Heartsongs: Live from Home
Heartsongs: Live from Home is a live album by Dolly Parton, released on September 27, 1994. Recorded at a concert at Parton's theme park Dollywood, the album featured a mix of Parton originals and traditional folk songs. "To Daddy" was one of Parton's compositions that she had never previously released; Emmylou Harris, who recorded the song in 1978, took her recording of the song to the U.S. country singles top three). The campy "PMS Blues" went on to become a concert favorite, and received a fair amount of airplay as an album track. Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh sung Irish vocals on "Barbara Allen".

gollark: Well, it is scamming and against the rules and typical tjwld.
gollark: That's just normal English grammar shuffled and spaceless.
gollark: A grammarless sentence would probably just be unpunctuated and a mishmash of random concepts.
