Dolly-Parton

Born on Jan. 19 1946 at Locust Ridge Tenn into a struggling family that would one day include 12 children Dolly Parton learned early to escape the hardships of life with her vast and imaginative imagination. Before she could read and write she was singing her own tunes. In 8 years, she had her very first guitar. In the age of 11 when she was 11, she began singing on Knoxville Tenn's radio station. That same year she made her first album on Gold Band Records a tiny independent label. Although she was at school, she already made a name for herself on the local scene. The goal for her was to become better well-known. After she finished her high school, in 1964, she relocated to Nashville. Dumb Blonde was her first single to reach the top of the charts on Monument Records. Porter Wagoner had been looking for a female vocalist for his show that was syndicated in the years prior to this. Parton was hired in 1967, signed with RCA Records by 1968, and became a member of the Grand Ole Opry. But she resigned from the show in 1974 as her solo releases such as Joshua Coat of Many Colors and Jolene were out-charting their collaborations. The two split in 1974, Parton wrote the song I Will Always Love You for Wagoner and it went to Number. 1 for the first time in 1974.
