Dolly Parton: Little Sparrow (2001)
I downloaded this, cuz I heard it was good.
No this isn't the schmaltzy Dolly of the Late 70's-90's. This is the Dolly getting back to her Bluegrass and Apalachian roots. If you enjoy the bluegrass at the Winnipeg Folk Fest or of "O Brother Where art Tho?" then you'll love this one. She really does have an amazing voice! There is still no forgiving her for Islands in the Stream, though.

Back off with the Islands in the Stream trashing! I suppose you also have a comment about I Will Always Love You (words and music by Dolly).She sang it to Burt in The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas and it remains as one of my fave love songs. (Of course Whitney tarnished it with her way-too-strong rendition in The Bodyguard but I choose to forget that.)
"Bitter-sweet memories
That’s all I have, and all I’m taking with me
Good-bye, oh, please don’t cry
’cause we both know that I’m not
What you need"
