''Hello, I'm Dolly'' was Dolly Parton's 1967 debut album. ==Album information== Parton had previously contributed tracks to a 1963 Kitty Wells / Patsy Cline tribute album, but ''Hello, I'm Dolly'' represented her first full-length album. It contained Parton's hits "Dumb Blonde" (written by Curly Putman) and "Something Fishy" (written by Parton), both of which reached the top twenty on the U.S. country singles charts, and the album itself reached #11 on the country albums chart, a remarkable achievement, considering that Parton was largely an unknown at that point. The album (along with its two hit singles, which received a considerable amount of airplay) is largely credited with bringing Parton to the attention of Porter Wagoner, who, in late 1967, would invite Parton to join his band and appear on his weekly television show. The album contains Parton's versions of three songs she wrote that had already been hits for others by the time her debut album appeared: "Put it Off Until Tomorrow" (a hit for Bill Phillips), "Fuel to the Flame" which had been a hit for Skeeter Davis, and "I'm in No Condition" which made charted in a version by Hank Williams Jr., although it was not a major hit. Though she released a number of singles during her two-year tenure with Monument (1965–67),'' Hello, I'm Dolly'' was her only original album released during her time with the label. Shortly after its release, she joined Porter Wagoner's organization (appearing on his road show and his weekly syndicated television series), and signed with his label RCA. Monument released an album of unreleased/non LP Parton tracks, ''As Long As I Love'', in 1970. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hello, I'm Dolly」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
