Nashville, TN (Top40 Charts/ Webster & Associates) Is the third time a charm for Kenny Rogers & Dolly Parton ?

Kenny Rogers , the newest member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, and recent recipient of the Willie Nelson Lifetime Achievement Award at this year's CMA Awards had this to say about the nomination: "I'm excited and very flattered about this opportunity and am convinced I should work with Dolly more often if we're getting these kinds of results," remarked Rogers.

I am also very proud to hear that 'Jolene' made the Grammy's Hall of Fame. Thank you everyone!"
