Country Legends to Release ‘The Complete Trio Collection’
Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris are together again. Having released Trio in 1987 and Trio II in 1999, nearly two decades later the singers are set to release a newly remastered three-CD collection that includes the three singers' previous two albums, as well as unreleased music from their recording sessions.
Both Trio and Trio II have been newly remastered for a three-CD collection filled with rare and unreleased music. Produced by Harris, The Complete Trio Collection will be available on Sept. 9. Additionally, Trio II will be released on vinyl for the first time.
Trio sold more than 4 million copies, won two Grammy Awards and topped Billboard's Country Album chart for five consecutive weeks. Trio II followed over a decade later and won a Grammy Award, as well as peaking inside the Top 5 of the Country Album chart.
