The country music icon talked about her tour and the release of a double-album featuring new songs and top hits on a conference call earlier this year.
“We’ll be doing on-stage all the favorites – ‘Jolene’, ‘I Will Always Love You’, ‘9 to 5’ and ‘Islands in the Stream,’” Parton said. “And then we’ll do our gospel things and our corny jokes.”
Parton’s tour includes stops in Boston and Queens.
