George is one of the main performers of American country music, a kind of "spiritual bond" of Americans. The simplicity, sincerity and some naivete of these songs reflects the soul of the American people and not only like them. A whimsical fusion of native English, Scottish, Irish tunes became what is considered American folk country music, roughly speaking – to which cowboys danced in saloons, after a hefty dose of whiskey.

Jones is known for his intonation rich vocals and expressive manner of performance, allowing him to convey through subtle nuances of emotional state, which requires the song (usually a sense of grief and loss). He is often compared to Frank Sinatra, who once spoke of Jones as his main competitor in the world of music.
One hundred and sixty-seven of George's hits hit the U.S. charts-a record. This guy is periid UPS and downs, professionalny disease – alcoholism – nearly drove him to his grave, and then to it was added powder, it seemed now just sucks – but managed to survive! As told by his wife-when she hid the car keys, he went to the nearest bar on a lawn mower…

But he could sing great, that's not to take away! ... To hear them Like voices special there – so he took control of the intonation and nuances of the performance – I just trudge... Health God gave him excellent – he died at 82 in 2013, and the voice in the end sounded as brilliant…
