Dolly Parton - Smoky Mountain Memories

Oh, the wonderful Dolly Parton. This song is from a live album she recorded called "Heartsongs". Delightful album, filled with lots of her chestnuts (no pun intended). The song was originally titled "Appalachian Memories", but she changed the title to "Smoky Mountain Memories". One of her best ever.

I can relate to this song. My parent's left eastern ky for Indiana in 1970 for the Northern promise. Bad mistake. My dad never stopped missing his home. and i miss it

You did a wonderful job here, well done. It is a fantastic song and really should have been a world wide hit. In reality, people only know a tiny percentage of Dolly Parton's music and songs. I have this album too and in it like in so many of her albums are some amazing songs. Keep up the good work, it's people like you who keep the flame buring.. Keep an eye out around october, True Blue (also in this album) is coming out in duet, I.Boulay (French.Canada) et Dolly (album called Grand Espaces )

@yu3p2x1 Thanks for the kind words. I've made a lot of YouTube videos and almost all of them are about the imagery. This song was very easy to make a video for since Dolly always does a great job of painting wonderful mental images.
