Review by Ingo Barwig

Album Review: "All My Life Shattered" by Linda Ronstadt Alright, let’s talk about Linda Ronstadt’s All My Life Shattered. Released back in 1990 on Elektra Records, this pop gem didn’t exactly explode onto the scene, but it’s got some real heart—and a couple of tracks that just stick with you. Produced by Peter Asher (you know, the guy who always seems to nail it) and recorded/mixed by George Massenburg, this album feels polished yet intimate. Like, you can tell they cared while making it. Now, I’ve gotta say—the title track “All My Life” is one of those songs that sneaks up on you. At first listen, it’s classic Ronstadt: soulful vocals, smooth production, and lyrics dripping with emotion. But after a few spins, it hits different. There’s something raw about how she sings, like she’s pouring out her whole life story into your ears. The melody sticks around long after the song ends, too—catchy without being annoying, which is a win in my book. Then there’s “Shattered.” This one’s darker, moodier, and honestly kinda haunting. It’s not what you’d expect from a pop record in the '90s, but that’s why it stands out. The way the instrumentation builds as her voice soars gives me chills every time. It’s like listening to someone unravel their deepest fears right in front of you. You don’t hear stuff like that much anymore, y’know? The album came out during a weird time for music—grunge was bubbling under the surface, and pop was trying to figure itself out. So yeah, maybe All My Life Shattered got overshadowed by bigger names or louder trends. But if you’re into albums that feel personal and crafted with care, this one deserves another look. Here’s the thing though—listening to this now makes me wonder where all these emotional, storytelling-driven pop albums went. Like, we could use more of this vibe today instead of whatever auto-tuned chaos dominates the charts. Anyway, give it a shot. Who knows? Maybe “All My Life” will get stuck in your head for days… in a good way! (Oh, and shoutout to Canada and the US for getting this release—it’s wild thinking about how music used to be so region-specific back then.)
