George battled the bottle and beat it. I’m so happy I could follow in his footsteps. I’ve been sober for 4 years now. We miss you George. We’ll meet again.
Excellent country music artist absolutely love his music ño one will ever be able to be replicate George Jones he sang with his heart and soul I truly appreciate his music. I really do miss him only wish I got to meet him he was a true country music icon and inspiration to many
There never was and never will be another like George Jones. His was a one of a kind, pure country voice. He brought folks of all ages to country music using his beautiful voice to bring us the story in each and every song he sang.
My grandfather died in 1981. My grandparents were married during the Second World War. 1943. My grandmother lived another 20 years. I asked her one time , I said grandmother, you ever thought about dating someone since grandad passed away? She looked at me with her eyes so kind and said, “son, when you have had the very best, you don’t need nobody else”. Wow, I thought to myself, Lord, please let me find that kind of love someday. He answered my prayers without a doubt.
George Jones is absolutely amazing. He is a gift to the world with all of his musical talent. With all the trials and tribulations he’s been through. He is a strong testimony for a lot of people that have walked in his paths . May God bless him and may he be happy in the arms of our loving heavenly father.
He sang from the heart and life experience. There will never be another one like him. True country music loved you possum Glad I was there for this concert. I will listen to you until the day I die. Rip George
Nobody has come close to filling his shoes!! He had it way when he was sporting that Flat Top haircut!! OMG !! Using that deep voice and then hitting those high vocals !!! And when he did He stopped loving her today !! OMG!! The part where he just talked about his friend going away. He nailed every word and made it seem like you were there at the funeral with him !! Name one country singer that can do that ?? I haven't heard one come close and the ones that tried pretty much butcherd it !!! Every one of THEM !! When he sang anyone else songs. He smoked them ALL!! EVERY ONE!! EVERY TIME !!
George is the best of all country singers! I am so glad I saw George at country tonight few years back. I will never forget him had chill bumps for two hours. DCH
My name is Donny from Logan WV and this concert means alot to me bc I grew up with a little 2pac biggie and other stuff and country wasn't my yhing till I came back home to Logan and joined the American legion and the old timers asked me if I knew how to play the jukebox and I learned really quick to appreciate George Jones and his music
George was in total command of his vocals and stage presence here. He was working off the energy of this adoring crowd. POSSUMMMMM! EVERYONE'S PUMPED UP. Best concert ever.
Yeah it was awesome, I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this. There’s a really good show at Austin City Limits, I go back an watch it over too, hope you check it out. You’re right everyone was pumped up. There are more than one, I haves watched the 1980 performance. Gotta check out the others.
The living legend didn’t like performing. Ironic because he was one of the best to ever do it. Hank Williams will forever be the king of country music. Sitting right next to him is George Jones. Not a big Beatles fan but one of my favorite quotes is a George Harrison one. When he was being interviewed in I think 1964 he stated that George Jones has the best voice in modern American music.
Who's gonna fill these shoes 😢.. George was pure white lightning 🌩.. this is one jar that will never be filled..because thay don't make em like this anymore.. he could command laughter and joy, or make u cry with that guitar and his voice. 😢
I met George Jones Conway Twitty Merle Haggard in Albany Georgia that was the most awesome and memorable concert I've ever been to George Jones is a great guy I got to meet him and I am thrilled I did
I Love George Jone’s among All of them For The Country Singer’s Album! George Straight, When He sings The Chair Awesome and Blessed .Like said Among All Of them Are So Many To Many to mention!
I was at a George Jones concert in 1994. It was the best concert I have ever attended. George and his band were nothing but amazing. I don't think we sat down the entire concert.
George is the very best of country music always make cold cold 😎 chills all over my body!! I will all remember going to country tonight George put on a great show! He still lives in my heart ❤️ 12-2-23 dch
This night was magical , George, The Jones boys , The huge crowd, Every song he sang, brought the crowd into a frenzy. WHAT a night, you could feel the love for George. I loved every minute of it. A llive concert with George Jones. It doesn't get better than this ! ❤❤❤
This is the best version of George's voice that I've found so far. Him and his sideman Ron were on fire this night. George's voice had aged like fine wine by the point of this show and this performance was quite obviously the pinnacle of that aging process.
I agree the best documented performance by far. It's a pity it wasn't longer and that instead of the medley he done full versions of those songs. The 50 celebration concert is very good also especially disc one with all the great guests doing George's songs.
My dad loved listening to George Jones and from the time I was a baby thats all I heard and I loved 🥰 him and everything he sang there will never ever be another George Jones I seen him in concert 🎶 a few times and I loved him I’m 68 years old now and still listening to him music 🎼 country music 🎼 I sent country music 🎼 anymore that’s why I stopped watching CMT that’s not country music 🎼 I can count on one hand who is real country ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🎶🎤🎼
Same as my dad. We would go fishing every fall and the drive was about 14 hours. So i heard lots of George on those trips as a kid. I seen George in concert 6 times . My dad passed in February of this year one week after my 49th birthday. I sure do miss him .
I’m sorry to hear about your dad and I know how much it hurts 😢I was 47 years old when I lost my dad but George jones was the best country music 🎼 of all times 😢😢😢😢😢
Hello Alan, I saw you in concert in Louisville ky at the Louisville gardens back in 1992 I guess . My son and I he was in a wheelchair. I bought a t shrit of yours and put it over a sweat shrit I had on of George Jones and when you started singing don't rock the jukebox I took your t shrit and put it under my chin and showed you George Jones and ar that time people didn't have to seat and you cane over too the edge of the stage and shook my hand and my son and I went out to your bus and you were already on there . Well its to much to text but what you did for my son that you saw people doing to us was just awesome my friend. You made my son one happy young boy and me as a mom tks you from the bottom of my heart ❤️ one day I will tell you what you did for him and you were his favorite singer. You are one special man . Tks,Tks, Tks,❤🙏🙏 and God bless he sees things like this and don't forget. Appreciate it too ❤

One thing I can’t help but notice is the wide range of age groups in this concert. From teens to not so young folks, probably some in their 80s, to as young as high school and college students. When you had it, you had it. George had it. What a phenomenal performance this was.
Have discovered George Jones after listening to Patsy Cline my lifetime. I am completely overwhelmed with his voice and his ability to manipulate it so easily in every word. No one can do it so naturally as George. Every song he sings a story I want to hear over and over.
Wow that is amazing. I remember my Aunt playing his songs on the stereo on LP albums and I was but a little kid and I remember being impressed by George’s voice and how it would send chills down my spine. He had a great gift. Rip George.
I was there with my wife. We are Knoxvillians and sat on the front row of the Civic Coliseum. George' wife was just off to our right. The Kentucky Headhunters opened the show. Then there was a very young newcomer, Faith Hill! We saw her after the show signing autographs. She was stunningly beautiful. The show was amazing....George Jones at his best! I'll never forget that night.
I seen George in the middle of a ball-field. They built a stage in the infield. That was in sharps chapel Tn. I had quart of popcorn Sutton's shine slipped in held it up George seen me said somebody's drinking that good Spring Water.
Good evening George Jones I love you too much more information about this last time we were there and you can give them more than that you guys are doing pretty well good
His wife Nancy kept him going while he battled alcohol and drugs. I think she loved him to keep on keeping on. He finally gave his heart to God and straightened up. I will always listen to him. He was a good friend to many.
Watching this performance when the possum sungs whos gonna fill their shoes,i thought well Alan Jackson of course,,whats gonna hsppen when AJ leaves us i hate to imagine.
George battled the bottle and beat it. I’m so happy I could follow in his footsteps. I’ve been sober for 4 years now. We miss you George. We’ll meet again.
That bottle is a tough one.
Yes I tell myself everyday if George n cash could do it I can too
Quitter. Lol
😮😢😢😮
congratulations hope you feel better. Im proud of you
One of the few shows where George had it all together. He is the best country singer ever.
56yrs old and been listening to George since I 11 ,He may have died, but he will never be forgotten!! No one will ever fill his shoes!!
Not too many singers can make me cry George is one, Craig Morgan is another!!
MR GEORGE JONES had more good shows then not , in his last 33 years .he was a legend when he woke up in the morning , wether he had a bad day or not .
I'm in 2024, and I see a comet hitting earth before we see another George Jones.
There will never be another George jones
Back when country was country and not "twangy pop sung by frat boys" If you know you know.
You are so right!!
Excellent country music artist absolutely love his music ño one will ever be able to be replicate George Jones he sang with his heart and soul I truly appreciate his music. I really do miss him only wish I got to meet him he was a true country music icon and inspiration to many

There never was and never will be another like George Jones. His was a one of a kind, pure country voice. He brought folks of all ages to country music using his beautiful voice to bring us the story in each and every song he sang.
George Jones is the king of the classic country era. George Strait is the king of the modern country era.

I love listening to hear him sing. He sure is missed ❤
The living legend didn’t like performing. Ironic because he was one of the best to ever do it. Hank Williams will forever be the king of country music. Sitting right next to him is George Jones.

Holy shoot, he was a country music star, big time.

If you had the urge to take to dance floor to do a one two step, and be a little intimate,there was nothing better than a George Jones song.
