Built around one of country's most enduring songs, plus the autobiographical 'I Will Always Love You'. Plain-spoken and beautifully sung. Essential Dolly. The run's deeper cut — rewarding if you've worn out the earlier records.
On vinyl: Well-pressed originals still surface at reasonable prices; modern reissues are a safe bet if you want new.
