When George Jones passed away, his family chose the Opry House—the home of the music he loved—as the site for his funeral service. On May 2, 2013, during that service, fellow Opry member Alan Jackson performed Jones’ signature song, “He Stopped Loving Her Today,” standing on the same circle of wood where Jones had sung it for Opry audiences many times, including on June 12, 1993.
Using modern technology, we’ve combined both performances into a single track. Listen to the powerful, “full-circle” blend featured on Opry 100: Country’s Greatest Songs.
