Trio - Tower Record´s interview 1987 in Nashville
In 1987 Trio, E,mylu Harris, Dolly Parton and Linda Ronstadt released their album Trio. They did a few promotion interviews in Nashville for the album Release.
Longtime friends and admirers of one another, Parton, Harris and Ronstadt first recorded a Trio album together in 1978 produced by Emmylous producer and Husband Brian Ahern, but scheduling conflicts and other difficulties (including the fact that the three women all recorded for different record labels) prevented its release.
Some of the fruits of those aborted 1970s recording sessions did make it onto the women's respective solo albums. “Mr. Sandman" and "Evangeline" appeared on Harris' album Evangeline and Parton's "My Blue Tears" was included on Ronstadt's 1982 album Get Closer. Rodney Crowell's "Even Cowgirls Get the Blues" was on Harris' Blue Kentucky Girl album. "Palms of Victory," another track from the aborted 1970s sessions, was included on the Harris' 2007 box set Songbird: Rare Tracks and Forgotten Gems.
Parton and Ronstadt also recorded a version of the traditional ballad "I Never Will Marry", which appeared on Ronstadt's 1977 Simple Dreams album, though that was recorded separately from these sessions, as was Ronstadt's cover of Hank Williams' "I Can't Help It (If I'm Still in Love with You)", from Heart Like a Wheel, on which she was joined by Harris. During this time, Ronstadt and Harris also covered a number of Parton's compositions — Harris covered "Coat of Many Colors" and "To Daddy", and Ronstadt recorded "I Will Always Love You"—for inclusion on their various solo albums during the mid- to late-1970s. Parton, in turn, covered Harris' "Boulder to Birmingham", including it on her 1976 album, All I Can Do.
Finally a collaboration effort came to fruition, being produced by George Massenburg. When Trio was released in March 1987, it spawned four hit singles–including a remake of Phil Spector's 1958 hit by the Teddy Bears, "To Know Him Is to Love Him".
Billboard published a review in the issue dated March 14, 1987, which said, "If the "new traditionalists" in country music still have a body of work to draw from, it's largely because these three celestial songbirds kept it alive and vibrant throughout the adulterated '70s. But the members of the trio are not resting on their reputations here; their album is stunningly beautiful on every cut. Crossover is certain and will most likely be instantaneous, fueled by Ronstadt's current ride atop the Hot 100–in a duet with James Ingram–with "Somewhere Out There"."
In the March 14, 1987 issue of Cashbox a review was published that said, "The long-awaited collaboration of three of country/pop’s greatest voices is an unqualified success. The near-perfect song selection gives the three ample room to develop subtleties and nuance that in places is heart rending (listen to "Telling Me Lies"). These three singular voices blend together in seamless harmony, floating over the sweetest country melodies and poignant understated lyrics. Augmented by an assemblage of some of the best sidemen available, including Albert Lee and M
The album peaked at No. 1 on the US Billboard Top Country Albums chart and remained there for five consecutive weeks. The album also peaked at No. 6 on the US Billboard 200 chart. In Canada the album peaked at No. 4 on the RPM Top Albums chart. The album also saw success in Sweden where it peaked at No. 29 on the Sverigetopplistan Albums Top 60 chart and in the UK where it peaked at No. 60 on the Official Charts Company UK Albums Chart.
The album's first single, "To Know Him Is to Love Him", was released in January 1987 and peaked at No. 1 on the US Billboard Hot Country Singles chart. The single also peaked at No. 1 in Canada on the RPM Country Singles chart. The second single, "Telling Me Lies", was released in May 1987[9][10] and peaked at No. 3 on the US Billboard Hot Country Singles chart, No. 35 on the US Billboard Hot Adult Contemporary chart and No. 6 in Canada on the RPM Country Singles chart. "Those Memories of You" was released as the third single in August 1987 and it peaked at No. 5 on the US Billboard Hot Country Singles chart and No. 1 in Canada on the RPM Country Singles chart. The album's fourth and final single, "Wildflowers", was released in March 1988 and peaked at No. 6 on the US Billboard Hot Country Singles chart and No. 8 in Canada on the RPM Country Singles chart. They did some promo interviews and planned to do some live shows but Dolly was busy with her Tv show that she produced that year. However they performed on the Dolly Parton show as well as the Johnny Carson show. They released two Music videos “ To Know Him Is To Love Him “ and
