Ronstadt and Harris had wanted to meet Parton after having recorded some of her songs. But there had been managerial problems as well as scheduling conflicts and the album was still an on/off project. They’d been meeting and recording in full-day sessions that had been closed to the press. There was much talk in Los Angeles about the top-secret album Dolly and Emmylou and Linda Ronstadt were working on. Although her schedule was as tight as her clothes, Dolly accepted without hesitation. Emmylou said there were some people she wanted Dolly to meet. On Thursday, she’d been invited to her friend Emmylou Harris’s house. Dolly was rehearsing for a TV special and wasn’t sure if she’d be through in time to run over with a friend to the North Hollywood club. And she was wondering if there was any chance she might lose. But she knew if she attended, she would also enter. In Los Angeles, however, it might be different. She’d been to some others in different parts of the country and she’d been mostly disappointed. Two days before the Palomino club in Los Angeles sponsored its first Dolly Parton Look-Alike Contest, Dolly Parton was wondering whether or not she should attend.
