Description
Country Queens is a nostalgic tribute album pairing two rising stars of the early '60s country scene: Dolly Parton and Faye Tucker. Recorded before Dolly's mainstream breakthrough, this compilation showcases her renditions of Kitty Wells classics alongside heartfelt traditional ballads and an original composition. Faye Tucker complements the set with soulful interpretations of Patsy Cline’s hits and one original track. Originally released by Somerset Records, this reissue preserves the raw charm and emotional sincerity of two young artists paying homage to their musical heroines.
This CD is a collector’s gem for fans of early country music, Dolly Parton completists, and lovers of vintage tribute recordings. The lo-fi production and earnest performances offer a glimpse into the formative years of one of country music’s most iconic voices.
