8. Heatwave
9. Heart Like A Wheel
10. It Doesn't Matter Anymore
11. Hey Good Lookin'
She was incredible.Every cover she did was at least as good as the original if not better. Lots of amazing female vocalists in those days: Linda, Carly Simon, Carole King. None of them needed auto tune.
Linda one the best. When my daughter started singing I dug old tapes of Linda and said learn from her and eagles tapes for harmony and I will stand by that until I die.
My parents had Heart Like a Wheel. I was pretty much into Zeppelin and mainstream classic rock at the time but her voice and arrangements were amazing and really expanded my musical horizons. That album turned me into a fan of so many other artists, JD Souther, Emmylou Harris, the McGarrigles, Lowell George and Little Feat.
