The start of a new decade and a new direction for Grammy winning superstar Linda Ronstadt. New wave rock - her 1980 LP 'Mad Love' was further proof positive that this lady could sing anything, and do it in exemplary fashion. Although not her biggest seller, it was to be her 7th million selling album; no mean feat! 'How do I make you' was the first single lifted from it in January of 1980. A Top 10 at home, the song was a sizeable hit in Australia (#19) but would be the only chart entry that year for her; unlike America that followed this track with 'Hurt so bad' and 'I can't let go' into the charts resulting in a Grammy nod for Best Rock Performance. 'How do i make you' at under two and a half minutes still packs a punch and shows Linda's willingness to change things up and feel the pulse of the culture of the time.
