Another amazing album by Dolly Parton. This album consists of some amazing and emotional songs. Dolly has always been a religious woman and in this album she really shows her religious and patriotic beliefs. Re-mastering some classics such as Tie A Yellow Ribbon and My Country 'Tis, whilst also belting out amazing songs such as God Bless The USA and even The Star Spangled Banner. Dolly however never takes herself too seriously and whilst this album ... ...herself has a nice comical song in Gee, Ma. I wanna go home.

Another amazing album by Dolly Parton. This album consists of some amazing and emotional songs. Dolly has always been a religious woman and in this album she really shows her religious and patriotic beliefs. Re-mastering some classics such as Tie A Yellow Ribbon and My Country 'Tis, whilst also belting out amazing songs such as God Bless The USA and even The Star Spangled Banner. Dolly however never takes herself too seriously and whilst this album includes heart wrenching tracks such as Brave Little Soldier, Dolly herself has a nice comical song in Gee, Ma. I wanna go home. The innocence that always seems to be hang around with Mrs Parton is still there in this album, especially when singing about the war and how she supports the troops. From my experience this album made even an British man fall in love with the USA and take a whole new look on life.

Album Notes
Personnel: Dolly Parton (vocals); Kent Wells (acoustic & electric guitars, background vocals); Bruce Watkins, Robert Hale (acoustic guitar); Gary "Biscuit" Davis (banjo); Randy Kohrs (dobro); Jimmy Mattingly (mandolin, fiddle); Darrell Webb (mandolin, background vocals); Michael Davis (piano, Hammond B-3 organ, synthesizer, programming); Paul Hollowell (piano, Hammond B-3 organ); Charlie Anderson, Jay Weaver (bass); Steve Turner, Billy Thomas (drums, percussion); Richard Dennison, Jennifer O'Brien, Vicki Hampton, Monty Allen, Steven Hill, Bob Bailey, Louis Nunley, Robert Hale, David Slater, Sheryl Thomas, Lynn Wright (background vocals). Taking this album's title quite literally, Dolly Parton takes a sharp right from her previous few albums of progressive bluegrass. In the wake of the Iraq war, Parton wanted to record a tribute to the soldiers fighting for America. Ironically, after recently recording countrified versions of songs like "Stairway to Heaven," Parton delivers these patriotic songs in a completely straightforward fashion. Other than the inherent twang of her pristine voice, there's little country flavor added to the arrangements here. The like of "When Johnny Comes Marching Home" and "The Star Spangled Banner" are delivered in a traditional, militaristic manner. The flag-wavers that fell from Parton's own pen, however, can't help but display the country legend's musical roots, and it's these that are the ultimate standouts.
