Overview:
Blue Smoke the 42nd studio album by American country entertainer Dolly Parton. The album was released in Australia and New Zealand on January 31, 2014, in North America on May 13, 2014, in Ireland on June 6, 2014, and in Europe on June 9, 2014. Parton mentioned working on a new album in July 2013. In December 2013, Parton announced that the album would be released through a partnership between Parton's Dolly Records and Sony Masterworks.

Blue Smoke features a duet with Kenny Rogers on "You Can't Make Old Friends," which was originally released on his 2013 album of the same name. The song debuted on the Billboard Country Airplay chart in December 2013 and reached a peak of number 57, becoming Parton's first chart entry since "Jesus and Gravity" peaked at number 56 in 2008. The album also includes a new recording of "From Here to the Moon and Back" with Willie Nelson, which was also on Nelson's 2013 album, To All the Girls.... Parton previously recorded and performed the song with Kris Kristofferson in Joyful Noise, and it was featured on the movie's soundtrack release. Blue Smoke also includes covers of Bob Dylan's "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right" and Bon Jovi's "Lay Your Hands on Me."

A deluxe edition with four bonus tracks — three new songs plus a re-recording of "Early Morning Breeze," which first appeared on Parton's 1971 album, Coat of Many Colors — was made available exclusively at Walmart.

In the UK, a special version of the album, titled Blue Smoke - The Best Of, will be released on June 9, 2014 in conjunction with the European leg of the Blue Smoke World Tour. It features the standard album, plus a bonus disc with 20 of Parton's greatest hits, most of which feature in the tour setlist.
