Dolly-Parton

Dolly Parton escaped the struggles in her early life through her imaginative and creative imagination. Before she learned to read or write Dolly Parton was composing her own music. In the year she turned eight, she bought her first electric guitar. She began singing on an Knoxville Tenn Radio Station. Her first album was recorded during the same year Gold Band Records, a small independent label. Her name was made for herself locally while still at high school, but always dreamed of having a bigger stage. In the exact day that she graduated the high school in 1964. Dumb Blonde (1967) and Something Fishy (1968) were her two first charting albums for Monument Records. At about this time Porter Wagoner was looking for a new girl singer for the show he had syndicated to television. Parton accepted the job and in the year 1967, she signed with RCA Records in 1968 and joined the Grand Ole Opry in 1969. But she resigned from the show in 1974 as her solo songs like Joshua Coat of Many Colors and Jolene had begun charting their collaborative efforts. Parton recorded "I Will Always Love You" in support of Wagoner just after the pair split. It reached the top spot at No. The first time it made it to the top spot was in 1974.
