ABOUT THE RECORD
What's New, consisting of nine Jazz songs, was released in 1983 and spent 81 weeks on the main Billboard album chart. It held the No. 3 position for five consecutive weeks while Michael Jackson's Thriller and Lionel Richie's Can't Slow Down locked in the No. 1 and No. 2 album positions. The album was RIAA certified Triple Platinum for sales of over 3 million copies in the United States alone. The album also earned Linda yet another Grammy Award nomination for Best Pop Vocal Performance, Female. This was the first in a trilogy of 1980s albums recorded with the late bandleader/arranger Nelson Riddle. The album spawned a major change in popular culture because Ronstadt was then considered the leading female vocalist of the 'Rock' era. Both her record company and manager, Peter Asher, were very reluctant to produce this album with Ronstadt, but eventually her determination won them over and the albums exposed a whole new generation to the sounds of the pre-swing and swing eras.
