Loretta Lynn's compositions reflected her pride in her humble background and spoke frankly of her experiences as a woman and mother in Appalachia.
Her compositions reflected her pride in her humble background and spoke frankly of her experiences as a woman and mother in Appalachia.
Lynn already had four children before launching her career in the early 1960s, and her songs reflected her pride in her rural Kentucky background. “It was what I wanted to hear and what I knew other women wanted to hear, too,” Lynn told the AP in 2016. “I didn’t write for the men; I wrote for us women. And the men loved it, too.”
Long after her commercial peak, Lynn won two Grammys in 2005 for her album “Van Lear Rose,” which featured 13 songs she wrote, including “Portland, Oregon” about a drunken one-night stand. “Van Lear Rose” was a collaboration with rocker Jack White, who produced the album and played the guitar parts. She wrote in her autobiography that she was 13 when she got married to Oliver “Mooney” Lynn, but the AP later discovered state records that showed she was 15. Tommy Lee Jones played Mooney Lynn in the biopic.
