From a former Lubbockite, he will be missed. And yes, he was buried in Lubbock in his blue jeans. Grew up with his music.
I saw George Jones come out of the Holiday Inn in 1979 on a Sunday morning from the restaurant at Carencro, Louisiana, George was very thin and he look old, George carried a leather briefcase, I was sitting in my mother’s Lincoln town’s car, George didn’t walk straight to his room, he stood a few feet away from me, George then walked up the stairs to his room which was next to our room, my aunt got a autograph, he said “he was heading to Oklahoma, I remember he had a old Eagle bus, I remember I had watched Tom Petty sing “refuge” on Saturday Night live in our room the night before, I was 17 years old and excited to see a real Country Star, later by accident I accidentally ran into George at Monroe’s Louisiana fair on a Friday night, it had rained and he did some mini shows under a tent with few people there, he looked healthy and Nancy was there, I didn’t know George would be singing for free and he was excellent, He didn’t look frail or haggard, he is the only person in Country music I ran into by accident besides Freddy Fender at a casino parking lot
the only person she put down was his children, drug dealers,business people who wanted his money, all I can say is “George was estranged from them for most of their lives because he was 99% George Jones, so of course there were problems?
Dope interview!!!
As usual Dez is trying to be politically correct. The reality is that the Stone’s crowd of drunk white bigots took their hate out on the band.
George loved Nancy not tammy
I met Mac Davis in a bad situation. A lady in front of him slammed on her brakes because she missed her turn. He bumped her and I bumped him. When he got out of the car and I recognized him, I tried to lighten the situation by saying, “Of all the people in Los Angeles I could’ve crashed into, it had to be one of my heroes.” (It was true. I grew up with his music, as most of us did.) He was a gentleman throughout the ordeal and always called me buddy. He even told me a story about when he bought his first car with the money he earned from writing “In the Ghetto” for Elvis. He called it his “Elvis car”. He said he was driving down the street one day “looking at a girl’s rear end walking along the sidewalk instead of the rear end of the car in front of me” (as he put it) and didn’t see it had stopped until it was too late. He caused a lot of damage to that car, and he had only had it for a month or two. He probably told me that to make me feel better about running into him. As the old saying goes, the best way to know someone’s true character is to see how they behave in a bad situation, and how they treat someone who can’t do anything for them. By both measures, Mac was an absolute prince. I cried when he died like he was a good friend. The best artists make you feel that way. Rest in peace, buddy.
She's not a Christian at all treated George's kids like crap and cut them out of his will. Wouldn't even let them sir with her at his memorial
She has always said they met on a blind date through one of her friends, yet just read this on a reliable website.👇 Nancy Sepulvado met George Jones in 1981 while working as a nurse at rehabilitation centre where Jones was a patient. Nancy Sepulvado and George Jones went on an amazing adventure together after meeting at a treatment center.
Omg she was crazy too 😂
She’s so insightful
Great interview Mr. Blackmon.
I'm speechless. Thank you both.
That George and Tammy movie I saw the first and second episode I was very disappointed that guy he could not sing like George Jones neither did that lady can sing like Tammy Wynette
What's name of movie
Well to be far no one can sing like them so yea there is that
@@vickiefoley2376 Alan Jackson and Leeann Womack sure can
What worries me is that there's women who are married to drunks and druggie they think they can fx. Nancy didn't take his demons away, George did. One thing ALANon says is, who has that kind of power? and they stress how arrogant that is. Nancy was addicted to rhe addict. "I had to get rid of them."demons) Hers is a very rare story. I'm not liking her being negative about others in his family before her. Leave that alone. I also feel it's too dangerous for women. to stay in any relationship if a man hits. I don't care what sweet side he has sober.
Love Nancy, thanks for keeping George around so long as he would have been gone long before if it wasn’t for you
Nancy has always been an attention whore ....she may have helped George along the way but she acts as though she created George
Hi Nancy i met you and George in Akron Ohio, I loved you both, you signed my T shirt. I have George’s book , I want to get your book also. God Bless You Nancy 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️😇😇😇🦅🦅🦅
Dez is one of the smartest people in the music industry. You can clearly is why Prince had so much respect for this guy...
Great interview!
Dez....completely gets it... Don't fool yourself people.
Does anyone know who the people on stage with Nancy are?
I wish someone would tell the truth about the love that George and Tammy had for one another instead of it making it sound as though they totally hated one another.
@@charlenemontgomery1850I can't wait to read the book. I also read your book and thought it was great. It is sad how bad Nancy talked about George's kids.
@@charlenemontgomery1850 You, Charlene, can't spell or write correctly! Take a writing class!
I heard yesterday about Nancy's daughter Adina unfortunate accident. All my prayers to her and family.
What a great interview Nancy.
Why didn't someone give her a kleenex
With all due respect if George told Nancy to kill them with kindness (enemies) than why are you not treating his biological children with kindness? Those children were severely neglected by George because of his addictions. They must have grown up feeling unloved by him. For that alone he owed them a debt of unconditional love not further estrangement. Something is not right about this .... Kill them with kindness Nancy and reconcile with them. They are still his children! Those little children he neglected are still within them and need healing.😢 Family dynamics can be very difficult. I have no issue with putting firm boundaries in place but complete estrangement is not ok.
Amen
Agree 💯 and more with this
It was a nice interview. I never watched the series and won't. It didn't even look good.
What is her name in the pink and yellow scocks
Dez 🤟🏾🎸
👍👍👍
Can’t wait for her book! I got to visit with her at George’s grave in 2019. She is a wonderful Christian woman and so humble and such a sweetheart . Loved and miss George and love Nancy . We had several pictures taken sitting on George’s monument . I have our picture on my wall. I would love to see her again just to chat❤❤
I’m very glad to see Nancy Jones. To me she is a hero. To this day everyone still connects Tammy with George. Yes they were married had a child and made music. But Nancy is the one that Stood By Her Man. I hope Nancy knows she is loved and admired. ❤
She is married to a concert man
@@brendaseager7371Tammy is his true love as Nancy married to a concert man
I love this interview and can’t wait to get this book! My second husband was a handful because of prescription meds given after his son was murdered. So many rehabs and years and worry over my kids. But ai knew he was a good man and God gave me signs that it would be ok . Now we will be married 37 years in September . In his sober years and accepting Christ, he has been my hero and loved me and my kids and family and even my former husband’s family like crazy. Thank you for this Nancy
YES Nancy tell the truth,George loved Tammy and you didn’t like that did you?You also say about georgette making money on the Tammy & George series how about you and the book!! also saying things about your husbands children that’s NOT VERY Christian of you…!!LIES LIES COMES OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!! YOU LOVE THE MONEY MORE THEN GEORGE DID,YOU REMIND ME OF RICHEY
That is great to hear from Nancy. Nancy tells it like it is, I respect that! George was the same way, always promoting traditional country. I will definitely purchase Nancy’s book for I know it will be 100% accurate.Keep speaking the gospel and God Bless you!
Nancy lies !
Why do you say she lies
Nancy has told some lies here , on stage George was spitting on Tammy
When he was singing with her he did spit but not on purpose
Turn to Jesus, declare Christ, not idols. 1 John 5:19;21 “We know that we are of God, and that the whole world is under the power of the evil one.“ “Little children, keep yourselves from idols.”
Wonder why they were going to sell "George Jones" moonshine at the museum built after his death.
Love this looking forward to the book 📖❤
Thanks from Australia
You were meant to be with George Jones. Because he needed prayers to call on God almighty. To be saved from the sinfulness.
Good morning. Nancy Jones from mantinwoc WI. SharonDull is watching from Wisconsin. George Jones Will be missed. He was a great singer.

What an interesting interview! Looking forward to reading the book!
I wish someone would have asked Nancy what her life was like From the point she married George to 1999? If I remember correctly he stopped the drugs but still drank on and off and was difficult to live with.
She didn't love him tho
Read his book “I lived to tell it all” then you will know. I don’t think it was a bed of roses, I often wondered myself until I read his book.
Oh my God!!! There is a book coming out about the fourth wife of George Jones. The Movie George and Tammy is not a bunch of lies. I played a part on the movie and so did my husband. We were both played by a Professional actor ( Walton Goggins) and actress ( kate Artington,) the wife of Michael Shannon. Michael Shannon Played George Jones and done a wonde rful job. Who do you know that could he e done any better,,???? As far as
Charlene, I would love to have you and Peanut visit my class next year and be interviewed. The students do research before, and we will preserve the interviews at The Center for Popular Music. I use interviews and excerpts from your book in class. It would be great to get your perspective. I'm especially interested in your friendship with George and Tammy and learning more about your sister, Linda. Please email me at: Odie.blackmon@mtsu.edu
I don’t believe much of this, why no mention of the adopted grandson, yet no relationship with his own sons. Her & Richey sound a lot alike. I believe George still loved Tammy, it was obvious the way he looked at her. The accident in 1999 was the defining moment for George, he said he made a deal with God to never smoke or drink again. Ultimately the alcoholic is the one that gets sober. I wonder what George would think about this, I can’t imagine George talking bad about Tammy.
Charlene, I really loved and enjoyed the series.
@@SuzyQ1956I have the same question about no nention of his biological children. Plus she states she didn't watch past the first episode but calls all of it lies lies lies. I don't think Nancy is a bad person and she probably was a good wife to George but the complete estrangement of his children is not right. Especially considering that George's motto to people who upset you was "kill them with kindness." Both renditions are probably true. George probably minimized his sexual energy with Tammy on stage because he didn't want to hurt Nancy. George and Tammy probably fought once they were off stage to manage their own feelings toward each other. When they perform together on stage the attraction is alive. It's hard to deny!
@@OdieBlackmonthis would be awesome! Did charlene or Peanut write a book?
This is awesome!
Thank you both for this wonderful interview. It was insightful and I STILL miss Prince. This world will NEVER be the same without him.
