Incredible Dolly Parton fact:

She wrote Jolene & I Will Always Love You (yeah, the one Whitney covered) in the same Jack Daniels fueled night.

Two of the greatest songs of all time, one writing session. Incredible

She said that in an interview and since back tracked. More or less they were written very close (with in days of each other). I don't remember her saying that it was fueled by Jack Daniels though.

The arrangement, playing and production of Jolene is one of the most perfect things ever wrought. Chip Young invented that guitar part on the spot.

Wayne could release a new song every day until the sun blows up and still not release all his songs
