Dolly Parton will release Dolly, a four-CD box set on October 27. Dolly is comprised of 99 songs and is the first multi-CD, multi-label deluxe box set compilation ever to represent her life’s work and will be released through RCA Nashville/Legacy, a division of Sony Music Entertainment.
Dolly Parton has charted at least one Top 5 country hit in each decade since the ’60s. She has also charted at least one #1 country hit (if not a dozen) in each decade from the ’70s to the 2000’s including, “Joshua,” “Jolene,” and “I Will Always Love You.”
The four-CD box set contains a full-color 60-page booklet with never-before-seen photographs and rare memorabilia and an extensive 5,000-word biographical essay written by ASCAP-Deems Taylor Award-winning writer-editor-producer-lecturer Holly George-Warren.
Dolly continues to explore the broad range and depth of her recording career – from the rarely-heard sides cut at age 11 for the Louisiana-based Goldband indie label, and at age 16 for Mercury in Nashville, through her whirlwind two years (and first chart records) with Monument (1965-67), her record-setting near two-decade stay with RCA Records (1967-85, underpinning her long hitmaking association with Porter Wagoner), and another near-decade at Columbia into the ’90s. In addition, seven previously unreleased tracks make their historic debuts on this box set, as well as 11 of Porter and Dolly’s hit duets.
