Free Music Notes for Living In The USA
Free Music Review: White Rhythm and Blues
Hit: 3 Stars
I bought this album years ago when it first came out because I loved Simple Dreams so much; however, in all honesty, there are only two great songs on it--Ooo Baby, Baby--Ronstadt surpasses the Miracles version, but everyone knows that because everyone's heard it. But the main reason I bought this cd again is the JD Souther ballad "White Rhythm and Blues." It's one of her best songs.Free Music Review: More of 80s Linda
Hit: 3 Stars
Living In The USA is Linda moving into the 80s and she does just fine. There are some great songs on this album and some rock a little more than previous releases.Free Music Review: Great album, poor-sounding transcription
Hit: 5 Stars
I love Ronstadt! What pipes! Great interpretations of great songs.
This album is responsible for seriously launching skating as an outdoor sport - the LA County beach bike path was empty one week, and jammed with skaters a week after this album was released. (Who says Americans aren't sheep?)
One of the poorest CD recordings I've heard. Don't know why.
Free Music Review: An Album Released In 1978 And Still Going Strong!!!
Hit: 5 Stars
This is another excellent album from Ms. Ronstadt which was released in the wild, reckless days of my youth and sounds as fresh today as it did back then. My favourite track on this album would have to be the wistful "Mohammed's Radio and "White Rhythm And Blues "comes in as a close second. Once again guitarist Waddy Wachtel plays on this album and his guitar work is always a delight to hear. For those of you who ae still befuddled by the pronouciation of this guy's surname it is "Wok-Tell" as in the Chinese Kitchen Frypan!!!Free Music Review: Linda Ronstadt's second megahit!
Hit: 4 Stars
HEART LIKE A WHEEL was a #1 smash. HASTEN DOWN THE WIND never made it to the Top 20. This follow-up did,though. Memorable songs include the hits BACK IN THE U.S.A. and covers of The Miracles' OOH BABY BABY and Doris Troy's JUST ONE LOOK. Another memorable song is MOHAMMED'S RADIO,written and originally recorded by the late Warren Zevon,Linda Ronstadt's Asylum Records labelmate. The other songs are good.
