Dolly Parton's long-awaited first rock album, Rockstar, has a release date: Nov. 17.

The sprawling 30-track album features nine original tracks and 21 rock anthems, including "Free Bird," "Purple Rain" and "We Are the Champions."
Sting joins on The Police's 1983 hit "Every Breath You Take," while JOAN JETT AND THE BLACKHEARTS are on the 1988 hit "I Hate Myself for Loving You." Stapleton and Parton will offer up the Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band classic "Night Moves," while "Let It Be" will feature Parton with Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Peter Frampton and Mick Fleetwood.
Meanwhile, the cover art features strong '80s vibes, with Parton sitting on a motorcycle, holding a black guitar and clad in a black, studded-leather outfit slightly reminiscent of the one she wore during the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony.

I hope everybody enjoys the album as much as I've enjoyed putting it together!"
