Country singer Loretta Lynn said she had never met Elvis Presley but had talked to him about collaborating on a music project. They had planned to start working together in early September 1977.

 

Presley died three weeks earlier, on Aug. 16.

 

“We were ready to do it. I was on the road when he passed away,” she said.

 

Lynn recalled her last telephone conversation with Presley.

 

“He was just a plain old country boy, as country as I am, and that’s pretty bad,” she said, laughing.

 

Would be interesting to know what the project entailed.
