The late blues and soul singer Denise LaSalle, who was born in rural Mississippi, told me that the adults in her family used to scare the kids with stories of a spooky character named "George Eyebuster" -- if the children had been bad that year, he'd come on Christmas instead of Santa Claus. I guess he was Scratch Eyes' Mississippi cousin!

BEAUTIFUL!!! 🙏♥️💋💐⚘💜🎶🌷🎼🌹👍🙂

UTUBE JUST IN TIME BY JOHN BAVAS

Brings back childhood memories. Daddy would play the album. We loved it. Thanks for posting.

My mom had this live album on an 8-track.

This is my all-time favorite Dolly song. I just wish the quality was better. 😊

do you happen to have the rest of this special? i’ve been looking for it everywhere! someone had posted it before but unfortunately got deleted :(

I'm glad to SEE this, but the QUALITY! I can barely HEAR it!

Great video footage, thanks for sharing. We're going to see Carol Burnett at the Ryman auditorium next month. It would be great if she brought out Dolly Parton as a special guest

Love these 2 together! They are so good!

0:31 people are laughing because you can see how big Dolly's chest is in comparison to Carole's.

This is so wonderful!That opening silhouette was hilarious.Dolly looks so incredible in white,like an angel.I feel bad for anyone sharing a stage with her it's hard to focus on anything else.Two amazingly talented women.

My mom used to love this special episode. Does anyone know where the whole thing is posted? Also the Christmas one that had Burl Ives? If anyone can share these in their entirety, please do. Thanks for any help.

she sounds good

Sing Dolly Parton.. Oh sing!

I forgot about bloody bones until this!

country girl64 sorry that this was not video taped this would have been awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

<3

is this on a DVD somewhere!>???

is this on any of the DVD's ?

Dolly Parton always was, still is and always will be my # 1 wife. Oops i mean # 1 in my life..

I had this album way back when it was released. It was very well produced and showcased Dolly's excellent unique vocals as well as her writing. Thanks for posting. Too bad a taped version of this does not exist.

If this was 1978 then she was only 32 years so yes she was rather very young here

Dolly Parton was born to be a superstar she was not nobody's girl singer she had to be let loose

Dolly is country but she has been with the biggest stars in Hollywood but when she was with Carol it won my heart 2 of the biggest legends together!!..Love them both!

The first 20 seconds of this video is a sad reminder that 85% of that audience is now dead.

my grandma used to sing this to me when i was younger....brings back all the memories

I just have to stop the video in the middle not b/c I don't like this, on the contrary, there's something so wonderful, blessed, and special about Dolly Parton's voice that EVERY time I hear her sing I get goosebumps in the back of my necks and I almost want to cry! Am I the only one that feels this way? She's absolutely amazing and her voice...that voice is like an angel is breathing through her vocal cords. I guess it doesn't hurt that my mother raised me on her music as well as Kenny Rogers:)

what year was this filmed?

That was really funny

A true treasure!!

BRILLIANT... singers have NO skills like this anymore... Dolly and Barbara Mandrell were the LAST real true talent in country music,, aside from Reba,, no one compares w/ comedy talent, singing talent, and musical talent than Dolly and Barbara..... and Carol, the QUEEN QUEEN QUEEN of funny

Two legends together !! WHAT A GIFT!!! I love them so much they are ture living legends!!

@LoveFromShinola This was about 1980.

you cant understand what the heck they are saying

WOW..WOW..WOW TOW OF THE BEST AND GREATEST AND THE AUDIENCE SHOWED THEIR RESPECT OH SO FITTING.

I had no idea they'd ever performed together. What a treat! Two of my favorite entertainers, together. And who would ever have thought to put them on stage together? A sheer stroke of genius!

this was filmed at dolly wood i cant tell by the church

Dolly is a legendary song writer!

allibundy7 - Dolly was a regular on the Porter Wagoner show.

I was just thinking they should move the pedestals up and they did!

The part where Dolly's singing by herself (without an audience) is at the Ryman Auditorium (original home of the Grand Ol' Opry), while the rest of the special was filmed in the new Opry. At the time this was filmed (1978), the Ryman had remained mostly vacant, since the Opry had moved to the new building in 1974. The Ryman would remain shuttered until the early '90s, when Emmylou Harris recorded her live AT THE RYMAN album there, and then it was restored and reopened as a concert hall.

This was an hour long special and in my opinion the best performance was when they did the "Love" segment. It was a perfomance where they sing all songs it seems like ever written with the word love in it.

sweet.

I had the PRIVILEGE of meeting Carol when was a waiter at the "Bistro Garden" in B.H. WAY back in 1990....(Never mind, don't ask my age....LOL). My grandma and I used to watch her every Sat night. We laughed until we almost peed. The point? When I told Carol that these were some of the most precious memories of my childhood, she burst into tears and said that's why she did the show. We talked more and I can honestly say, she was the most genuinely nice person I've ever met....famous or not.

Carol and Dolly are both true ladies. Funny and talented but classy and true. God bless them both! :-)

"Well I sure sound grand Miss Burnett"

This is funny.

The part with just Dolly was recorded seperately. The parts with Carol were performed live.

"You're full of bologna Ms. Parton!" "We're both full of bull, Ms. Burnett!" Sounds so typical Dolly!!
