Van Lear Rose is a Grammy Award-winning album by Loretta Lynn, released in 2004 and produced by Jack White, of The White Stripes and The Raconteurs. The album was initially intended as a musical experiment, blending the styles of country singer-songwriter Lynn and producer White, who wrote one track, sings a duet with Lynn, and performs on the whole album as a musician. At the time of the album's release, Lynn was 69 and White was 28. The title refers to Lynn's origins as the daughter of a miner working the Van Lear coal mines. The album peaked at number two on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart and at number 24 on the Billboard 200, the most successful crossover music album of Lynn's 45-year career. At the Grammy Awards of 2005, Lynn was nominated for five awards and won two: Best Country Album and Best Country Collaboration with Vocals for her duet with White, "Portland, Oregon". Two of her other nominations were for Best Country Song: "Portland, Oregon" and "Miss Being Mrs." "Miss Being Mrs." was also nominated for Best Female Country Vocal Performance. The song Portland, Oregon was listed as the 305th best song of the 2000s by pitchfork media. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
