I last saw him perform at the Rutland fair in Vermont a few years before he passed and he still had it going on. I almost forgot to mention that Pam Tillis opened for him and after her show she stayed and signed autographs until the line was finished .

My mother and I saw him in concert and full on sobbed over "He stopped loving her today!" I've seen some insane concerts and never had a reaction like that. He made you feel his music

I almost forgot my sister who's a news anchor was supposed to interview him but he no showed twice. She got him on the 3rd try and said he was incredibly charming

George jones is a hell of a singer and will live on forever in my heart I'm 21 and my dad introduced me to George jones

RIP George Jones

I pray he is doing well

He's my number one guy. Keep fighting. AA MEN

God bless you sir.

You k ow my son took withcharlie rich lisyei.g to him as I played his lp with my cou try date day he was like 12 lol

Haha 😂

Me under my breath after driving off & lookin in my rear views:…outlaw

@@terricklee6268 He had a blood alcohol level of 0.21 so it was more than one glass of wine.

@@lyricberlin Maybe it was a case of wine. LOLOL

One of the greatest

Listen to Dale Watson song called Jonsin for Jones.

100% love the possum

Also play Alan Jackson "Playin Possum"

The best

No. He will not. He cheated on his wife with a married woman. Horrible individual. Both of them she had two young daughters.

Amazing voice I agree.

@@JennaP363 has daddy issues . Nobody cept you and women like you whom caused your men to get their needs elsewhere will agree 👍

@@JennaP363 ok and?

@@JennaP363so did Alan Jackson. People change.

Marc, you read my mind. I was combing the comments looking for a mention about Hank Jr’s fall.

@@acp865 I’m really surprised that it wasn’t mentioned. After that fall he had to learn so much over again and it changed his voice along with his look and out look on his music. And by doing that it changed country music.

I preferred his earlier stuff actually. Like Cajon Baby, Eleven Roses, Heaven Cant Be Found, Hank.

@@marcdavis7875 it was in part 2

Agreed..and Tammy Wynettes Stand by your man

Absolutely

Nah Dolly Parton

Reba

Yes Loretta will always be the queen of country music

Hot take. I like patsy. I appreciate that dolly is the only thing all of the USA can agree to like though

Whose gonna fill their shoes... whose gonna walk that tall... Whose gonna play the Opry, And the Wabash Cannon Ball... (My #1 favorite George Jones song).

Was stringbean selling it in the joint too??? Any o. s person knows why men wore pants low like that !! Ur selling bootie, check it out with some old timers ,

Just discovered Stringbean. He kills me❤😅

Greatest female CW artist Virginia PATTERSON HENSLEY.

Texas is notorious for violating all your rights not just civil rights. They do it and get by with it and there’s nothing you can do about it. Doesn’t matter how far up you go they are protected.

So do I.

Everyone of us is human, We make mistakes. Believe me I really have made some doozies, We all deserve A second chance.

He’s a wonderful person. I visited with him in Reno, NV In 2009 & he was just a regular guy with no frills.

Is he gay? I wonder

Three guesses who made that statement

Ever been around somebody who takes an ambian and doesn't go to sleep? It's hell. He probably drank more but doesn't remember.

All depends on the size of the glass!

@@wullymc1 I kill a bottle of cabbie in 2 1/2 glasses! Lol

Lpppppppppppppplpplplpplplllllllllllllpllllp

Actually Willie wrote for Patsy Kline

Willie goes back to the 50s

Just not so.

I can remember the first time I met someone from AA that didn't have a southern drawl, I was like, what the hell?

Camden tn and it a hike to get to the spot

Oh wow! Thanks for your service!

You mean Lynyrd Skynyrd ?

But what if they ever catch him doing known as Neil and Bob

@@russellcrawford6274 I don't believe that at all

I use to be a bartender in this dive bar years ago . This man who came in daily who was well in his 70's. I don't know how Randy Travis came up , maybe a song was playing. He talked about his distain for him. I questioned why. He said that Randy use to bag groceries for him in the small grocery store that he owned and Randy stole from him.

@@cruellad407 could be true who knows but I don't care still love his music its not my place to judge his past u know

@Chris Bennett I don't care about his past either , I love his music. I thought it was funny how just he didn't stop at Randy Travis worked for me when he was young.

I live in the town where stringbean is from we have a bluegrass festival every June round his birthday

Stringbean was not a very smart man. His ignorance cost him his life. From Ms. Harper Stacey.

Never could stand to hear him sing. But that's just my opinion

@@erichoward1974 each to his own! George sang about life & love. Mostly lost love but you felt every word! He was one of the best! Gerorge Strait rules the roost now! Great singer & so damn good looking! Never will anyone top this cowboy! All the greats are born & raised Texas!

Travis is /was great. One of my favorites.

Take a listen to a very underrated Ricky Van Shelton. One of the purist, incredible voices in country music during the 80's.

@@erichoward1974 I prefer Vern Gosdin.

He was drunk. Needs to own it and move forward. No matter what his publicists say. Dude, OWN IT.

am i trippin or isn’t jerry lee like the worst human being ever not named hitler or putin

What made Milwaukee famous...

These guys are all hardcore onstage and in real life no wonder gg allin loved country music lol

Merle did impersonations of his contemporaries better than anyone. Close your eyes and they were right there with the Hag. EXCELLENT ENTERTAINER, FINE SINGER.

Merle should have been in the top 5.

That's 'Charley'.

That's my last name too.

He Stopped Loving Her Today. Might make a good country song.

@@jray5363 : Did he really?

I’ve always thought his story would make a good movie.

@@stephenhopkins9541 I couldn't agree more.

@@daylaneedels-whitworth1575 he's my favorite

Much appreciated bubba! 🙏

@ashley1994 if you only knew the history behind the necklace.

@@CountryCast history doesn’t look good on orange and white. Roll Tide! Haha. Nah, I’m playing, kinda…Congrats!

Randy was awesome, but c'mon. Just say you were wasted and move on. Lawyers suck!

he lied...he said he had 1 drink and his blood alcohol level was 0.21. AS someone that has lost a loved one to a pos drunk driver, Travis got off light.

I agree, and I like the story about he and grandpa Jones as neighbors were across the valley from each other used to wake each other up hollering, coffee ready and what not, they were good friends..

Stringbean should have kept his mouth shut about his financial business and he should have moved to a safer community. From Ms. Harper Stacey.

💡

@@CountryCast when George Jones thought that he was a duck and old man and they would fight with each other, I have heard George and Nancy talk about this, plus the lawn mower stuff with George. Tracy Lawrence's troubles, David Allan Coe having a tiger on his bus! Heard Johnny Van Zandt talking about that

Tammy wynette lied about her kidnap attempt. From Ms. Harper Stacey.

Same. When I was a teenager my ‘ole buddies mom used to get up randomly in the middle of the night and cook us food. Took us to Walmart once at like 2am…..we got ice cream. She took one every night. lol

yeah, that's scary stuff. you could walk into traffic or burn down the house and not even realize what you're doing.

@@swampdonkey4919 hey you're so right A friend of mine that was on that Ambien done some crazy stuff and had no clue that she done it, one night she got up and picked up a teddy bear that belong to her granddaughter building front of a mirror and started cussing it I'm telling you it was one scary sight the things I've seen there's no way I would touch that stuff

@@rodneystephens8859 I was prescribed the stuff in my early 20s. My dad, stepmother, and college dorm mates have a lot of stories about me, let me tell you. But at least nobody got hurt.

My sister in law got up took a bath & shaved one leg after taking Ambien. Next day she was so confused how her leg got shaved. On the show Rescue Me a Fireman went shopping & insulted people after taking one. It was really funny.

Funniest part was he had the blade engaged so was kicking up rocks flying all over the road all the way to liquor store and back.😂

Yes!!!

One truth nobody cares about is that, unlike the others on this video, Charlie Rich never did anything in his life that got him arrested, or there's no record of that; but yet, there is so much anger directed at him & criticism of "every aspect" of his life. It shows the unfairness and hypocrisy that's going on everywhere nowadays, and the total unwillingness or inability to keep things in perspective. There have never been accounts of anything (like his failure to pay taxes or pay his band or 'actual' violence toward anyone) concerning Charlie Rich; unlike some accounts of John Denver's behavior. But that just proves how some people are shown no mercy for any and every misstep or act of misjudgment, prompting merciless outrage by certain individuals, continuing on literally for years after they pass away; whereas, others are given a pass and never criticized no matter what they do in life. It's as simple as that. And anyone who can't admit that's the truth must be living in an altered reality. A good example is what's going on right now in our political arena. Enough said. Another was the nationwide televised address in which Nancy Pelosi busily tore up all the pages in a speech as it was being delivered by the President, & behind HIS back, with no national outcry or even criticism. I think everyone needs to stop the selective outrage, or we'll always be called a nation of hypocrites behind all OUR backs. Not much justice in much that's happening here these days. AND: the ongoing attacks on Charlie Rich exactly exemplify our flagrant hypocrisy as a nation, albeit in a microcosm. He didn't set fire to the award; he lit the side of a presumably hand-written little scrap of paper. Put it in perspective, people.

Johnny Rodriguez ??

He was mad at Vernon because Vernon wouldn't let him in. Elvis called Jerry Lee crying upset that he couldn't get away and Jerry said he would come get him and they would go out together like the old times. When Jerry showed up at the gate Vernon refused to let him in to see Elvis. So Jerry yelled that he knew Elvis before he was a big star and he was going to go see his friend. He slammed his car into the gates and the police showed up arresting him. Was a gun but it was on the dash of the car. They always had guns. He only shot his bass player but he just winged him lol.

@@koDaffi Funny 😁. Lol. Thanks for the info.

@@koDaffi Apparently it was like 4a.m when Jerry got to Graceland as he had to drive a couple hours to get there.

I don’t think it was particularly for the hat, it was bc he was about to clobber him with a beer bottle!!

Part documents the incident

Johnny paycheck was my causing some of his songs was just ok to me

@@wilmaperry4045 as a

Yup

Shit, I still have eight tracks in mine.
