Jim Colyer Band is a free-wheeling, ever-changing thing. Members come and go. The one constant is my catalog of songs. I do some of the lead vocals but employ females as I write lots of girl songs.

Story behind the song
I was walking through Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas. I kept seeing Dolly Parton's image in my mind. The song is about her.
Lyrics
She packs them in every night To watch her sing and dance Once you've laid eyes on her You haven't got a chance She's got you in her spell As she strums her guitar She's got the Makings Of A Star She's played in Las Vegas Nashville and Hollywood Everyone who's seen her Says she's mighty good Everyone's agreed This girl's going far She's got the Makings Of A Star But I remember when this star Was just a hometown kid Starry-eyed and dreaming glory Playing guitar on her bed And I remember when she told me She could never stop Fame was all that really mattered And she's get to the top So once more she's out on stage Performing in her show Responding to applause and people That's what makes her go She's a mystery to us But she knows who we are She's got the Makings Of A Star She's got the Makings Of A Star She's got the Makings Of A Star Jim Colyer ASCAP
