Synopsis
Product Description
-1st Time Ever on CD!
-Plus, includes two previously unreleased songs by George Jones!
It should come as no surprise that George Jones, whose voice is the gold standard of country singing, can sing a gospel song like no one else. When these recordings were made in the 1960's, George's life was a sad litany of alcohol abuse, unaccountable behavior and missed show dates.
In contrast to the turmoil of his life, these recordings evoke images of mother and home and a life lived in the knowledge of Jesus. We know we're hearing a backslider who is filled with shame, who is offering himself up for redemption the only way he knows how: through a song. That's what makes these recordings so inexpressibly moving.
Time Life is proud to release 'George Jones: SACRED SONGS.' None of the Gospel favorites on this album like 'Cup of Loneliness,' 'Will There Be Any Stars in My Crown' and 'The Good Old Bible' have ever been available on CD, plus we've included two previously unreleased songs ('Where the Soul Never Dies' and 'The Old Rugged Cross'), sure to please any George Jones fan.
