Description
A rare find for country music collectors: a 100% factory-sealed, unopened original vintage vinyl copy of Dolly Parton's Greatest Hits, released by RCA Records in 1982 (Catalog # AHL1-4422). Because it is still sealed in its original tight factory shrinkwrap, the vinyl inside is guaranteed untouched, unplayed, and in pristine Mint condition.
This album captures the peak of Dolly's iconic crossover pop and country era. Features her most beloved, timeless signature tracks: "9 to 5," "Jolene," "I Will Always Love You," and "Here You Come Again."
Released in September 1982 by RCA Records, this specific compilation was engineered to celebrate Dolly Parton’s massive commercial crossover era of the late 1970s and early 1980s. While Dolly had been a powerhouse in Nashville since the late 1960s, it was the music featured on this LP that transformed her into a household name worldwide.
This pressing represents the original first-edition run of the compilation. (Just one year later, in 1983, RCA actually altered the tracklist to capitalize on her mega-hit duet with Kenny Rogers, "Islands in the Stream"). Buying this 1982 pressing ensures collectors get the original, unaltered presentation of her late-70s peak.
