This Is Country Music: George Jones 'He Stopped Loving Her Today'

I mentioned in a previous post about Brad Paisley's new record that Paisley references classic country artists/songs in lead track 'This Is Country Music'. I wanted to follow his lead and showcase those songs myself, as they really do span an incredible selection of country greats.
