Free Music Notes for The Very Best of Linda Ronstadt
Free Music Review: Great collection!
Hit: 5 Stars
This is one of my favorite CDs. It has a wonderful collection of songs from a great artist. A little light rock and a little easy listening. I was in my 20's in the 1970's, and these songs bring back some terrific memories. Includes liner notes with some history about Linda and several nice pictures from "back in the day."Free Music Review: She Hasn't Worn That Well
Hit: 2 Stars
It's difficult to fault Peter Asher's management of her career, but, with hindsight, he did her no favors as a producer -- at least during her R&B/rock period. When you listen to her back catalog now, the thing you most notice -- as many others have pointed out over the years -- is far too many covers, performed by a voice that is a beautiful instrument but with arrangements and a delivery that are blah in the extreme. At best, they leave you wondering why she and Asher bothered, if they weren't going to do something fresh with the songs; at worst, they leave you yearning for the originals.
Her most realized albums from that period are those that introduced new material and/or reintroduced little-known gems -- "Hasten Down the Wind" and half of "Heart Like a Wheel." "The Very Best of..." only highlights the fact that the very best of Linda Ronstadt is not nearly as good as it should have been.

There's no reason to omit the Top 10 hit "How Do I Make You?" from 1980. It would have easily fit on the disc. As it is, this collection is incomplete.Free Music Review: really is the best of...

You know I fell in love with Linda and her voice, way back in my teens..simetimes she makes you wanna reach out and pull her into your arms when she is singing. She puts so much soul into it. and this is a good compilation..it had all that I wanted
