I bought two new CD's this evening. Hard to believe isn't it after getting four of Vince this Tuesday but Vince is on one of them so it's okay, lol.

Vince is on George's new CD God's Country George Jones and Friends. He sings She Thinks I Still Care. There is also a DVD and Vince looks so cute in it. 5'0clock shadow and glasses. He talks in it and it shows him singing the song looking at the paper with the words on it with his glasses on.

The other CD is Brad's Christmas CD I haven't listened to it yet but I'm sure it's a keeper. Is this Brad's first Christmas CD?

Also on amazon Vince got a good review for his singing on George's CD. Some of the other singers didn't fare so well. They said the best performances was by those who didn't try and sound like Geoge like the luminous Vince Gill. Way to go Vince. Others on the CD are Pam Tillis, Tanya, Joe Diffie , Sammy Kershaw (he is one I wouldn't have know it was him singing if I had seen on the back on the CD)

Anyway hearing Vince and the DVD are good enough for me.

Thanks for the review, Deb. While scouting around Tuesday looking for a 2nd copy of the boxed set I got the George Jones CD at Walmart. I just got a chance to listen to it yesterday. I agree, Vince sounds great. I haven't watched the DVD yet. Glad to hear Vince is on it.

Good to know. I haven't listenened to it. I bought it and Vince's box sst the same time. Can't wait to listen to it.

George Jones was suppose to be here in Murray Ky this past weekend, but he broke his hand, or something. He is suppose to have surgery today. He had to cancel his concerts for the weekend. I think the radio said that, he hit in on an awning going in to a business in Nashville and then fell on it.

This would make a nice gift. My friend Sara loves George Jones. The first time we went to Nashville he was at the Coliseum and she just sat with her hands together as if in prayer. I think it wass almost the thrill of her life . Santa could leave her a copy of this cd .

Anna, George only sings on the CD twice. He sings a new song called God's Country and he sings Beer Run with Garth. He is on the DVD alot though. It shows him singing and then talking to the other artists.

I love the cover of the CD. It is a painting instead of a picture. George is in the front and the other artists are positioned around him. Really a cool painting. They showed his wife in the DVD looking at the big painting of it and she said something about that wouldn't go in the basement it would go upstairs, lol.

This CD would make an excellent present for a GJ fan but I just wanted to make sure you knew that he only sings twice on the CD.

I see Deb. I think she would like it .

I just got the GJ cd today and haven't had a chance to hear it yet.
love ya, SHIRL.

FYI - If you want a George Jones CD that's new - try the one just released by George and Merle Haggard...called "Kicking the Footlights Out Again" (It's Merle signing George songs - 5 of them and George signing Merle songs - 5 of them...there is also 4 brand new duets they sign together).

It is a great "country" sound and interesting to hear Merle sing:
The Race is On
She thinks I still care
Things Have Gone to Pieces
I Always get Lucky with You
The Window Up Above
(all with George on background)...

And George signing:
The Way I Am
All My Friends Are Strangers
I Think I will Just Sit Here & Drink
Sing Me Back Home
You Take Me For granted
(All with Merle on background vocals)...

The 4 new duets are called:
Footlights
Born With the Blues
Sick, Sober and Sorry
Don't Get Around Much Anymore.

All very "country" - awesome in my opinion....

I bought one from a site that had it hand signed by each artist - I plan to give it to my Dad for Xmas.

That sounds awesome Charlie. I love both of those artist. I will lean toward Merle's music but George is great too.
