Definitely one of the greats. He lived a hard life though to live that long.

RIP George.

Saw that earlier. Been listening to him since. I saw him 2 years ago, and although it wasn't 1975 Possum, it was still better than anyone on the radio now. Once in a 100 yrs voice.

Got to watch his last show in Illinois a few weeks ago. Sure glad we made that one. He was strained to sing at that show, but still well worth going.

Remember listening to him on 8 track - my dad was a huge fan! My 16 yo son also got a hankering for some of the Country Gold a few years back and he listened to him as well. Many Classics!

RIP George - thansk for all you did

Yep George was one of my father and his padnahs favourites. Cant hear GJ or Tammy Wynette and not think of them. I remember playing cards listening to GJ 25 yrs ago at the camp – I didn’t appreciate it then but do now. RIP and ohh for faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, and more money
