Dolly Parton Pure & Simple (2-CD)

(Sony Music) 26 tracks

Dolly Parton is the country icon par excellence and can look back on an incomparable career with 25 number one hits and several Grammy awards. But the 70-year-old singer is far from thinking about retiring. Instead, she has recorded a new, touching album about love.

'I may not be as pure and clean as freshly fallen snow, but I'm honest and authentic to the core! This new project 'Pure & Simple' is really close to my heart, I'm taking my fans on a journey to my roots. These songs have a pure, tender side and we have deliberately kept the arrangements simple. I'm very happy about this collaboration with Sony, thanks to whom we can present this album to the fans,' says Dolly Parton, who co-produced the album.
