Linda Ronstadt - Simple Dreams

About this episode

The episode explores Linda Ronstadt's musical journey and her impact on various genres.

Ike Turner returns for a long-overdue episode on Linda Ronstadt. While she was a titan of the 1970s, her musical journey went well beyond her time at the top of the charts, and much of it has been overlooked. We listen to cuts from her best-selling album while exploring the various genres to which she applied her incredible vocal range. Like what you hear?
