1977 Beautiful Japanese Pressing, Gatefold Jacket With Obi. LP Appears Glossy, Unplayed. "Featuring A Broader Array Of Styles Than Any Previous Linda Ronstadt Record, Simple Dreams Reconfirms Her Substantial Talents As An Interpretive Singer. Ronstadt Sings Dolly Parton ("I Never Will Marry") With The Same Conviction As The Rolling Stones ("Tumbling Dice"), And She Manages To Update Roy Orbison ("Blue Bayou") And Direct Attention To The Caustic, Fledgling Singer/songwriter Warren Zevon ("Poor Poor Pitiful Me" And "Carmelita"). The Consistently Adventurous Material And Ronstadt's Powerful Performance Makes The Record Rival Heart Like A Wheel In Sheer Overall Quality". AMG, Stephen Thomas Erlewine
