Linda Ronstadt - Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 & Vol. 2

Linda Ronstadt - Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 & Vol. 2 This is not the 2007 UK compilation... this is actually two seperate CD rips -------------------- amazon.com/images/G/01/ciu/93/27/e4cf9833e7a0e2647b262110.L.jpg Title: Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 Artist: Linda Ronstadt Audio CD (October 25, 1990) Original Release Date: 1976 Number of Discs: 1 Genre: Pop Format: flac Track Listing: 01. You're No Good 02. Silver Threads and Golden Needles 03. Desperado 04. Love Is a Rose 05. That'll Be the Day 06. Long, Long Time 07. Different Drum 08. When Will I Be Loved? 09. Love Has No Pride 10. (Love Is Like a) Heat Wave 11. It Doesn't Matter Anymore 12. Tracks of My Tears Amazon Review: 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. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/ciu/4f/27/fa42c060ada00652d564a110.L.jpg Title: Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 Artist: Linda Ronstadt Original Release Date: 1980 Release Date: December 19, 2006 Genre: Pop Format: flac Track Listing: 01. It's So Easy 02. I Can't Let Go 03. Hurt So Bad 04. Blue Bayou 05. How Do I Make You 06. Back in the U.S.A. 07. Ooh Baby Baby 08. Poor, Poor Pitiful Me 09. Tumbling Dice 10. Just One Look 11. Someone To Lay Down Beside Me Amazon Review: 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."
