Liner Notes

With a title like this album has, you deserve your money back if the artist is not in fact a living legend. But you get no refunds on this one. Dottie West lives up to her billing. She is a phenomenon In country (music) that could only have happened in this country (U.S.A.). A Tennessee native, Dottie was the oldest of eight children in a poor farm family. The llvin’ wasn’t easy. Somehow she worked and sang her way to college, got married to Bill West, and relocated to Ohio. But Tennessee was still in her heart and voice and soon she was performing for local Ohio TV. Someone back In Nashville heard tapes of those telecasts and whattayaknow… Dottie was back in Tennessee. Her successes were fast and big. The details can be seen on the country charts and in various music magazine articles. Dottie is a vital part of the Nashville sound and scene. She’s an active recording star, an established songwriter, a radio & TV performer, a personal appearance headliner…and oh yes, a devoted wife and the mother of four. When you hear her sing the songs in this package, you’ll understand how she does It all. It’s a simple matter of voice and sincerity and personality and intelligence and energy. The stuff that legends are made of.
