Comments for Parton, Dolly, Heartsongs

A real pleasure. After decades of bland pop schlock, it''s nice to see Dolly prove that she''s not just another island in the stream.

An outstanding album by one of the most talented performers in country music. It was recorded live at her Dollywood theme park in Pigeon Forge, TN.The album covers a wide range of song styles -- some traditional (like Barbara Allen, sungwith an Irish group Altan), some gospel (a great rendition of WayfaringStranger), some of her older songs (Smoky Mountain Memories, Coat ofMany Colors) and one wonderful new one (PMS Blues). Overall, a great wayto spend an hour!
