From the humblest of beginnings Dolly soon learned she could sing and spread her message in the streets and stages around the world . . . . . .
. . . . . until superstardom beckoned

but lest we forget it was ALWAYS about the music!
posted his clip and if anyone doubted her musicianship check this with a country band!
From The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, November 1999…" I fell in love with her and her music when I was 10 yrs old, watching the early morning TV shows out of Nashville. Never dreaming then, that I would have the tremendous fortune of picking and singing and playing music on records and TV shows someday with the one and only Dolly Parton. She was a genuine genius, a true visionary, and as shrewd in business as she was in music. She knew what she wanted and how she wanted it and surrounded herself with talented people who could make her dreams happen. And she was FUNNY! A quick wit who found humor and goodness and kindness wherever she could. We laughed as much as we picked and sang. Thank you, Dolly. I am filled with grace and gratitude for your life and all you brought to us"
Whilst well said from Sam thewhole clip is a necessity IMHO
