Dolly Parton marked her 78th birthday by releasing a new edition of her latest album, ‘Rockstar’, featuring four new songs.
The latest LP from the country icon already boasted a mammoth tracklist featuring guest appearances from P!nk, Stevie Nicks, Miley Cyrus, Duran Duran’s Simon Le Bon and others, and to mark her big day on Friday (January 19) Dolly added another four tunes into the mix.
“Hey fans and friends, It’s my birthday so I’m going to give you a present!” she wrote in a post on X. “I’m releasing four never released songs for my birthday, to go with the Rockstar album, and a few others that you may have heard before that were not on the album.
“I hope you enjoy them, and I hope you all have a happy birthday for me! LOL.”
Speaking at the time of release, Dolly added of the record: “I’m so excited to finally present my first Rock and Roll album, ‘Rockstar’!
“I am very honoured and privileged to have worked with some of the greatest iconic singers and musicians of all time and to be able to sing all the iconic songs throughout the album was a joy beyond measure.”
In a review of the album, RETROPOP called ‘Rockstar’ “a great romp of an album and a testament to the force of nature that is Dolly Parton”.
