Best  LR album is the one where she is wearing the light flimsy top...  I was a teen when that album came out and needless to say my friends and I likeyddd.. Best part of the album.....   :)

Notice that he can't come up with the name.  Hmmm, I wonder why?

I think he means Hasten Down The Wind.  There are a few of her albums with her wearing flimsy tops.

I find it odd that the usual retailers, Acoustic Sounds, Elusive Disk & Music Direct, don't have a pre-order of Just One Look.

I have, I think, all of her albums up through the early Eighties. One of the great voices of any age, any genre. Canciones de Mis Padres is especially good and led me to find her work in Mexican TV specials available on You Tube. The sound is poor on this one, some are better but the joy of making music really comes through.

I don't think I appreciated her looks enough as a young woman.  She was just a natural beauty.  And a great voice. 

The last time I had a temp job I bought every album she has made.

Yes, I agree, her album covers do a great job in highlighting her natural beauty. Have to think it helped her sales.. I am not sure why, dont hate anything else about mexico proper, but I just seem to have absolutely no time for their traditional music.. haha  Amazing how certain sound styles just dont resonate within one's soul, yet can for many others.. Love it that way....

I have most of Linda Ronstadt's album with the exception of Heart Like a Wheel.  So, I went on Ebay just to look and found someone selling this album for $0.99.  The seller listed it as NM and it was an original from 1972 approximately.  So I said what the heck and put in a max bid of $5.00.  I won the bid and with shipping got the album for 5.39. 

I received it a couple of days ago.  I is in fact NM condition both LP and Cover.  The music and recording quality was really good.  I will put it up there with one of my favorite Linda Ronstadt albums.  Thanks for the recommendation on this album. 

Regards

Richard

Hi Richard,

If you don't have it yet, I would recommend her Christmas album too.  Its hauntingly beautiful at times.  Enjoy!
