Who is singing it? Some commenter on YouTube said it was just a 45 slowed down (Dolly Parton), but I don't think so. Someone else wrote "Ron Pail" but I can't find anything on that person.

(8,830 posts)That's neat - I remember slowing a 45 down to 33 and it never sounded like that!
It sounds fabulous.

(222 posts)Dolly's version is the best, but the White Stripes used to perform a pretty good version too. It's been covered by tons of artists.

(27,670 posts)Back in the day, Jolene was a bread and butter song that a duo I was in did almost every night for many years in honkytonks in the rural west. You just can't go wrong playing Jolene in country bars in the rural west, everybody loves it.
I never got tired of playing it, and still love hearing it to this day. It is on my mp3 player's favorites list, and every time I hear it, it still makes me smile.

BTW, which part of the rural west?

Also played in rock bands that covered a lot more ground.
What do you call a rock musician who plays country music?
Employed.
