Dolly Parton has been preparing to unveil her newest album, titled Rockstar, this year. The album is an exciting collection of cover songs, and it boasts an impressive lineup of guest artists.

Dolly Parton has already released a music video for her versions of Queen's iconic tracks, We Are The Champions and We Will Rock You.

Now, she has dropped her latest single, a rendition of The Beatles' classic Let It Be, which features the esteemed presence of Sir Paul McCartney and Sir Ringo Starr, the two surviving members of the legendary Fab Four.

As if that wasn't already remarkable, the song also includes contributions from Mick Fleetwood and Peter Frampton, both of whom make appearances on this 1970 classic written by Paul McCartney himself.

Dolly Parton, the iconic figure in country music, has expressed her immense excitement for fans to listen to this song as well as the upcoming tracks on the album. One of these tracks holds special significance as it is a live concert favorite about Elvis, which has never been officially recorded until now.

Dolly shared: “I’m so excited to finally present my first Rock and Roll album Rockstar.

“I am very honored and privileged to have worked with some of the greatest iconic singers and musicians of all time and to be able to sing all the iconic songs throughout the album was a joy beyond measure. I hope everybody enjoys the album as much as I’ve enjoyed putting it together!”
