Loretta Lynn, Tammy Wynette, and Dolly Parton—three women who rose from poverty to become country music’s greatest icons, not only for their talent but also for their timeless class. Between their flowing hair and soulful voices, they defined the golden age of country music, delivering the timeless tunes “Silver Threads and Golden Needles.” and “I Still Believe In You” BY Vince Gill on the big stage—Now, with Loretta and Tammy gone, only Dolly Parton remains—an upholder of country music’s spirit, the way Betty White was a comedy legend. It’s heartbreaking to see America change and a once-vibrant music fade. Rest in peace, country queens—your legacy will live on forever.

Loretta Lynn, Tammy Wynette, and Dolly Parton—three women who rose from poverty to become country music’s greatest icons, not only because of their talent but also because of their timeless style. With their flowing hair and soulful voices, they defined the golden age of country music, delivering timeless tunes like “Silver Threads and Golden Needles,” which they performed together on their 1993 album “Honky Tonk Angels,” and their version was nominated for a Grammy for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals.
