About a week ago, I purchased the CD set combining Linda's first three solo albums. It was released in 2014 but somehow escaped my attention-- I figured it was just another cheap combo set. But I was wrong. If you don't have these early Linda Ronstadt albums:
Hand Sown... Home Grown
Silk Purse
Linda Ronstadt
: then this is a set I would definitely recommend. The music has been remastered, and although I have only listened to this set in the car, it sounds great to my ears.
What made me purchase was a review I read that commented on the CD booklet. It contained what was described as the original liner notes for Hand Sown Home Grown. Well, I had that album in 1969 and I have never seen any liner notes in any version before. It has some information from the original producer of the album, musician credits, etc.- a lot more research and info than we got on the recent reissue of Simple Dreams.
Here is a link:
Hand Sown... Home Grown + Silk Purse + Linda Ronstadt
It may be available at lower cost elsewhere-- I have not looked into that.
