Description
Jolene is Dolly Partons 13th solo studio album, produced by Bob Ferguson. It was released in February 1974.
A sparkling production creates a rich backdrop for both Jolene and When Someone Wants to Leave. This tasteful mix is a joy to listen to. The music and Partons vocal prowess are in top form on Jolene. The title track tells the tale of a housewife confronting a beautiful seductress who she believes is having an affair with her husband. It became the second solo number one Country single and a moderate Pop hit.
Partons female protagonists are downright pitiful, adrift in a world where a more attractive woman might take their man, where a woman cannot let go of a man who no longer loves her.
