To quote Waylon Jennings, “If we could all sing like we wanted to, we’d all sound like George Jones”. Great video!

@peterbetts858 this would have been late 80s, 88 or 89. Every year he came with Conway. Great shows. One year Loretta Lynn was with them. I was able to bring my grandmother who was born and raised in the hills of Corbin Ky. Huge Loretta Lynn fan. That's a show i'll never forget. 3 legends in Country Music. What a treat when her and Conway did the encore.

What a voice! Frank Sinatra famously called Jones "the second best singer in America." I was fortunate enough to see him twice, once with Tammy while they were married. My husband, a die-hard rocker skeptical of country, was blown away the first time he heard Jones and became an enduring fan. We saw him in Austin in the early 90s.

As a military brat we lived in the southwest as kids. My first and only job as a teen was in record stores during the late 70s-early 80s. I grew up on mostly R&B/Soul, Jazz, Funk, Blues and Gospel with just a sprinkling of country... Charlie Pride. I recall playing George Jones albums for customers while working and fell in love with his singing. He had the perfect soulful country voice that stays with you forever, and to this day he remains my favorite male country singer. Merle Haggard's in a close second. RIP Mr Jones.

Mr.Jones was the original rock star. Doing what he wanted to do and living the way he wanted too long before any of the rock Stars of his day. Most of the country singers did drugs and raised hell as much if not more than any rock Stars of their day , the just kept it quiet. I would like to think Mr Jones for all his talent and entertainment.

He made it! All that haunted him thru life he began faced and wrote in his songs. I think this was the only way he could tell all his family and friends how he felt, for them to understand why he was, the way he was. He wrote it in songs how and why he was the way he was, and finally realized what hurt he had caused both himself and ones that loved him. It’s hard to understand why you are the way you are, until you start accepting yourself and what you have done, from there you work from then to now and admit the why of your choices, explain them accept them, and apologize for them. This way he was at peace with himself and his god before he died. What he hadn’t understood prior to this, was what a wonderful person he truly was. It took a lot of years in his last marriage for his stay strong wife to finally make him see, just how truly valuable he was to his family and his fans. She succeeded in this and so did Jones. Great man all around, no one will compare.

I agree with you whole heartedly. All you have to so is listen to him sing "Choices" In the end we are all here for a purpose. We are given gifts by our maker to help others through their journey in life. If we choose. It is our choices that lead us to where we are. As the lyrics say in the song "Even if we choice not to choice then we have still made a choice."
