Finally, A Record Deal

For a person as talented as Parton, it was inevitable that a record label would come knocking on her door. Her big break came after singing for Monument Records at 19 years old. However, for their vision, Parton was not the right fit. They signed Dolly to sing “bubblegum pop” as an approach to attract teens in the 60s and 70s. However, none of her songs peaked the Billboard Top 100 chart.
