Linda Ronstadt's Covered By Ronstadt album is a stunning tribute to some of the greatest songwriters of all time. Ronstadt's unique voice and style are showcased perfectly in this collection of covers, which includes songs by Bob Dylan, Elvis Costello, and Warren Zevon, among others.
The album opens with a powerful rendition of Dylan's "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue," which sets the tone for the rest of the record. Ronstadt's voice is strong and emotive, and she brings a new depth to these classic songs.
One of the standout tracks is Ronstadt's cover of "Alison" by Elvis Costello. Her version is haunting and beautiful, and she brings a vulnerability to the lyrics that is truly moving. Another highlight is her take on "Love Has No Pride" by Eric Kaz and Libby Titus, which is a masterclass in understated emotion.
