Real Love

Real Love was a 1985 Dolly Parton album. It was her 28th album. The album was produced by David Malloy (best known for his work with Eddie Rabbitt), and was Parton's last new album for RCA, her label for the previous eighteen years. The album included the #1 country singles "Real Love" (a duet with Kenny Rogers that also reached #91 on the U.S. pop charts) and "Think About Love", as well as the #3 country single "Don't Call it Love" and the top twenty #17 country single "Tie Our Love (In a Double Knot)", as well as a cover of Nanci Griffith's "Once in a Very Blue Moon".

　　As part of Parton's 2007 European tour, the album was re-released by BMG Germany (a division of Sony/BMG) in a two-fer CD. It was paired with 1983's Burlap & Satin.

　　Real Love was the second Dolly Parton solo album to be issued on CD at the time of its release.

1）虽然媒体常喜欢开桃莉芭顿(Dolly Parton)身材的玩笑 (身高152cm , 三围44/19/?,胸部简直像两颗躲避球! 记得以前看过报导 医生建议减胸到38吋 否则她过细的腰围会支撑不住 但桃莉就是不肯 因为她认为"自然就是美") 。。。

2）但她却是公认的乡村第一才女，其创作才华倍受同业肯定，从70年代后期开始，已是美国乡村天后级的桃莉开始制作自己的专辑，乐风也逐渐往主流市场靠近。 1977年的〔Here You Come Again〕大碟销售百万，成为芭顿第一张白金唱片，专辑同名单曲也拿下美国流行榜＃3 成为她首支百万金曲。

3）往后桃莉便继续跨界于Country/Pop之间。1985年3月 39岁的桃莉发行第28张录音室专辑〔Real Love〕 同名单曲成为她第19首乡村榜冠军、三单[Think About Love]为第20首(她共有25首Country NO.1) 。这是芭顿跟RCA唱片合约最后一张大碟，虽然成绩不错 但公司仍没跟她续约，之后便转往哥伦比亚唱片了。
