About

Listen to the bell-clear sweetness of 1971’s <i>Coat of Many Colors</i> and you might mistake Dolly Parton for simple. And in important way, she was: Few artists have rendered optimism with such clarity and heart. Even in the bleakest of scene, she managed to find beauty—the warmth of the sun flooding a lonely woman’s room (“My Blue Tears”), the look of a mother’s face when she feels like she has nothing left (“If I Lose My Mind”). In another artist’s hand, a story of poverty as stark as the title track might sound bitter or barbed. But in Parton’, it becomes a parable for the lesson that you can’t always control the circumstances of your life, but you can control whether those circumstances make you a victim. .
