Much of the decades-long career created by country icon Dolly Parton has been captured on film, and with a new box set, the legendary artist distills it into one package.
Set for release on September 21, DOLLY: THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION will trace the career of a true country diva, featuring some of her most memorable on-camera moments.
Conceived like a greatest hits package of visual content, the set arrives as a six-disc Time Life collection, with clips from the ’60s through today. Highlighting 50 years of Parton’s work — which producers describe as “singing and laughing her way into our hearts,” it will include many of the moments that fans will never forget, along with some they never knew existed.
From star-studded episodes from her fan-favorite ’80s variety show, to a special Christmas disc, Dolly’s unforgettable 2009 Live from London concert and more, here’s what fans can expect:
- 11 star-studded episodes of Dolly’s variety show from the ’80s with guest appearances by Oprah Winfrey, Kenny Rogers, Emmylou Harris, Linda Ronstadt, Willie Nelson, The Smothers Brothers, and more.
- A special Christmas disc featuring A Down Home Country Christmas with Mac Davis and Burl Ives, and Bob Hope’s Jolly Christmas Show
- Dolly’s unforgettable Live From London concert
- Plus the 2019 BBC documentary Dolly Parton: Here I Am
DOLLY: THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION is out September 21 and available nationally in Walmart and select retailers. Fans can pick the box set up for $49.99.
Of course, Dolly Parton is still writing her history. Her danceable new jam, “Sent From Above,” was just released, taking the country icon on a trip into modern electronica. She’s also gearing up for the release of a new duet with Reba McEntire.
