Dolly hit the mark with her first mainstream cd in over 17 years! Every song is great, there are no fillers. Dolly's version of "Tracks of My Tears" is phenominal!!! Her "Backwoods Barbie" takes a playful poke at herself and gives us a glimpse into the life of Dolly. You will not be disappointed, this cd will go beyond pleasing!Free Music Review: Dolly is BACK!!!!!!!

I have been waiting for what seems like forever for Dolly to return to mainstream country! Not that I don't love her work on Sugar Hill (I own all of the relases including the box)but working in country radio I was hoping for something that my listeners would REALLY get into. And Dolly has delivered! If you're a fan of Dolly's work then you'll definitely not go wrong with picking this one up. It's a sold CD of Dolly's brand of Country/Pop with a touch of bluegrass thrown in for good measure. The lead off single, "Better Get To Livin'" has Dolly giving us some sage advice on getting our acts together. The new single, "Jesus & Gravity" is solid as well. The title cut, "Backwoods Barbie" is an updated version of her life story and from what I hear will be in the Broadway show "9 To 5". "Cologne" is another great story song in classic Parton style. Her cover of the Fine Young Cannibal's "(You Drive Me) Crazy" is even fun and fits right in with the others. Give 'er a sample listen and I'm sure you'll get the cd and love it as much as I do! Happy Listening!Free Music Review: The Barbie is back...

Dolly Parton is a living legend--the tawdy jokes, her plastic surgery, and her amazing music all create the image that we know as Dolly. After creating a remarkable trio of bluegrass albums Dolly returns to a "mainstream" sound. And what a return it is.
"Better Get To Livin'" has been released for a few months and is the album's sparkling opener. Dolly sings of her optimism and makes the perfect point that life is made for living and it's time to hope on that train. The second single "Jesus & Gravity" is a prayerful tribute to Dolly's faith--something she's never been shy to sing about. The song is a fully produced anthem complete with the engrossing cresendo of a gospel classic.
From start to finish this album is perfect. Dolly's writing has never lost it's touch, the soon to be classic "Cologne" will no doubt be included in Dolly's repetoire for years to come. The title track "Backwoods Barbie" is classic Dolly. Sweet, defiant, and pure country--in fact it harkens back her early 70's material from RCA. It fits snuggly with her legendary hits like "Jolene" and "Coat Of Many Colors". Other highlights include the brawlin' "Shinola", the heavenly "Only Dreamin'", and her fun cover of "Drives Me Crazy" (complete with bluegrass tinged sing a-long spunk).
Having been on the burner for months, it's great to see this amazing (and classic) Dolly album finally available. With the plethora of pop-oriented country available it's great to get your hands on a true country album from one of country's most thrilling legends. A definate must own.

I have always been a Dolly fan, but I must say this is some of her best work. The songs sound true and originally Dolly ( other than the two covers ). Even for non-fans this is a must have cd fo the music lover. Dolly is a true living legend, and I hope she keeps going stong!!
