The Legend of George Jones  (Heritage Builders/ Perien)
by Various Artists

FOR FANS OF: George Jones, Johnny Cash, Randy Travis
Rating: 4 Stars

To coincide with their book of the same name, longtime Jones family friends Charlene and Earl “Peanutt” Montgomery team with various up-and-coming country stars to pay tribute to the late, great country/gospel legend. Besides reinterpreting a smattering of the 73 classic songs “Peanutt” wrote for “The Possum,” the title tune is an entirely new composition that tells of Jones’ amazing legacy both on and off the stage.
