    Blue Smoke explores the mainstream side of Parton, she experimented with the country sounds and she did it in the right way. So far, this is the best work of this singer.

    Blue Smoke easily hits its mark of making us look within ourselves while laughing through our tears.

    On Blue Smoke, the country legend travels many different paths and sounds only like herself.
