IF YOU LIKE ALL George Jones’S SONG GO FOR IT! Now signed to George Jones’s Savoy Records, the title track from second album “The Essential CD1″ leads George Jones’s back-to-school campaign. There is so much to love about George Jones, starting with incredible harmonies, songwriting chops and stellar stage presence. Exciting stuff.
This song has very few things relative to that of it’s predecessor. I now have What My Woman Can’t Do as one of my personal favorites. This song stands out greatly from the others. We Can Make It - isn’t quite as powerful vocally, but has a beautiful melody. Take Me (Duet With Tammy Wynette) have really caught my ear and imagination. We Must Have Been Out Of Our Minds (Duet With Melba Montgomery) - For me, this is the best of the album. It’s a great pleasure to listen to The Race Is On from the beginning to the end. The opening track A Girl I Used To Know is very much like you would expect from other albums. She Thinks I Still Care is a good listen every once in a while. Tender Years is absolutely incredible. This track, in particular, has the kind of undeniably catchy flavor. George Jones rocks harder than ever with Out Of Control. One of the more genuine-sounding songs is You’re Still On My Mind. Color Of The Blues is a song that will not reduce you to tears but leave you thinking long after The Essential CD1 have ended. White Lightning is a song you cannot help but think about at odd moments in your day. I loved Just One More the first time I heard it. This track is just fantastic from start to finish. This track is a great song that still never gets old. Song No Money In This Deal is actually a funny song.
