“I stared this song one time after leaving home one late summer from a visit with my family. I was so sad to leave and always felt home sick till the next year. With the help of my dad and, good friend, Carmen M. Bennett, we finished the song and could not be prouder of it! I am a proud Coaster and love where I come from. To speak about that in a song seems only natural and pure. I’m still that small town girl, proud of my small town world!!!!”

Dolly Parton, Pure & Simple
We had a chance to catch up with the amazing Dolly Parton last week to talk about her 43rd studio album Pure & Simple which was released August 19th.
