Recorded on April 24, 1980, at Television Center Studios in Hollywood, Live in Hollywood captures Ronstadt at the pinnacle of her career as America's most popular female rock singer. She was joined by a remarkable band that included guitarists Kenny Edwards and Danny Kortchmar, drummer Russ Kunkel, bassist Bob Glaub, keyboardist Billy Payne, pedal steel guitarist Dan Dugmore, and backing vocalist Wendy Waldman. Rounding out the band was Peter Asher, Ronstadt's producer and the concert's executive producer, who played percussion and provided background vocals.

On stage, Ronstadt captivated the packed audience with stunning versions of her biggest hits like "Blue Bayou," "Poor Poor Pitiful Me," and "It's So Easy." The album also features a rousing six-minute jam of her No. 1 smash, "You're No Good"; showcases a trio of Top Ten hits from her current-at-the-time album, Mad Love (her seventh consecutive platinum-selling album): "I Can't Let Go," "How Do I Make You," and "Hurt So Bad"; as well as covers of songs by artists such as Elvis Costello, Neil Young, Roy Orbison, and Eagles.
