Synopsis

Product Description
THAT LEGENDARY VOICE... Many consider George Jones to be the greatest singer in country music history, but a number of his best-loved recordings from his chart-topping years have never been available on CD. Jones recorded for Musicor Records from 1965 until 1972, when he was at the peak of his vocal form, and for years these tracks have been tied up in litigation and haven't been available on CD, until now. THE GREAT LOST HITS is a 10-track collection including his all-time classics like "A Good Year for the Roses," "Walk through this World with Me," "I'll Share My World with You," "Love Bug," and ""The Race Is On." George Jones is the gold standard of country vocalists, and his distinctive voice evokes the raw emotions caused by grief, love, and emotional hardship. There is no doubt that Jones helped set the standard for modern country music. WHY BUY? Scans: His catalog scans over 200k annually. He's charted more singles than any other artist in any other format (167). King of Hits: He has the most Top-40 Hits (143). Two of his albums were certified Platinum; 11 albums went Gold. He's won numerous awards including Male Vocalist of the Year, Song of the Year, Top Duet of the Year, and a Grammy for "He Stopped Loving Her Today." More Awards: In addition, Jones has received the four highest honors that can be granted to anyone in music: induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame, the presidential National Medal of Arts, the Kennedy Center Honors, and a Grammy "Lifetime Achievement Award." 2012 Tour: Jones still headlines at dozens of concerts each year, entertaining his millions of loyal fans. Value-priced: 10-track CD is a new, value-priced collection.
