Dolly Parton All the Songs

Description

Dolly Parton All the Songs is an album-by-album, track-by-track deep dive into the almost 60-year career of a musical icon. This completist's guide features more than 400 photographs and tells the little-known stories behind how each of Dolly's albums came together, including behind-the-scenes details about the recording of each track, the musicians involved, and the songwriting process.

Organised chronologically and covering every album and every song that Dolly has ever released, Dolly Parton All the Songs is the result of years of research by three Dolly megafans and longtime music journalists. Beginning with a childhood famously spent making music with her family in Tennessee's Great Smoky Mountains, Dolly Parton All the Songs follows along as the country music superstar conquers Nashville, Hollywood, and then the world with her captivating music, unforgettable style, and unmatched humour and kindness.

At 608 pages, Dolly Parton All the Songs is filled with amazing photographs of Dolly in all her glory, and it features tons of fascinating details about Dolly's recording process, including which musicians appeared on each track, and little-known details about her working relationship with Porter Wagoner (she wrote the classic track "I Will Always Love You" about him), as well as looking at her forays into film stardom with appearances in classic movies like 9 to 5, Steel Magnolias, and the recent Netflix series, Heartstrings.

This is a must-have book for any fan of Dolly Parton and country music.
