Throughout  Jones\u2019 life, the tabloids chronicled his struggle with personal demons  and often painted a less-than-flattering picture. In the book, which is  endorsed by all of George Jones\u2019 children, Charlene and Peanutt tell it  like it is and make no excuses, but they document the real heart and  soul of their friend.<\/p>\n<p> \u201cThe Legend of George Jones\u201d is a collection of stories spanning many  decades, five marriages and a marvelous career unequaled in the genre of  Country Music. From humble beginnings playing the guitar and singing on  the streets of Beaumont, Texas, George Jones became one of the most  important and influential singers in music history. The Grammy  Award-winning Country Music Hall of Fame and Grand Ole Opry member was  the voice behind many of Country music\u2019s most enduring hits, such as  \u201cWhite Lightning,\u201d \u201cShe Thinks I Still Care,\u201d \u201cWalk Through This World  With Me,\u201d \u201cThe Door,\u201d \u201cI Was Country When Country Wasn\u2019t Cool\u201d and \u201cHe  Stopped Loving Her Today,\u201d which is widely regarded as one of the  greatest country music singles of all time.<\/p>\n<p> Peanutt wrote seventy-three songs for George Jones including some of his  best-loved number one hits. Charlene, Peanutt\u2019s wife and partner, is a  prolific songwriter in her own right, and she had a personal  relationship with Jones that spanned decades, and she remains today a  revered and beloved friend of all the Jones children.    <\/p>\n<p> Among the book\u2019s highlights: <br \/> \u2022\tThe real reason George Jones and Tammy Wynette divorced.<br \/> \u2022\tThe night George Jones tried to kill Peanutt Montgomery in a drunken rage.<br \/> \u2022\tThe culprits who brought George Jones to bankruptcy \u2013 and his knees \u2013 are revealed.<br \/> \u2022\tThe betrayal of George Jones\u2019 children by fifth wife Nancy Jones.<\/p>\n<p> Source: www.heritagebuilderspublishing.com<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Charlene and Earl \u201cPeanutt\u201d Montgomery remember Country Music icon George Jones &#8211; their best friend&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5856","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-music-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5856","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5856"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5856\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5856"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5856"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5856"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
