I was very proud to have worked on all three("What's New","Lush Life",and"For Sentimental Reason's"with my late father.The last album"For Sentimental Reasons"wasn't released until the year following his death(1986).My Father and Linda were very fond of each other.My father would say that she(Linda)has a wonderful instrument.He helped her to get the most out of her"Wonderful Instrument"!C.R.Riddle


5 out of 5 stars the REAL gem here.....   March 29, 2008
....is not just a wonderful handful of old standards by a vocalist of moderate capacity....the REAL treat is the musical arrangements and orchestral performance of Nelson Riddle....and how Linda blends her style with an outstanding ensemble performance which produces a superb example of the kind of musical skills thought to be extinct.




5 out of 5 stars What's new   March 21, 2008
As in the Albums "Lush Life" and for "Sentimantal Reasons" another stunning collaboration between Linda Ronstadt and Nelson Riddle of songs plucked form the American Songbook. Excellent interpretations - "I guess I'll hang my tears out to dry" will probably have you in tears.


5 out of 5 stars Easy Listening   January 18, 2008
Linda Ronstadt and the Nelson Riddle Ochestra CD is just the right mix of hum-along easy listening music. Just right for anyone!


5 out of 5 stars Linda at her best   September 26, 2007

Of all her collaborations with Nelson Riddle, this CD is the best...hands down. This CD sounds better to me today than it did in 1984 when I bought the original LP. Linda's voice was at her strongest and finest and it shows in her control and and precision. She waltzes beautifully through these classics and Nelson Riddle's arrangements are much more conducive to her style than David Campbell's arrangements of the Skywalker Symphony on "Cry Like a rainstorm, Howl like the wind." Overall, with only nine songs, "What's New" is a powerfull ride that is over too soon.
