Disco de George Jones: “Rock: Stone Cold Country 2001”

I've been waiting for this cd for 2 years, ever since the release of "Cold Hard Truth" the Possum's last cd, I've been looking forward to his new album. I have NOT been let down! No way! This cd is a must for all George Jones Fans, and the casual country music fan. At 70 his voice sounds more rich & pure than ever. The songs picked on this cd are golden. "The Rock" is spellbinding, "Beer Run" shows Jones & Garth Brooks having a ball! This cd is a good balance of uptempo songs & ballads that are George Jones trademark. "Honey Hush" is an absolute favorite of mine, as well as "Tramp On Your Street". I dearly hope the Possum's voice never let's him down. On this new release, he hits all the high & low notes, no one does it better than the incomparable GEORGE GLENN JONES. Now if only this cd can go straight to #1 on the charts, then the Possum will get well deserved recognition. He will never need a rocking'chair!

If you are a country music fan I highly recommend you buy this

CD. Even at age 70, George Jones voice is still amazing. All

12 tracks are very well produced. Standout tracks for me include

"Beer run" (duet with Garth Brooks), "Wood and Wire", "The man he

was" and "Tramp on your street". I have a feeling the ole possum is

gonna get alot of country radio airplay out of this CD!

Here is another CD that will be one of George's greatest. Every song on this CD will bring tears to your eyes, especially 50,000 Names. Every time I play this CD I think it is his very best and I have almost everything he has ever recorded. His voice just keeps getting better. This CD is a must have for anyone who loves country music and George Jones.

The spectrum of songs don't take the fullest advantage of George's remarkable voice, as did his last album, the Cold Hard Truth, but this album is a winner. More upbeat than the Cold Hard Truth. Despite the publicity given to George's duet with Garth Brooks, this is far from being the strongest song. There is no reason at all why several of these songs should not get radio play on country stations... but of course they won't.

I hope that shinnagins with record labels won't interfere again with George Jone's album output. His voice still seems pretty close to its peak - we need to get that voice down as much as possible, even though we know ol' George will still be singing at 80!

I bought the CD and I give it a 5 stars. I love to hear George's voice. I always know that the songs he sings are real.

They tell a story. They make you feel something. I have never yet bought a George Jones Album that I have in time stopped listening to. If I have had it 1 year or 10 years I still listen to all of them. I think alot of singers are more interested in how many albums they put out each year instead of the quality of the album. On day when I was buying CD's my daughter said mama you have enough CD's by him. My response was you can never get enough George Jones CD's!!!!!! I seen where someone only gave the album 4 stars. There finger must have slipped off the 5 and hit the 4 by mistake. I don't type to well myself but they should be more careful. It makes them look bad when they don't give credit where credit is due! I can't wait till your next album comes out.
