Hand Sown… Home Grown

Linda Ronstadt

A foundational country-rock document. Raw, dusty vocals meeting pedal steel and Dylan covers in a sun-drenched California canyon.

Find on Amazon

The record where Linda Ronstadt invented country-rock before anyone told her she could.

A spirited and slightly raw exploration of independence and heartbreak set against a rural backdrop.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sharp, assertive snap of the rhythm section on 'The Only Mama That’ll Walk the Line' signaling a new vocal authority.
The haunting, reverb-soaked atmosphere of 'The Dolphins' which leans into a psychedelic folk vulnerability.
The high-energy, almost satirical gospel fervor of 'We Need a Whole Lot More of Jesus' clashing against the rock backbeat.
