Linda Ronstadt/Nelson Riddle

Just picked up a 3 record box set of Linda Ronstadt singing old standards with the Nelson Riddle Orchestra. I think the records may be original Asylum/Electra pressings made in the early/mid 80s.

Folks, Linda Ronstadt and Nelson Riddle were very special artists. I suggest that if you can source these classics on vinyl or CD that you treat yourself to real music.

@Oregonpapa ... I think the Linda/Nelson experience is being helped along by my ARC Ref 150 SE amp which just came back from the factory. Out if the box, it's very magical.

I have had "What's New?" for ages and just got "Sentimental Reasons." The last, I think is Lush Life. "What's New"
is the better of the two. Have to wait and see about "Lush Life."

Dear Lew: I'm referring to the album titles for the Ronstadt /Riddle collaborations. I never suggested that Sinatra sang a song called "Lush Life" (Ronstadt/Riddle.) It is an album title however (Ronstadt/Riddle.) And I did shorten the album title "For Sentimental Reasons" (Ronstadt/Riddle.)

As it is, the song is actually called: "I Love You For Sentimental Reasons" on the "For Sentimental Reasons" (Ronstadt/Riddle)album. If there is any confusion between that and any Sinatra recording, I'm not aware of it. I don't have much in Sinatra's repertoire.

Lew: No offence taken as I'm sure none intended.
