Dolly Parton & White To Team Up On New Album?
White Stripes Star Jack White is set to give another country music icon a cool career boost - he's in talks to produce DOLLY PARTON's next record.
The rocker, who previously produced Loretta Lynn's acclaimed 2004 album Van Lear Rose, has reportedly approached Parton with a view to working with the I Will Always Love You hitmaker on her next release.
The country queen tells Spinner.com, "I've thought about doing it... He (White) seems to be a fan but who knows. You never know what I might do.
"Every now and then I get offered those things, and I know if and when the time is right. I'm certainly not opposed to doing that. I usually have a set notion of where I'm headed with a certain project and what I want to get out of it. But Lord only knows what I might do when I get a chance to sit down and think about it."
