Dolly Parton Rockstar

"If I'm gonna be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, I'm going to have to earn it," Dolly Parton commented upon her 2022 induction into the Cleveland hall.  She promised that a rock and roll album was on the way, and today, she made good on that promise...with what essentially amounts to two such records!  On November 17, Dolly's own Butterfly Records in association with Big Machine will release Rockstar, a whopping 2-CD or 4-LP collection with 30 songs featuring some of the biggest names in the
