Dolly-Parton

Dolly Parton, born Jan. 19, 1946, in Locust Ridge Tenn. to 12 hungry children who would grow up together eventually, learned very early how to get out of the difficulties she faced with her incredibly vibrant imagination. The songs she wrote were composed before she knew how to write or read. The guitar that she first received was presented by her mother when she was eighteen. The singer began her singing career at an Knoxville Tenn station by the age of 11. Her first album was recorded within the same calendar year Gold Band Records, a small label that was an independent. Although she became popular in the local scene while she was at the high school years, her dreams were much bigger. The singer moved to Nashville following her graduation in 1964. Dumb Blonde was her first single to reach the top of the charts for the first time on Monument Records. Porter Wagoner began looking for female singers to join his syndicated television program at around the exact as the time. Parton was offered the gig and in the year 1967, she signed with RCA Records in 1968 and was a part of the Grand Ole Opry in 1969. However she left Wagoner's show in 1974, as her own albums like Joshua Coat of Many Colors and Jolene were out-charting their collaborations. Parton wrote "I I Will Never Forget You" in support of Wagoner shortly after they separated. The track reached number. First time, in 1974.
