Рет қаралды 264,025
13 жыл бұрынWhat's New is a 1983 jazz album by American singer/songwriter/ producer Linda Ronstadt. It represents the first in a trilogy of 1980s albums Ronstadt recorded with bandleader/arranger Nelson Riddle. John Kosh designed the album covers for all 3 albums.
What's New was released in September 1983 and spent 81 weeks on the main Billboard album chart. It held the position for five consecutive weeks while Michael Jackson's Thriller and Lionel Richie's Can't Slow Down locked in the 1 and 2 album positions. The album also reached 2 on the Jazz albums chart. It was RIAA certified Triple Platinum for sales of over 3 million copies in the United States alone. The album also earned Linda another Grammy Award nomination for Best Pop Vocal Performance, Female alongside Donna Summer, Bonnie Tyler, Irene Cara and Sheena Easton, all of whom performed live on the 1984 Grammy telecast.
All tracks also included in the compilation "'Round Midnight", released on Asylum Records in 1986.

Beautiful Linda, she makes other singers look like novices. Clear, melodious, effortless. Thank you for everything you've given us, Miss LInda!

1983 music video: no dances, no nudity, no sexual undertones. Just some simple flashback movie scenes, a powerful ballad and the breathtaking voice of Ms. Linda Ronstadt. End result: A magical performance that is still a joy to watch 40 years after it was first made.

Folks----------Mr Sinatra said it : " You can wait around & hope, but you'll not hear the likes of this, again. " ------------THIS is the lost art known as a pure voice------nothing fake------nothing affected-----simply doing what she did without peer. ------------The Best. --------------------------WolfSky9, 73 y/o9

if anybody else ever decides to do a "Standards" album or 4 like Linda Ronstadt did...they are gonna have a tough time doing it better than she did or even getting close to her...she has done numerous interviews about recording the "Standards" with Nelson Riddle and that she had a deep passion to do them...and that's the difference her "Passion" for the music...she didn't do them for fame or fortune her record company and her producer Peter Asher did not want her to do them she did them because she thought this "Great" music was going to be lost to time and wanted do her part to try and save it...its a crime that this dreadful disease took her AWESOME voice away...prayers for Linda...amen

It was soooo daring, yet brilliant that she did this (these) album with Nelson Riddle! At her peak, she switched gears. I was all of 21, enlisted in the Air Force up in Fairbanks, AK, when this came out. I got the side eye from most of my Air Force friends when I showed them this album. But I freaking love it! i remember reading an interview with Nelson who said the only problem with Linda was getting her to SLOW DOWN for the slower tempos of these songs... Wow! A great voice to great classics that I had never heard before.... Thanks Linda!!

What makes this great song so wonderful is Linda's deep feeling for the words of this creation. How many thousands of us are touched by the love that somehow slipped away, so swiftly and sadly. Even worse is the harshness of Parkinson's that hit this beautiful, beautiful, lovely woman, causing her to stop singing. Tragic; life is so treacherous at times. Frank Sinatra is my top version of this song with Linda a very close next best.

Phil, This is one of my favorite recordings and a day wouldn't be a day to me if I didn't include the big band sound in it. Bob Crosby (Bing's brother) did maybe the first recording of this in the '30's...An ultra beautiful version. Still Linda's is my favorite.

In 1982, I'd met a man who'd hired me for some work in NYC, and he told me to keep an eye out for a resurgence of music from the 40s to be hitting the airways in the next year. I had a feeling he was a "Big Wig" in the biz since I'd shared with him some of my own experiences regarding Robert Stigwood, Alan Carr, etc., and he was veritably finishing my sentences! Lo-and-behold, a year later, Linda came out with "What's New?", so it was pretty incredible. Next thing you know, nearly everyone; Barry Manilow, Barbra Streisand, Toni Tennille, etc., were putting their incomparable stamps on many classic songs. It makes sense, since no matter how old they are, a great song is forever! Linda was the leader in this resurgence, though, and wow, this album simply shines!

What,s New was written in 1938 by Bob Haggart, then a member of the Bob Haggart as an instrumental number. In 1939 the publishers commissioned Johnny Burke to write lyrics, and the title change to What,s New, the first line . The first recording with the. New title was in 1939 by Bob Crosby and his Orchestra, with vocalist Teddy Grace. The record reached a peak chart position of number 10. Bing Crosby recorded the song in June 1939 with John Scott Trotter and his Orchestra, and this was the biggest hit recording of the song, peaking at number 2. . The original lyrics include “ lovely as ever”, but when sung by a woman. These are changed to handsome as ever.
