Best of Dolly Parton was a 1997 compilation album of Dolly Parton's early '70s work that has long been regarded by critics as the definitive representation of Parton's most influential period.

This compilation breezes through two decades of Dolly Parton’s career, covering her most radiant singles released between 1970 and 1989. It starts with "Joshua", a twangy, country-funk story about a small-town loner, and continues through the female-gaze classic "Why'd You Come In Here Lookin' Like That”—one of the most explosive tunes Nashville ever produced. In between are classics like "Here You Come Again", a melancholy lament for the powerlessness Dolly feels while lost in love, and foot-stomping working-girl anthems like “9 to 5”.
