Description
If there was any doubt whether Linda Ronstadt would emerge as the premier female vocalist of the 1970s, the question became moot when she dropped Prisoner in Disguise in 1975. Picking up exactly where she left off on Heart Like a Wheel, the singer pairs with the same perfectionist-oriented producer and many of the same session pros on a follow-up in every way the equal of her 1974 breakthrough. The platinum-certified set not only established Ronstadt as an all-time great. It confirmed her as the voice of the decade, a performer the press soon deemed "The First Lady of Rock."
Sourced from the original analog master tapes, pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing in California, housed in a Stoughton Printing gatefold jacket, and reissued to celebrate Elektra Records' 75th anniversary, Mobile Fidelity's numbered-edition 180-gram 45 RPM 2LP set presents the Top 5 album with extra groove space via 45 RPM speed for the first time. This special 50th anniversary version plays with reference-caliber definition, depth, and dimensionality. The definitive vinyl edition of Prisoner in Disguise, it lifts prior veils that impeded the gorgeous singing and spectacular craftsmanship gracing the 11 songs.
