Last week, Dolly Parton finally released her highly-anticipated rock album titled "Rockstar" and it featured some of the biggest artists in the music industry, including Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney of the Beatles.
More recently, the musician opened up how the collaboration started and how she was able to secure them to be one of the guests in her album, particularly in the song "Let It Be."
The country legend recently spoke in an interview with NPR where she revealed that everything began with a love note.
"So I just sent them a love note through their managers, and I just said what I was doing," she explained.
The musician further elaborated that she told the two that she didn't want to put them on the spot, but she expressed her desires of them doing a collaboration with her. Parton then left her number for them to reach out to her.
"All the people I reached out to said, yes, we'd love to, and I was very honored and very proud and very humbled by that," she added. (via Loudwire)
