Still basking in the afterglow of Wednesday’s Dolly Parton tribute? Another country-music legend gets her due in an all-star concert special, titled Tammy Wynette: Forever Yours, recorded in March at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium. This tribute, introduced by daughter Georgette from Wynette’s marriage to George Jones, features her breakout hits “Stand by Your Man” (performed by Heart‘s Ann Wilson) and “D-I-V-O-R-C-E” (KT Tunstall), with a roster including Wynonna Judd, Lorrie Morgan, Gretchen Wilson, Kimberly Perry, Patty Griffin, Debby Boone, and more.
