LINDA RONSTADT : GREATEST HITS I & II |
|
Label : Rhino Time : 74:31 Release Year : 2007 Review (AllMusic) : Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 is a good 12-track collection of Linda Ronstadt's biggest hits from the early '70s, beginning with the Stone Poneys' "Different Drum" and running through "Tracks of My Tears," from 1975's Prisoner in Disguise. In between, all of her best-known songs - "You're No Good," "When Will I Be Loved," "Heat Wave" - are included, plus selected minor hits, making it an excellent overview of her peak years. Picking up where the first volume left off, Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 contains Linda Ronstadt's biggest hits from the late '70s, including such songs as "It's So Easy," "Hurt So Bad," "Blue Bayou," "Back in the U.S.A.," "Poor Poor Pitiful Me," "Ooh Baby Baby," "How Do I Make You," and "Tumbling Dice." Since Ronstadt's late-'70s albums tended to be a little spotty, this is a very useful summation of their highlights. |
