A Tribute to the Late George Jones

A special tribute to the singer George Jones, who died last week.

A special tribute to the singer George Jones, who died last week.

Jones, who was 81, was regarded as one of - if not the - best country singers of all time. His recording career, which stretched across seven decades, is studded with classics of the genre, including "She Thinks I Still Care", "The Race Is On", "If The Drinking Don't Kill Me (Her Memory Will)" and the song widely considered to be the greatest country song of all time "He Stopped Loving Her Today".

In addition, his duets with Tammy Wynette - who he also married - were a huge success, doubtless enhanced by their famously turbulent private life.
