George Jones lived to tell about it all
If there was ever a stereotype country singer who started out poor, hit the big time, and lost it all several times before getting sober, it was George Jones. He was so bad at one point, he said he got down to around 105 pounds and was drunk and strung out on cocaine and booze. Fortunately for country music fans, a group of his friends got together and convinced George to sober up and save his life. He is grateful for his friends and after several hit and misses, he apparently is sober today.
Here is one story about his getting sober and then we will feature some of his great songs.
