Sirius/XM 60 has been playing George Jones most of the afternoon. Turned down low so I haven't heard what the DJs have been sayin'. Truly, one of the Greats! RIP.

What a loss for Nashville, and the country music community. A member of the Country Music Hall of fame since 1992, and a Member of the Grand Ol' Opry since 1956. And a string of over 150 hits from 1956-1992, including 16 #1's. What a lifetime achievement. He will be missed and revered for many years to come. Really makes you wonder "whose gonna fill their shoes"
