Complete Collection: 1960 - 1962 (4Cd)

• Shrink-wrapped

Highly regarded for his distinctive vocal style and extensive catalogue, featuring a slew of hit records, George Jones qualifies as arguably country music s finest performer of all time. Famed country music historian Bill C. Malone has stated that 'for the two or three minutes consumed by a song, Jones immerses himself so completely in its lyrics, and in the mood it conveys, that the listener can scarcely avoid becoming similarly involved.' Waylon Jennings remarked that, 'if we all could sound like we wanted to, we'd all sound like George Jones.' With more than 150 hits to his name and a career spanning six decades, Jones is equally as revered in country music circles as Hank Williams, Willie Nelson and Johnny Cash. This collection, split over four discs, contains the great man s entire recorded output for the period 1960 - 1962, an era when he was enjoying overwhelming chart success. Remastered to the highest quality, this set will serve as a fitting introduction to newcomers of this legendary performer, and a fine reminder for the rest of us as to what a giant of country music George Jones remains.
