Free Music Notes for Heart Like a WheelFree Music Review: An American Treasure (4.5 stars) Hit: 5 StarsThis singer is almost unknown here in Europe and this time it's a real MISS-OUT on something great. The rave reviews do not lie. Linda Ronstadt is here singing beautiful tunes from great songwriters (Paul Anka, Phil Everly, Hank Williams and James Taylor, to name a few) and the country/pop tunes are immensely helped by wonderful arrangements. Just the guitar solo in the middle of "The Dark End Of The Street" is a reason enough to get this album. They say she has never surpassed "Heart Like a Wheel" with any other work. They're probably right. Maybe only Joni Mitchell with "Court and Spark" made something equally great in 1974.
Free Music Review: ONE OF MY FAVORITES Hit: 5 StarsI am especially fond of Linda's earlier works. Heart Like a Wheel contains some great country covers as well as some of the best penned tunes ever. My favorite on the CD is Lowell George's "Willing"
Free Music Review: Heart Like a Wheel Hit: 5 StarsRarely is a recording released that contains 10 potential hits. There is not a bad song on this CD. I remember having the LP back in the 70's when it was released. Linda Ronstadt has one of the most beautiful voices in all of music. This CD has up-tempo songs like "You're No Good" and "When Will I Be Loved" to the country classic "I Can't Help It if I'm Still in Love with You". The title track, "Heart Like a Wheel" is a beautiful ballad in Ronstadt's voice. This CD is certainly a classic for lovers of good music. It is highly recommended!
Free Music Review: Linda Ronstadt's first #1 album Hit: 4 StarsYOU'RE NO GOOD,the #1 smash from this album is probably what made the album a #1 smash. There was only one other Top 20 hit,a cover of the Everly Brothers' WHEN WILL I BE LOVED. YNG came to the attention of Van Halen around 1978 and the band decided to cover the tune. The other songs are good. Linda Ronstadt's Asylum Records labelmate Andrew Gold plays guitar and sings background on YNG.
Free Music Review: Classsic Hit: 5 StarsEven after 30 years, this sounds great. It is a true classic.
Everyone should own it.
