Home for Christmas (Dolly Parton album)

Home for Christmas is the thirtieth solo studio album by Dolly Parton. It was released on September 11, 1990, by Columbia Records. Unlike her 1984 duet holiday album Once Upon a Christmas with Kenny Rogers, which included a number of original songs, Home for Christmas relied heavily on classic holiday favorites. Its release was accompanied by an ABC television special. This album was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America.[2]
