Dolly Parton - Heartbreak Express

Coming off a big motion picture and the accompanying album (click here for my review of 9 to 5 and Odd Jobs), Dolly Parton was ready to tackle her twenty-fourth solo studio album.

On April 15th, 1982, exactly thirty years ago today, she released Heartbreak Express and returned to her more traditional country music roots. The album went to number 106 on the US Billboard Hot 200 and number 5 on the US Country Album charts. It generated two Top 10 country hit singles as well.
