I've grown to love Dolly Parton. I think she has a beautiful voice and is such a remarkable songwriter. Her songbook is amazing--"Jolene", "Coat Of Many Colors", "I Will Always Love You" and "Dagger Through The Heart". The fact that Porter Wagoner gave Dolly her first big break doesn't hurt either! And, with the Broadway debut of her play, "Nine To Five", she's demonstrated she remains RELEVANT more than 40 years after her debut on the Porter Wagoner TV Show. Thus far, Dolly is the only artist to earn the Porter Tubb "True Poet" (see March 18 blog entry) and "True Artist" designations. Here's Miss Dolly Parton.
