Simple Dreams is the eighth studio album by the American singer Linda Ronstadt, released in 1977 by Asylum Records.
It includes several of her best-known songs, including her cover of the Rolling Stones song "Tumbling Dice" （featured in the film FM） and her version of the Roy Orbison song "Blue Bayou", which earned her a Grammy nomination for Record of the Year.
The album also contains covers of the Buddy Holly song "It's So Easy!" （a top-5 hit） and the Warren Zevon songs "Poor Poor Pitiful Me" （another top-40 hit） and "Carmelita".
The album was the best-selling studio album of her career, and at the time was the second best-selling album by a female artist （behind only Carole King's Tapestry）.
It was her first album since Don't Cry Now without long-time musical collaborator Andrew Gold, though it features several of the other Laurel Canyon-based session musicians who appeared on her prior albums,
including guitarists Dan Dugmore and Waddy Wachtel, bassist Kenny Edwards, and producer and multi-instrumentalist Peter Asher.
The album was originally released by Asylum in the LP format in September 1977 （catalogue number 104 or 6E-104）.
Later, in 1986, Asylum released the album in the Cassette format （TCS-104） and in the CD format （2-104）.
