Porter & Dolly was a 1980 album featuring Porter Wagoner and Dolly Parton, comprised mostly of previously unreleased material from their duet years (1967 - 74). The album was part of a settlement from legal action Wagoner took following Parton's departure from his band in 1974. Though the two have since made peace and resumed their friendship, at the time, they were reportedly not on speaking terms, and would not reunite in person, so the cover photo is actually a composite of two separate photos, edited together.

The single "Making Plans" was a top ten single on the U.S. country charts; Parton would rerecord it in 1987 with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris for their Trio album.
