  • Found this in storage after 30 years. Concert was on the night of October 6, 1979, at Sevier County High School. Earlier the same day she attended the dedication of the Dolly Parton Parkway.
    Her family was there, including her daddy and grandpa. Her daddy was working the t-shirt stand for something to do, but said "hush" to us when we spoke to him--he didn't want anyone to know who he was so he wouldn't get mobbed by people.
    Recorded on a Panasonic industrial VHS camera and recorder.

    I WAS THERE!! Such a great memory. I have seen Dolly in concert many times , but this was my favorite. She was so happy to come home a star...and all the East Tennessee area were so proud for her! There will never be another Dolly Parton.

    If this was Saturday, October 6th, it was right before Dolly performed on that year’s Country Music Awards, which she would have done on the following Monday night (October 8, 1979). she must have been in the midst of filming “Nine to Five” at that time too, and presumably took a break from that to return to Tennessee to do the Country Music Awards in Nashville, and this concert in Sevier County, and then back to Hollywood to resume work on “Nine to Five”. It was a busy time for Dolly.

    Regrets: Dixie Stampede in Orlando closed, I use to take my family there to get in the Christmas spirit, in 90 degree weather. My 94 yr old grandmother had never seen anything like it. Thanks Dolly.
    Other regrets: I've never met her.

    I remember when "To Daddy" came out and of course I was a lot younger, and things seemed a lot simpler then and that song sort of broke my heart because not only did she leave "Daddy" but she left the children also. She thought they were old enough that they didn't need her anymore, but I am now in my 70's and I can tell you that I STILL need my momma. I haven't had her for over 40 years, but I still need her and miss her. When this song came out, I wondered why she didn't explain the way she was feeling to Daddy and MAYBE things would have been different. Like I said, I was a lot younger then.

      That is not how these things work. Each song would require an individual license so that all appropriate parties (writers, producers, etc.) would receive royalties, not to mention the unauthorized profit of Dolly's likeness. Dolly would have to buy the footage and release it herself. That is very unlikely.

      @@NOVELBITES Normally you would be correct....except this was a free concert for anyone who wanted to attend. That pretty much puts this performance, not the songs themselves, in the "public domain". Accordingly, this specific performance is fair game so to speak when it comes to copying and distributing. Kinda of like if you take a photograph of Dolly walking down a sidewalk, she can't claim any ownership of that photo because she is in the public domain.

    Evergreen Dolly Parton. I'm in pain for not being in position to watch your show live. Great fan of Dolly since 1984. Still there in 2019.

    Dolly doesn't need to exercise. Walking around in 5 inch heels his work enough

    I remember the late Leslie Jordan saying that he drove from Chattanooga to Sevierville to see Dolly. When he first met Dolly, she didn’t believe he was actually at the concert. He recalled her saying several things during the concert. She finally believed him lol. Thanks Dolly for all your decades of song and entertainment. I know Leslie is still a big fan watching from above.

    As I'm watching Dolly on stage is so cool it reminds me when I was in Tennessee when I was little when I used to clog that's what country people do up there by the way and it's cool that is the same time I like the way she's singing on stage is awesome 👍 dolly is amazing love always Melissa
