1976 Grammy Award Winner: Named Best Female Pop Vocal Performance

Part of her impeccable string of mid-1970s albums that defined California's soft-rock scene, Linda Ronstadt's Grammy-winning Hasten Down the Wind is the vocalist at her best – and that's saying something. Just consider the watertight repertoire: The Warren Zevon title track. Patsy Cline's (by way of Willie Nelson) "Crazy." Buddy Holly's "That'll Be the Day." Nelson's "Down So Low." This is a can't-miss affair.

  1. Lose Again
  2. The Tattler
  3. If He's Ever Near
  4. That'll Be the Day
  5. Lo Siento Mi Vida
  6. Hasten Down the Wind
  7. Rivers of Babylon
  8. Give One Heart
  9. Try Me Again
  10. Crazy
  11. Down So Low
  12. Someone to Lay Down Beside Me

Now the album finally has the exquisite sound it has always deserved. Listeners can now literally feel Ronstadt's deep-seated emotions. Even better, her covers of affecting ballads intentionally revolve around vocal-heavy arrangements. It's no wonder that the album, which topped the country charts, also yielded two Top 20 hits and resulted in the artist's first platinum-record award.
