As a measure of her impact on popular culture in this time period, the front cover photograph of a roller skating Linda in a satin exercise outfit was noted to increase the popularity of skating in the United States at the time. The album's first single release was a revved up remake of Chuck Berry's Back in the USA which peaked at No. 16 on the Billboard Hot 100. The album's biggest hit was Ronstadt's version of Smokey Robinson's Ooh Baby Baby (No. 7 Pop and No. 2 Easy Listening). Just One Look and Alison later became hit singles as well, while All That You Dream and the late Warren Zevon's Mohammad's Radio were popular tracks on AOR (Album-Oriented Radio) stations.
