Linda Ronstadt

With roots in the Los Angeles country and folk-

rock scenes, Linda Ronstadt became one of the

 most popular interpretive singers of the '70s,

 earning a string of platinum-selling albums and

 Top 40 singles. Throughout the '70s, her laid-

back pop never lost sight of her folky roots, yet

 as she moved into the '80s, she began to

 change her sound with the times, adding new

 wave influences. After a brief flirtation with

 pre-rock pop, Ronstadt settled into a pattern of

 adult contemporary pop and Latin albums,

 sustaining her popularity in both fields.
