A while back I wrote this post about how the hit song “I will always love you” went to #1 on the charts on three different occasions.
In a nutshell, that post explained how Dolly wrote that song about her mentor and duet partner Porter Wagoner to let him know how much she cared about him after she made the decision to leave Porter’s TV show.
In the short video below, Dolly gives a more detailed description of how all of that played out at the time, in her own words. After she finishes speaking she sings the song again for our listening pleasure.
I invite to watch this touching explanation and tribute to the man who played a major role in making Dolly Parton a Country Music icon.
