Recording information: 1977 - 1994.

In 1977, the Possum, George Jones, one of the greatest pure country singers of all time, helped start a trend that continues to this day: The Duets Album. He got together with friends and fans, picked some songs-- new ones, standards--got a sharp backup band, and let it happen. Peers Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings are here, as are onetime wife Tammy Wynette, pop star Linda Rondstadt, and the then up and coming "new wave" angry young man Elvis Costello. The latter was actually very natural: Costello is a longtime Jones fan and brings to the session his original song, "Stranger In The House," a quintessential honky-tonk tune.

This set isn't the usually mournful, soulful fare that Jones does so well--it's a "party" album for the most part. Yet at this party everyone performs with earnestness, good humor and respect, to both their host and the songs sung. Highlights are "Stranger..." and the duet with Emmylou Harris, "Here We Are."
