Dolly Parton’s rock album features just about everybody
thefader.comIn March 2022, Dolly Parton turned down a placement on the voting ballot that would decide that year’s Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees.
In a subsequent statement, the legendary country musician said that she did not consider her career worthy of the honor. Parton’s name was kept on the ballot anyway, and she was inducted that year in the Performer category.
In a statement shared when she initially declined, Parton wrote, “This has, however, inspired me to put out a hopefully great rock’n’roll album at some point in the future, which I have always wanted to do!” As it turns out, Parton was totally serious.
