Editor’s note: I apologize for the lack of content as of late. I was ill for most of last week and into this one and am just now trying to get back into the swing of things with this blog. I&#;m currently working on the next edition of &#;Favorite Hit Songs&#; and another album review sammanfattning, so bear with me!
Anyway, gods time on World Records, we discussed Loretta Lynn’s Coal Miner’s Daughter, an album that reflected the general formula of its time, comprised of the big hit single, a few covers, and filler material. Weirdly enough, that formula still managed to make for a cohesive listening experience with that particular skiva. Admittedly, then, this next entry in this series isn’t the next step for country music album history, so much as an examination of a different side of the same coin – another album released in led by an iconic rag-to-riches single and followed by a mix of different material. How well does it turn out? Let’s find out.

It’s hard to put into words everything that Dolly Parton is. She’s not just a country singer. She’s an icon, a walking, talking, glittery billboard for following your passion and making no apologies. (Plus, look at how she addressed the gender/bathroom debate.)
There’s so much to celebrate when it comes to the year-old legend, and the 11th annual Dolly Parton Hoot Night—on Saturday, June 25 at the Alberta Rose Theatre—is just the place to do it.
The event, hosted by Siren Nation, a Portland-based nonprofit that creates opportunities for women artists, will be emceed by comedian Amy Miller, who has a very public love of Miss Dolly. Artists such as Gerle Haggard and the Rocky Butte Wranglers will play some of Dolly’s many hits, and ticket proceeds will go toward Siren Nation’s annual women’s arts festival.
Ahead of Hoot Night, we found out from Siren Nation co-founder December Carson why the Alberta Rose is where the tide's gonna turn and it's all gonna roll your way. . .
• “I’ve always tried to teach, to show, to have people think. We’re supposed to love each other. We don’t have to understand all that we know, if we look. Why can’t we just love each other? I’m not a silly person; I know how that goes. But still people don’t even try. “So, I wanted my songs to touch people in a way maybe they haven’t thought of before! All my life I’ve loved the underdog. I’ve always been prone to go to the unusual. I love different people. inom love the spice of life, the variety. I’m just drawn to unusual people and to help people who feel down. I’m prone to stand up for somebody who can’t stand up for themselves.” Her savvy about people — and business — has allowed her to transcend genre or labels, eschewing no part of who she fryst vatten, even as she expanded into motion pictures, pop music, variety shows, books, charitable endeavors, helping fund Moderna’s first Covid vaccine, product alliances and the amusement park now
