Dolly, Dolly, Dolly was a 1980 album by Dolly Parton. Coming at the height of her late 1970s-80s quest for pop success, the album was her least country-sounding album to that point, with a number of songs bordering on disco. Though the album's two singles, "Starting Over Again" (written by disco diva Donna Summer) and "Old Flames Can't Hold A Candle To You" topped the U.S. country charts ("Starting Over Again" also hit #36 on the pop charts), the album is generally regarded by critics, as well as Parton's fans, as one of the worst albums of her career; it was almost universally panned at the time of its release, with only People Magazine liking it.
In 2007, the album was reisused in the UK as a "two-fer", along with 1979's Great Balls of Fire, marking the first time it was available on CD.
