Episode Details

Dolly Parton’s hauntingly beautiful bluegrass take on Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven” is resurfacing, reigniting admiration for her fearless artistry. Originally released in 2002 with blessing from Robert Plant and Jimmy Page, the version she performed live on tour—captured on her Live and Well DVD—is now going viral. Her powerful vocals reimagine the rock classic with a country soul, while also honoring her late husband Carl Dean, who reportedly disliked the cover. And it’s not the first time Dolly’s reimagined the song—last year, she dropped a full-on rock version featuring Lizzo on flute, proving she’s never afraid to own a legend.
