Ladies Choice / My Very Special Guests

Ladies Choice / My Very Special Guests

Digitally remastered two-fer containing a pair of albums from the country music great on one CD. The two albums in this collection, Ladies' Choice (1984) and My Very Special Guests (1979), both provide a variety of guests in the company of the Possum, as this artist was affectionately named. One of the original intentions of Ladies' Choice was to pair George Jones with, mainly, several up and coming female singers although ironically, it's biggest success came with it's only solo track 'She's My Rock' which rose to #2 in the 1984 Billboard Single Charts. George recorded it as a tribute to his wife Nancy who had helped him turn his life around, putting behind him the years of alcoholism and drug addiction. George Jones helped set a trend for album duet collaborations with My Very Special Guests bringing together a collection of artists who were admirers and peers. Perhaps the presence of Elvis Costello might have been a little surprising but he was a long-time fan and found inspiration from Jones for his country songwriting
