What?? How is it ridiculous? Jones charted over 150 songs and is widely considered the greatest country singer of all time. Let me know when Merle Haggard has top 10 songs for 5 decades.


And I know it's hard to say who is really the best, but in my opinion it's Jones. Hell even Haggard said Jones was the greatest ever.

Jones
Hank Williams
Haggard
Jennings
Cash
Buck Owens
Ernestt Tubb
Willie Nelson
Jim Reeves
Ray Price
Bob Wells
Roy Ackuff
Jimmie Rodgers

They've all said that when the other one dies.

You do have a good list there. (Although some are misspelled.)


For my top 5 of all time, I'd probably have to go with Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Hank Williams, Waylon Jennings, George Jones.
