\n\tDolly Parton<\/a>\u2019s death<\/a> on Aug. 25 at age 80 after a quiet battle with cancer resonated around the globe. But it was especially acute in Nashville, where she lived, launched her career, and died. In a special tribute episode of Rolling Stone\u2019s Nashville Now podcast, host Joseph Hudak and Rolling Stone Senior Writer Marissa R. Moss talk about the vibe in the city, what we\u2019ve felt, and what\u2019s to come. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
