Linda Ronstadt, Just One Look - Classic Linda Ronstadt (Rhino, 2015) ( Amazon U.S. Just One Look - Classic Linda Ronstadt is due in stores just a couple of weeks from now, on August 21. This new retrospective may serve most to whet the appetite for the upcoming expanded collection of Ronstadt, Dolly Parton and Emmylou Harris' Trio recordings the project was confirmed by the artists to Rolling Stone and Country Music Television earlier this year and is awaiting official announcement from the label. Just One Look includes key hit singles from this period including "You're No Good, "Tracks of My Tears," "Heat Wave," "Blue Bayou," "It's So Easy" and "Just One Look." However, note that the tracklisting lacks major hits and favorites from the Ronstadt catalogue such as "Long, Long Time," "When Will I Be Loved," "That'll Be the Day," "Back in the U.S.A.," "Ooh, Baby, Baby" and the Grammy-winning American Tail duet "Somewhere Out There." No material is included from any of Ronstadt's subsequent recordings. Concentrating on the versatile vocalist's contemporary pop material, no tracks are culled from her Nelson Riddle and Trio collaborations or her Spanish-language albums the collection picks up with 1989's smash Aaron Neville pairing Cry Like a Rainstorm, Howl Like the Wind and concludes with tracks from 1993's Winter Light. From that point on, Just One Look touches on all of Ronstadt's LPs through 1982's Get Closer. The chronologically-assembled collection begins with Michael Nesmith's timeless "Different Drum" as performed by The Stone Poneys featuring Linda, then jumps forward to the 1973 solo album Don't Cry Now, overlooking Ronstadt's three earliest Capitol solo LPs.

Just One Look - Classic Linda Ronstadt is due from the label on August 21, featuring 30 newly-remastered tracks on two CDs. Roughly one year following the release of Starbucks' Opus Collection anthology, Rhino has announced a new compilation celebrating the resplendent voice of Linda Ronstadt.
