Title: Oops, I was wrong!
Product review: When I first bought this album, I listened to it a couple of times and put it aside, disappointed. It just didn't leave a big impression on me. It took me a couple of years to give it another listen, and lo and behold, I've fallen in love with it. There are a couple of missteps to be sure, but there also is some of Linda Ronstadt's very strongest work. I've especially become enamored of her version of Jimmy Webb's "Do What You Gotta Do" - a very wise love song with a gorgeous vocal. The centerpieces of the album are 3 great pop songs from the 60's made famous by Dionne Warwick and Dusty Springfield: "Anyone Who Had A Heart", "Oh No, Not My Baby" and "I Don't Know What to Do With Myself". I won't say Ronstadt transcends their performances, but her renditions can stand right alongside of them, and that's saying a lot. All in all, a criminally underrated album, by myself as well as others!
