Free Music Review: Dolly is Better than EVER!!!
Hit: 5 Stars
Dolly is making some the best music of her career. Radio needs to wake up and realize she is a legend and has legions of fans. This has to be one of her best albums EVER! Free Music Review: SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE!
Hit: 5 Stars
Dolly's "Backwoods Barbie" cd has so many great songs on it, and a little bit of something for a variety of musical tastes. The title track is a pure country Dolly autobiographical tune, while "She Drives Me Crazy" is a lot of fun for anyone who was young when the original version was released. "Jesus and Gravity" is such a wonderful, spiritual song, and probably will be up next to "He's Alive" out of her greatest gospel songs. Dolly sings her heart out on every song and puts so much emotion into each one. The overall feel of it is like her early 90's album "Hungry Again", but updated with a lot more musical styles, including the blues number "The Lonesomes". And I can't forget to mention the upbeat "Shinola" in which Dolly gives off some sass! I've been waiting for this cd for a while and I was not disappointed!Free Music Review: Phenomenon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Miss Dolly

Hit: 5 Stars
Dolly Parton's new CD "Backwoods Barbie" has brought the 7 time Grammy winner back to the top where she belongs. Released on February 26, 2008 the album is one of the top 5 best Dolly Parton albums after "Jolene", "Coat of Many Colors", "Here You Come Again", "Halos and Horns", and "New Harvest-First Gathering". Fans will relish in hearing the Dolly they have come to love. The album has something for everyone; great country tunes, wonderful remakes, and perfect music. Ask any female in country music who their idol is and Dolly Parton is their answer.
"Backwoods Barbie" is Dolly's first album for her very own record label named appropriately "Dolly Records". Debuting at number 2 on the country Billboard Charts on March 6th,2008 the CD is Dolly's highest debut for any album she has ever put out. Selling 27,000 copies in its first week alone the CD also debut at #17 pop. These numbers are amazing as country radio has foolishly ignored the divas' music, thus not promoting the album and due to some minor back problems Dolly won't be publicizing the album until April. Fans have shown they love their Dolly and Dolly has proven she is the best singer and entertainer to ever come out of Nashville.
Dolly wrote 9 songs on the album including the first single "Better Get To Livin" with the albums co-producer Kent Wells. The follow up single will be "Jesus and Gravity" written by Craig Wiseman and Betsy Ulmer, and it will become a classic Dolly song. Simply amazing. Other top songs are the haunting "Cologne", "Made of Stone" and the title track which Dolly wrote about herself and will be in the 9 to 5 Broadway musical. "Only Dreamin'" sounds very much like Dolly's 2001 classsic "Little Sparrow". Wonderful! The most country song on the CD is the beautiful "I Will Forever Hate Roses".
The packaging of the CD, which is Dolly's 77th album, is the best ever with beautiful artwork featuring gorgeous Dolly pics surounded by Dolly's favorite color pink. The old Ed Careff Dolly logo is also brought back on this album as it was always a favorite of Dolly fans on her RCA LP's in the '70's and '80's. There's also a great booklet found hidden on the inside of the CD cover featuring song lyrics to every song. The pictures of Dolly were taken last fall in Tennessee. The pickup truck Dolly sits on is owned by one of Dolly's employees at Dollywood who wouldn't sell the vehicle to Dolly. Dolly can always offer him more money down the road!
A perfect album from a perfect entertainer. Dolly Parton thanks for the wonderful music and it's great to have you back where you belong! You are my idol and I Will Always Love You!
Free Music Review: Among Dolly's Best!
Hit: 5 Stars
I have followed Dolly's music for years, and have all her albums and CD's since New Harvest First Gathering back in 1977. Aside from her two bluegrass CD's, The Grass is Blue, and LIttle Sparrow (which I believe are her all-time best recordings), Backwoods Barbie is among her best. Considering she wrote most of the songs on "Barbie," this makes it a landmark release. It's amazing that at this stage in her life and career, she continues to put out her best work ever. Highlights on the CD are Better Get to Living, Jesus and Gravity, and Drives Me Crazy. I have played Jesus and Gravity over and over - an amazing song. I have hopes that radio will play that one, but based on what's happened in recent years, we may not hear much of this CD on radio. Dolly doesn't need radio anyway. Every fan of Dolly's music should get this CD and play it for your friends!
