Diamonds & Rhinestones - The Greatest Hits Collection
Dolly Parton
Diamonds & Rhinestones: The Greatest Hits Collection is a 2022, 23-track career anthology spanning Dolly Parton’s recordings from 1971 to 2020. It opens with a sequence of her most recognizable songs—“9 to 5,” “Jolene,” “Here You Come Again,” “Islands in the Stream” with Kenny Rogers, “I Will Always Love You,” and “Coat of Many Colors”—then moves through the country, pop-country, roots, and collaborative recordings that demonstrate the unusual breadth of her catalog. Rather than focusing only on her earliest classics, it presents Parton’s work as a continuing career, pairing foundational hits with later recordings such as “Better Get to Livin’,” “Red Shoes,” “Together You & I,” and “When Life Is Good Again.”
The collection also stresses Parton’s versatility and musical relationships. Alongside solo recordings including “My Tennessee Mountain Home,” “The Bargain Store,” “Love Is Like a Butterfly,” “Heartbreaker,” “The Seeker,” and “Tennessee Homesick Blues,” it includes “Real Love” with Kenny Rogers, “Silver Threads and Golden Needles” with Loretta Lynn and Tammy Wynette, and Galantis’s “Faith,” featuring Parton and Mr. Probz. The result is an accessible but substantial portrait of Parton as an Appalachian storyteller, country-pop crossover star, songwriter, and collaborator whose music remained active and adaptable across five decades.
