Remembering George Jones

Not being influenced by country music as a child, it took me well into my 20's to discover the talent of George Jones. It was only after purchasing Drag The River's "Live At The Starlight" did I first hear the song "She Think's I Still Care". From there it just took a few dollars and a couple used record stores till we were good friends.

When he embarked on his Farewell tour (as Glen Campbell did shortly ago) I knew that it wouldn't be long before he was gone. As with Buck, I feel that the sharper the flat-top, the better the record. His early Honky-Tonk recordings are the good stuff for me. He'll be missed by many, but never forgotten on Embrace The Sound.

January 1, 1997 we lost one of if not the greatest American songwriter, Mr. Townes Van Zandt. We took 2 weeks and played his great live performance at the Old Quarter in Houston, TX from July 1973. The album was beautifully reissued in 2009 by Fat Possum Records.
