Just turned on the news and was shocked to hear Dolly has died. I'm not a huge country fan and I never bought any of her records but she was inspirational. There is a saying among my wife's musician friends "take your music seriously but don't take yourself seriously" and she was the essence of that. She has left a huge legacy and was the best of America.
RIP,
Cheers,
Chris
I agree completely, Chris.
Here's an example, but not the one I quote from time to time on my layout thread:
Interviewer: "Miss Parton, how long does it take to do your hair for one of your performances?"
Dolly: "Shucks, Honey, I don't know because I'm never in the same room when they are doing it."
Thanks again.
John
I think she said "It costs a fortune to make me look this cheap"
RIP Dolly.
That's rather sorry, very good, John. :thumbsup:
It's very sad that such an icon has gone from us, but I do wish the BBC would stop wallowing in it and asking anyone who has a voice to give soundbites
Dolly was LEGEND she was an inspiration to all Country Music fans
She will be missed but her Music will go on forever.
May she R I P .
