    When I was a drinker, moonshine and George Jones were like peanut butter and jelly. God bless you, possum.

    Visiting with a friend tonight who's dad traveled and played in the band for all the greats in the late 60s and 70s. He called my friend today to let him know about his passing. Mentioned that in 1975, he and everyone who know Jones thought he wouldn't live another 12 months, let alone 38 years.

    I always loved Jones music.

    Who's going to fill their shoes was one of the earliest music videos I remember.

    I don't think anyone can fill his shoes.

    Local station has played some of his stuff I've never heard before, George could rock some gospel music.
