Dolly-Parton
Dolly Parton escaped the struggles in her early life by using her creative and imaginative imagination. Before learning how to write and read Dolly Parton had already begun to compose her own songs. The first guitar she received was gifted to her at the age of eighteen. She began singing in a Knoxville Tenn station by the age of eleven. She recorded her first album within the same calendar year Gold Band Records, a small independent label. Even though she became popular in the local scene while she was at High School, she knew her goals were greater. The day after she graduated in 1964, she moved to Nashville. Dumb Blonde, Something Fishy and Dumb Blonde both charted on Monument Records in 1967. Porter Wagoner had been looking for a female singer to perform on his show syndicated by him from the beginning. Parton joined RCA Records and then joined the Grand Ole Opry. She took on the role in 1967. The show was cancelled by Wagoner, but in 1974, because her solo albums like Joshua Coat Of Many Colors and Jolene beat out their collaborative albums. The two split in 1974, Parton wrote the song I Will Always Love You for Wagoner and it climbed to No. 1. for the first time in 1974.
