How about Hank Williams Sr. or Jr? You heard of them? Or Merle Haggard or Conway Twitty or Johnny Cash or Patsy Cline?

I want to know just how ignorant you are of Country Music (ignorant is not an insult in this context- look it up) so I know from what point you;re coming from.

To answer your question, George Jones has long been considered one of the leading voices in "Country Music". He's also a notorious drunkard with the nickname "George No-Show Jones". I'm not a fan of Country but am a fan of those mentioned above.
