About this album
Greatest Hits distils Linda Ronstadt’s late-70s breakthrough into one of country-rock’s most approachable crossover sets. Issued in 1976, it gathers the songs that turned her from a respected singer into a major mainstream star, including signature versions of You’re No Good, When Will I Be Loved, Different Drum and Desperado. Ronstadt’s supple, forceful voice ties together pop, country and folk material with uncommon authority, while the choices reflect her gift for reinterpreting songs rather than simply collecting hits. The compilation became a key entry point to her work and a landmark in the era’s radio-friendly rock and adult contemporary crossover.
