Dolly Parton

Dolly Parton is working on her 50th album.  This one will feature more than 20 members of her family.  Her niece, Jada Star, just spilled the beans.  She said, “It is an album that documents [Dolly’s] whole life.  It has been a huge undertaking which involves the whole family.”

Dolly Parton’s first album, “Hello, I’m Dolly”, came out in 1967.  Fast forward 57 years . . . and now she’s working on her 50th album.  This one is rumored to be called, “Dolly Parton: Smokey Mountain DNA”.  50 albums, over 57 years, is truly impressive.

 

There are no details on a release date for the new album, but it sure can’t come soon enough.
