Dolly Parton has teamed up with some big-name rockers for her upcoming "Rockstar" album, and we are now getting another taste of what's to come.
The Rock & Roll Hall of Famer released two new collaborations from the album on Friday, including her cover of Heart's "Magic Man (Carl Version)." The track features Heart's Ann Wilson and special guest Howard Leese, a former member of the group.

"I was so happy that Ann Wilson agreed to sing it with me. Nobody can out-sing Ann, but I gave it my darndest, and we added a few lines that were not in the original."
Parton also released the original track "Bygones," featuring Judas Priest's Rob Halford, whom she met when they were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame together in 2022. It also features Mötley Crüe's Nikki Sixx and John 5.
