company (or companies) felt that every single needed to be a remake of a golden oldie was unclear to me.

Songs like "Deperado" and "Love Is Rose" by (then) contemporary composers proved that Linda could do more than just remake the hits of the previous two decades. Her albums offered even more testimony to her versatility, of course. And for more serious fans or even the curious, those might be preferable to any "greatest hits" collection. So why am I the original completist recommending this.

It's this simple. When the CD revolution came about, I was one of those holdouts who refused to give up my vinyl. When I finally did accept the inevitability of CDs, I resolved not to play into the industry's hands by replacing every single vinyl album with its CD equivalent. Linda Ronstadt ranks pretty darn high in my pantheon, but I still chose to go with the "best of" collection rather than replace six or seven entire albums. I still have a turntable and will drag out the vinyl versions from time to time. But this is a good enough package to meet my present needs. If you're like me, this or any of the other available "best of's" may suffice. If you are either an old diehard fan or a brand new convert, you may want to consider the complete works, however. I doubt you'll feel cheated.

Woefully Incomplete.......2004-11-20

Linda Ronstadt is one of those singers who can manage to put a country flavor to just about anything she sings. However, she has sung songs in a wide variety of styles, so it is difficult to rate her as a singer of a particular type of music. Her ability to put a country twang into a song does make me wonder how she would handle a song like Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven."

Linda has a great talent and has had hits well beyond those on this collection. While this collection was fine in the days of vinyl, with the advent of CDs there is little need for this CD. There are bigger and better collections of music. The music included here is good, but the CD should be re-titled "Early Greatest Hits" or "Here's Our Way of Milking Fans for More Money Because You Still Need a More Comprehensive Collection."

Moving past my gripes about the CD, there is some really fun music on this CD. "Silver Threads" was a minor hit for the Springfields in the early 60s, after being sung by Wanda Jackson in the 50s. Linda's version is more rockabilly than the Springfield's version; a good cover of this song. "Desperado" is a cover of the Eagles song. Her clear voice brings a stronger country flavor to this song, but I prefer the Eagles version, which I believe has stronger feeling and power. Linda shows her flexibility in "You're No Good" as she manages a bit of soul.

Linda Ronstadt manages to sound as though she came right out of the hills on "Love Is a Rose." This heavily bluegrass flavored song still retains a rock influence, particularly with the percussion and a bass guitar. In the following song, "That'll Be the Day" she again manages yet another country-flavored song with a rock beat. Her voice is well matched to the requirements of this song and is an indication of how well she could have been a country music star had she remained in one genre.

"Long, Long Time" is one of those incredible songs that any singer with a good voice should have in their repertoire. Linda has both the range and ability to sing this song with the kind of emotion required to pull a listener into the words and music. This sumptuous ballad is one of the few songs on this CD that require substantial vocal talent to execute and Linda does it very well indeed.

"Different Drum" is yet another musical style, this time 60s pop. While the song has a standard pop beat and catchy lyrics, Linda's voice managed to flavor the song with a character that changes this song into a classic. One anachronistic touch is the use of a harpsichord. Many 60s songs used a variety of unusual instruments to achieve a different sound. This song was penned by Michael Nesmith of The Monkees. I like this song, but the fade at the end and my recollection makes me think that the end of the song may have been clipped. If the song was not clipped the fade was handled poorly.

Switching back to a country flavor is "When Will I Be Loved," a short, AM-friendly song. While the song is relatively simple Linda Ronstadt manages to take charge of the song with outstanding vocals. Another country styled song, "Love Has No Pride." While the style is familiar, the clear, powerful vocal is the focus of this soulful ballad. With the exception of the song discussed just below, the last two songs are also country style songs, a genre that Linda Ronstadt seems to favor.

This collection changes pace as she belts out a rocking versus of "Heat Wave." No fuzz on this song, this song is solid pop-rock.

To be a fan of Linda Ronstadt is to be a fan of power vocals. Her style is eclectic; her skill sublime.

This collection has some good music. However, as noted at the start of this review, this collection is woefully inadequate. Linda's career has spanned Spanish language recordings, numerous later hits including the phenomenal "Somewhere Out There" with James Ingram, and albums of classic standards with Nelson Riddle. Against the breadth of her ability is this relatively paltry album. If you are looking for just her earliest hits, you may stop here. But if you are out to appreciate Linda Ronstadt's career, pass this one by in favor of the bigger collection, or a future box set with much more scope.

The latter part of the '70s found Ronstadt roughing up her image a bit, covering songs by the Rolling Stones and Warren Zevon and eventually taking inspiration from the burgeoning punk and new-wave scenes. All of this was a long way away from the laid-back country-rock sound that established her as one of the top female artists of the day. On the material collected here, Ronstadt remains as strong a singles artist as ever. Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 contains winners such as "It's So Easy," "Blue Bayou," and the Chuck Berry romp "Living in the U.S.A.," as well as edgier material such as the Stones' "Tumbling Dice" and Zevon's "Poor Poor Pitiful Me." --Daniel Durchholz

Greatest songs of all time #2.......2006-09-09

Everything I said in my review about her Greatest Hits, Volume #1 goes double for this one. Nuff said. Thank you linda.

Linda at her peak.......2005-01-08

the first Greatest Hits (1976) for Linda Ronstadt caught her as she was still a rising star in the California sound. Greatest Hits Vol. 2 (1980) is the culmination of the peak years of Linda's popularity, 1977-1980.

When "Greatest Hits" was released, Linda was still pushing Hasten Down The Wind (also 1976). In early 1977, she had a surprise hit single with "Someone To Lay Down Beside Me", which is included here. The song was not one of Linda's biggest, but it's a powerful, memorable track.

In the fall of 1977, Linda released her biggest album ever, "Simple Dreams". The album contained no less than four major hit singles, two of which ("It's So Easy" and "Blue Bayou") were on Billboard's top 5 at the same time in late 1977. "Blue Bayou" showcases Linda at her best Patsy Cline vocal moment, "It's So Easy" is a classic country-rocker, "Poor Poor Pitiful Me" was a great and sarcastic Warren Zevon number, and her version of The Stone's "Tumbling Dice" shows just what a great female rocker Linda is.

The next year, Linda topped the charts again with "Living In The U.S.A.", in which three hits are culled. "Back In The U.S.A." is sadly one of the weakest hits of her catalog. The Chuck Berry version is classic, but Linda's version is rather aimless. However, all is made up by Linda's smash top 10 jazzy version of "Ooh Baby Baby". Another classic Ronstadt-style track is "Just One Look".

Even though "Living In The U.S.A." was another #1 platinum smash for Linda, it became obvious her formula was getting stale. So Linda decided to shake things up and returned in early 1980 with "Mad Love". Guarenteed to show the Benatar's and Harry's that she is still a force to be reckoned with, "Mad Love" became another huge hit, even if it missed #1. The hard-rocking "How Do I Make You" was the first single and it quickly went top 10, then Linda released a breathtaking remake of "Hurt So Bad" that became an even bigger hit. The third single culled from the album, "I Can't Let Go" harkens back to her Stone Poneys days, but updated to sound 80's.

"Greatest Hits Vol. 2" was released in late 1980 and was the culmination of this stellar hitmaking period in Ronstadt's career. One more rock album (1982's Get Closer) after this and then Linda settled into the world of standards, Adult Contemporary and Spanish music, all genres she has done well at too.

Chopped off ..........2004-09-16

This compilation covers Ronstadt's biggest hits from the late '70's/early '80's. Some lesser singles were excluded:

* "Rambler Gambler" (#42 Country) was the B-side of "How Do I Make You," but did not appear on the "Mad Love" album.

* "Lose Again" (#76 Pop) and the Country singles "Crazy" (#6), "I Never Will Marry" (#8) and "Love Me Tender" (#59) are also missing.

My biggest grievance, though, is with the edits of the songs. Many of the songs cut off 5-10 seconds too soon. As a result, the songs end rather abruptly. I don't know whether Asylum has or will correct this. For now, I suggest tracking down a used vinyl version of this album. The sound may not be as pristine, but the songs will at least be complete.

Rock On, Miss Ronstadt!.......2003-07-26

I remember first hearing Linda Ronstadt's amazing voice come crashing out of the radio sometime in the late sixties as the lead vocalist for the folk-rock group, the Stone Ponies. Her distinctive melodic scream of a vocal style is so distinctive it is hard not to compare with Roy Orbison, whose songs she sometimes recorded, as with "Blue Bayou", which is included here. This collection of her hit songs covers the decade or so before she went for the big band and "lush" sounds of her more recent work. It is hard to not appreciate a voice so singular and versatile, even if it is most usually delivered with a fevered wail. I once saw her in a small venue in Lenox, Massachusetts in a small amphitheater setting, with the audience sprawled over an expansive lawn that gradually rose above the covered stage area. She was so good with just her guitar and small group that it is difficult to describe her in words short of superlatives such as phenomenal.

Much of her seminal work is included here for you casual enjoyment, from "Hurt So Bad" to "Back In The USA", from "Poor. Poor Pitiful Me" to "It's So Easy", and all the others, including "Just One Look", "Tumbling Dice", "Oh, Baby, Baby", "Someone To lay Down beside Me", and several others. This album give us many of Linda's formidable hits, with a definitive play list that anyone would want to have to ensure an accurate representation of her volumes of work, from dozens of hit albums recorded and released over more than a decade of popular work. This is an essential album for your collection, and one I have both in the house and in the car. For easy listening as I zoom down the highway. Other than the Beach Boys, on the one hand, or Jackson Browne on the other, nobody articulates the southern California folk rock style as well or as consistently as Linda Ronstadt, the little woman with the big, big voice. Enjoy!
