Question
Can you please tell me if the following are available in CD or cassette tape by Linda Rondstat?:
 Simple Dreams
 Hasten Down the Wind
 Back in the USA

Answer
Dear Marcia,

I'm afraid they are now rare if we talk about its availability  here in the Philippines except maybe on some sites where you can buy them at a higher than regular prices. I don't know outside here if it's still available. As far as Manila is concerned, not even a compilation of LINDA RONSTADT is available.

Just for the record, the albums were HASTEN DOWN THE WIND (1976) which includes the hit THAT'LL BE THE DAY, SIMPLE DREAMS (1977) which spawned the hits BLUE BAYOU and IT'S SO EASY, and LIVING IN THE U.S.A. (1978) with the SMOKEY ROBINSON duet OOH BABY BABY as its biggest hit.

Maraming salamat po!!
