Fox News reports on the story:
Country superstar Dolly Parton released the double CD “An Evening With Dolly” this week, a record made from two live performances she did in London in July, 2008.
Fox411 Country has the exclusive video of Parton singing “I Will Always Love You,” the song made famous worldwide by Whitney Houston. It also became the last song played at Houston’s funeral after she died earlier this year.
