 The most celebrated female in country
music history, Dolly Parton, adds another career
milestone to her long list of accomplishments!!!
With the release of her 42nd studio album, BLUE
SMOKE, Parton scores her highest charting solo
album ever. Parton, amazingly, has only visited
the top 10 of the Billboard 200 once: with the
collaborative set "Trio," with Emmylou
Harris and Linda Ronstadt. It peaked at No. 6 on
May 2, 1987, after earlier debuting at No. 38 on
March 28, 1987.
“I am glad that people are enjoying the
music from my new Blue Smoke album. It feels
great to be in the Top 10,” says Dolly
Parton. “It’s always an honor to know
the fans spend their hard earned money on my
music. Thanks everybody!”
In terms of Parton's solo efforts, she's gone as
high as No. 11 on the Billboard 200 with "9
to 5 and Odd Jobs," on March 21, 1981. That
album of course featured her No. 1 Billboard Hot
100 single "9 to 5", as well as the No.
41 hit "But You Know I Love You" and
the No. 77-peaking "The House of the Rising
Sun."
Parton's chart history on the Top Country Albums
chart is more befitting of her living-legend
status: She's notched 42 top 10 albums, with six
of them going to No. 1. On the Hot Country Songs
chart, she holds the record for the most No. 1s
among women, with 25.www.DollyPartonEntertainment.com
