Going Solo
It is certainly hard to imagine Dolly Parton as anything apart from a solo singer, though she and Wagoner actually recorded several songs together. This lasted until she decided to leave in 1974 and the label RCA Victor snapped her up right away. Her first single, “Just Because I’m A Woman,” was something of a disappointment for her. It only climbed to the 17th spot of the charts. While she came out with several solo singles during the late ‘60s, none became as successful as the ones she worked on with Wagoner.
