Dolly-Parton
Dolly Parton escaped the struggles that shaped her life at an early age by using her creative and imaginative imagination. Before learning how to read or write Dolly Parton was composing her own songs. When she was eight, she bought her first electric guitar and began to sing at a Knoxville Tenn Radio Station. Gold Band Records is a small, independent label. At the age of 16, she was able to establish herself within the community, but her goals were bigger. The day after she graduated in 1964, she moved to Nashville. Dumb Blonde was her first album to be charted for the first time on Monument Records. Around this time, Porter Wagoner was looking for the next girl to perform on his syndicated television show. Parton was signed to RCA Records and then joined the Grand Ole Opry. She accepted her job in 1967. She quit Wagoner's act in 1974 when her solo singles like Joshua Coat of Many Colors & Jolene outsold the collaborations. Parton recorded I Will Always love You for Wagoner following their split. It reached number one. #1 for the first time since 1974.
