Critic Reviews
Show All-
Rolling Stone
Album proves the 76-year-old legend still has a classic late-era record in her, whenever she chooses to make it.

NME
a fun, easy-going romp with lashings of charm.

Saving Country Music
Run, Rose, Run deserves to be graded on a curve, because again, it’s meant as a complement to a novel, not a standalone feature. But even without running opinions through the love we all have in our hearts for anything and everything Dolly Parton, Run, Rose, Run does include some quality songs and collaborations not to be overlooked, even if it doesn’t necessarily inspire you to run out and get a copy of the novel, and bury your nose in it post haste.

AllMusic
Perhaps cloaking her personal experiences in the guise of a fictional narrative allowed Parton to allude to her past in this fashion, but no matter the inspiration, these moments are the grace notes that help make Run, Rose, Run a satisfying listen on its own terms.
-
Clash Magazine
Effervescent, exuberant, wry, but always appealing, ‘Run Rose Run’ displays Dolly’s evergreen storytelling prowess and is a vibrant and compelling body of work.

The Times
this is what a tough cookie with a heart of gold sounds like.

Evening Standard
Money-spinner still comes up smelling of roses.

The Arts Desk
The music’s a hot mix of bluegrass and acoustic, down-home country, and her voice rubs that far-reaching soprano with the gravel of experience.
