Yet another "At Hs Best"...,
By Amazonaddict (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: At His Best (Audio CD)
This has to be about the tenth George Jones album titled "At His Best". I bought this album because it has one of Jones's best songs on it -- "The Hardest Part Of All". Even my friends who don't like country like this song. God forbid RCA would actually re-release the original album (Wrapped Around Her Finger) on CD but until that happens this "At His Best" CD will have to do.
5.0 out of 5 stars

If it weren't for the maudlin "He Stopped Loving Her Today", I may not have got this CD, but I knew I could expect some good sounds from George Jones. It is said that George Jones didn't want to record "He Stopped Loving Her Today" but then certainly wished he had more of his signature award winning song.
Not known for songwriting, his speciality is just his voice..he can sing so many covers and it is amazing. And here, he does a beautiful version of Kenny Rogers' "Ruby Don't Take Your Love to Town". I love that song and George does it justice. "Am I That Easy to Forget" sounds beautiful too. Equally great interpretation is "Saginaw Michigan", and "I Threw Away the Rose". This is an excellent CD and if you love the sound of George Jones, you will cherish this too. This music is a departure from some of his standard hits. It's refreshing .....Rizzo

Superb collection of some of the Country King's Best.,
By Jim Traweek jjimt@wt.net (Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: At His Best (Audio CD)
Departed but never to be forgotten, George Jones graced us with some of the most sincere and touching country music of the 20th century. His masterful voice and some of his very best work are chronicled in this small but well done collection. Included are He Stopped Loving Her Today, Saginaw Michigan, and Your Angel Steps Out of Heaven. And George's version of There Goes My Everything. My favorite, although not originally sung by George, is I Threw Away the Rose. (The Days of Wine and Roses). There may be other fine studio recordings of George... I don't know, and I can't say every cut is a memory shocker, but I can vouch for this, GEORGE JONES At His Best, this GREAT CD. Crank it up a bit, okay? Pop a top and sit back. ...and hand ME one over here! Once! I lived! A life, of wine, and Ro---ses!
