"Trio" was a 1987 album featuring Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris and Linda Ronstadt.

History

Longtime friends and admirers of one another, Parton, Ronstadt and Harris first attempted to record an album together in the mid-1970s, but scheduling conflicts and other difficulties (including the fact that the three women all recorded for different record labels) prevented its release. Some of the fruits of those aborted 1970s recording sessions did make it onto the women's respective solo recordings. "Mister Sandman" appeared on Emmylou's album Evangeline and Dolly's "My Blue Tears" was included on Linda's album Get Closer. (Parton and Ronstadt also recorded a version of the traditional ballad "I Never Will Marry", which appeared on Ronstadt's 1977 "Simple Dreams" album, though that was likely recorded separately from these sessions.)

Finally a colloboration effort went to full fruition, being produced by George Massenburg. When "Trio" was finally released in early 1987, it spawned four hit country singles -- including the country #1 remake of Phil Spector's 1958 hit by the Teddy Bears, "To Know Him is to Love Him" -- and reached number 1 on the U.S. country album charts, and number 6 on the U.S. pop album charts. It won Grammy Awards for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal and Best Country Collaboration with Vocals. (It was also nominated for Album of the Year.)

"Palms of Victory," another track from the aborted 1970s sessions was included on the 2007 Emmylou Harris boxset .
