Linda Ronstadt – 1976 Rolling Stone Cover Story

I’m really excited about today’s new Journalism addition. A 1976 Rolling Stone cover story that Cameron did on Linda Ronstadt. At the time, there was no bigger name on the planet. She had three consecutive platinum albums and a greatest hits album looming (which has gone on to sell nearly 20 million copies). Cameron visits her home and takes a peek behind the curtain as Linda deals with fortune and fame. I think Linda is vastly underrated and is one of the best vocalists on the planet. Her run of albums with Prisoner in Disguise, Hasten Down the Wind and Simple Dreams are still three of my favorite records from that period. Check it out!
