Missing George Jones

I've loved this guy's music since I was a teenager. I discovered him on my own in Michigan. My dad hated country music, but to me, it was always his white blues that resonated, and still does. I already loved the blues, soul, Motown, but this guy's music, however smaltzy and cliche-ridden, spoke to me. So it was with great sadness this morning that I learned of his death at age 81.
