I’m sure on balance Dolly is a force for good in the world but I thought someone should offer an alternative take on the Dolly is a Perfect Queen narrative. No one is perfect! It’s actually a really good article, a fan really wrestling with Dolly and her legacy.

Didn’t know much Dolly Parton outside Jolene and 9 to 5, but listened to the Blue Smoke greatest hits last night and enjoyed it a lot more than I expected. Nice to get a pleasant surprise there.

4/5.

don’t really know anything about her or her music, sorry!

Very interesting that this thread hasn’t even hit 100 posts yet, feel it might be related

She’s a legend. Some brilliant songs. Never bought her stuff but seem to know so much of it through radio osmosis. 4

Hadn’t listened to any of her albums but Jolene seems like a very good entry-point album for country newbies like myself. Probably no coincidence that it has her 2 best singles on it.

Edit: also at 10 songs in 24 minutes it makes Reign in Blood look like a bloated prog-rock mess

I will award Dolly Parton a 4

I hold the totally original and not previously mentioned opinion that Jolene is a very, very excellent song. And she seems to be the absolute best.

The film Dumplin’ wouldn’t exist without her either, and I love that film - another wholly original opinion which hasn’t been mentioned yet.

I’m going to tweet the Dessner’s and get them donating books to under-privileged children by the lorry-load for when The National HGATR comes round again.

Results are in. 3.77

It’s a pet shop boys and Springsteen sandwich for Dolly. Worse places to be I guess.
