George Jones is a country music legend. Esteemed by many as the genre's greatest singer, Jones has been working his vocal magic since the 1950s, when he cut his first records with producer Peppy Dailey on his home state of Texas, where he was born in 1931. Jones is perhaps best known for the music made during his almost twenty-year tenure at Epic Records. Working with producer Billy Sherrill, Jones recorded a string of country classics, including a number of wrenching duets with Tammy Wynette, to whom he was married, often turbulently, from 1969 to 1974. Well documented have been Jones's problems over the years with drugs and alcohol, and his scores of missed performances. Clean, sober, and happily married now at age sixty-one, Jones has just released a new album called ''Walls Can Fall'', his second for MCA. | |||
Long an admirer of Jones's music, Elvis Costello sang a duet with Jones — the Costello tune "[[Stranger In The House|Stranger in the House]]" — on the country star's ''[[George Jones: My Very Special Guests|My Very Special Guests]]'' record in 1979. Costello also paid homage to Jones on his Billy Sherrill-produced country album ''[[Almost Blue]]'' (1981) with a rendition of the Jones standard "[[Good Year For The Roses|A Good Year for the Roses]]" that hit the top ten in the U.K. When asked to conduct a phone interview from Dublin to Nashville with his country idol on the occasion of Jones's new album, Costello was willing and eager. — P.G. | Long an admirer of Jones's music, Elvis Costello sang a duet with Jones — the Costello tune "[[Stranger In The House|Stranger in the House]]" — on the country star's ''[[George Jones: My Very Special Guests|My Very Special Guests]]'' record in 1979.
