Dolly Parton released Jolene in February 1974, her thirteenth solo studio album. The title track made her a country star twice over: it hit number one on the country charts and crossed over to pop audiences in both the U.S. and U.K. The story at its center, a housewife pleading with a beautiful woman to leave her husband alone, became one of the most recognizable narratives in American music.
An encapsulated pressing gives a collector something a standard copy cannot: a record that has never been handled, never been shelved, and never been exposed to decades of ambient wear. The pressing is frozen at its best, the way it left the source.
