...Partons unlikely but appealing cover of Fine Young Cannibals She Drives Me Crazy. The bulk of the song, arranged as a fiddle-heavy pop song, hews close to the original until the finale, when it crescendos in a rollicking hoedown. It might blow your mind, but the real charmer is the albums title track. Its vintage Dolly: playing up her...
