LOS ANGELES (AP) — Last year, Dolly Parton was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame — against her wishes.
Now, almost exactly a year later, she's releasing her first rock ‘n’ roll album, appropriately titled “Rockstar," on Friday.
Parton once thought she'd record a “Linda Ronstadt-type rock album,” but had felt she was getting too old.
“I care about people, human suffering and all of that.”“World On Fire,” she says, was written after she thought the album was completed.
For now, Parton says “Rockstar” is her first and last rock album.
