"This is a collection of various Dolly Parton hits from her career in the late 70's/early to mid 80's. Some are very well known hits while others may not have done well, but fans have found a place in their hearts for it. The collection begins with the disco/pop hit Baby Im Burnin, from her Heartbreaker album. The original version of Starting Over Again, which Reba McEntire recorded in 1995 as a cover, the song is timeless, from her Dolly Dolly Dolly album. Working Girl and Single Women further venture into pop territory, from her album Working Girl from her 9 To 5 And Odd Jobs album, Single Women from her Heartbreak Express album. But You Know I Love You, another classic song only Dolly could sing is here as well, originally on her 9 to 5 and Odd Jobs album. God Wont Get You is a lesser known hit, it was from her 1983 movie Rhinestone. Old Flames (Cant Hold A Candle To You) makes an appearance, a hit from the Dolly Dolly Dolly album.Other hits include Its All Wrong, But Its All Right, from her Here You Come Again album, House of the Rising Sun, from her 9 to 5 and Odd Jobs album, and Potential New Boyfriend, from the much underrated Burlap and Satin, which still proves to be her most satisfying album from the 80's.This collection is nice for fans, but overall these songs can be found on other Parton Greatest Hits collections. Until fans are treated to a Dolly box set, these will have to do, or until they release a nice collection, we will have to come back to these various greatest hits packages."
