Heart Like a Wheel is the fifth solo studio album by Linda Ronstadt, released in November 1974. It was Ronstadt's last album to be released by Capitol Records. At the time of its recording, Ronstadt had already moved to Asylum Records and released her first album there; due to contractual obligations, though, Heart Like a Wheel was released by Capitol.[4]
Heart Like a Wheel reached the top of the Billboard 200, becoming her first number one album in the United States. The lead single a cover of Dee Dee Warwick's "You're No Good" peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. At the 18th Annual Grammy Awards, the album was nominated for Album Of The Year, while her version of "I Can't Help It If I'm Still In Love with You" won the award for Best Country Vocal Performance, Female.
Widely considered Ronstadt's breakthrough album, it was selected by the Library of Congress to be inducted into the National Recording Registry in 2013. In 2020, it was ranked number 490 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
