  • I was sitting at home relfecting on the passing of George Jones and remembered meeting him at Hank Cochran's memorial service. I thought again of my old friend, Hank, and remembered this little tidbit where he tells a great story about him and George when then were running together back in the sixties. This is an excerpt from his interviews with us for "Hank Cochran: Livin' for a Song". It didn't make it into the final cut of the film but I thought it was worth sharing so I put this together this morning. Rest in Peace, George!

    Oddly, old Hank’s story is perfectly believable. God bless Hank and the old possum.

    This is treasure. Hank Cochran is a big part of traditional country music. Him and Dean Dillon from a songwriting standpoint.

    'You combed her hair'... was MY MaMas favorite GJ song. MaMa turned me on to George in 1965 with ALL those albums she played when I came home from school. I still have mamas album where he sang with Melba Montgomery. Man, what a GREAT duet on ALL those songs there!!

    Thats an awesome story but I have questions that you didn't answer. Who was the guy the hit you?, Why did he hit you?, How long did you stay under the table? Did anyone try come to your aid?, Where the cops called?, Did you ever get your coffee?, What happened next?. So many questions......
