2009, Legacy
The first-ever, multi-label, career-spanning boxset for Dolly! 99 songs across four CDs, including her hits plus rarities and unreleased tracks. Also includes never-before-seen photos and rare memorabilia! With an introduction written by singer-songwriter Laura Cantrell and new liner notes written by noted Dolly Parton historian Holly George-Warren.
Of all the wondrous things Dolly Parton has accumulated during her spectacular life in show business - seven Grammy awards, two Oscar nominations, a Tony nomination and her 1999 induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame, to name just a handful - the one thing missing from her eye-opening resume was a career-spanning boxset that featured the music from her earliest days as a recording artist through her chart-topping days with RCA up to her current status as a bona-fide national treasure.
From her first national hit in 1977, the ironically titled "Dumb Blonde" (nobody with a lick of sense ever accused Dolly of that!) and the legendary '70s duets with Porter Wagoner, from her first number one single ("Joshua") in 1970 to her 26th number one in 1991 ("Rockin' Years," a duet with Ricky Shelton) and all train stops in between, Dolly has it all. "To Know Him is to Love Him" from the fertile three-way collaboration with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris, the amazing crossover pop smashes, including the heartfelt duet with Kenny Rogers "Islands in the Stream," as well as revered jukebox staples "9 to 5" and "Here You Come Again," this boxset treasure trove covers all the bases. You may never leave home again...but if you do, be sure to take Dolly along for the ride.
