George was a very very nice man. After he hit his act together he was a hell of a guy. JD said he and Elvis had plans to go on a gospel tour after the tour that didn’t happen.

Johnny Paycheck is buried in a part of Woodlawn Cemetery that is owned by George Jones. Jones donates plots to country singers who are unable to afford a proper burial. At the time of his death, Johnny Paycheck was penniless and Jones paid for his funeral, his plot, and his headstone. This is the actual story. Thanks, Spa Guy for all of the great shows you have provided us with on KZread. During the months of quarantine, you have really entertained us with information and travels that we would not get to enjoy and know about. I am a REAL fan of all that you give, and all that you do.

George jones was all heart ❤

I really hope a lot of people see this video. You really did such a great job of letting people know where their favorite entertainers have been laid to rest. I saw so much more in this than than I had expected. Loved Jerry reed so much and Lynn Andersen as well as Tammy. My brother was in a bar in Southeast Texas one afternoon and he sat down next to a gentleman sitting at the bar. He was very kind and generous and insisted on buying my brother a few beers throughout the day and when the man got up and left the bartender said something to my brother along the lines of: “ This had to be a neat day for you. It’s not every day you get to sit next to a living legend and spend the day talking.” My brother said, “He’s a legend? Who was that guy?” Well obviously the bartender was stunned and said you didn’t know that was George Jones you’ve been sitting next to all afternoon? You could’ve picked my brother up off the floor. He was never a country music fan; and believe it or not, he did not have the slightest clue what George Jones even looked like. I’ve often wondered how amused George was because there couldn’t have been any doubt in his mind that my brother had no idea who he was.

How lovely it must have been for George to sit next to your brother having a chat with someone who wanted to talk without knowing who he was. Living a normal life chatting to a real friend.

Hello Camo..

I had the honor of meeting George and Tammy when I was working at a radio station in Canada. They were on tour with Connie Smith . I was able to get backstage and talked to both Connie and Tammy for a while. Then Tammy called George over and although he wasn’t thrilled to do so, he shook hands . This would have been in the early 70 s.

George,in my opinion was the King of country music.

At the end of a highway, there is no further you can go. For George, his spirit took wings and his legacy is timeless.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet but George Jones actually paid for Johnny Paycheck's funeral and final arrangements since sadly at the time of Mr. Paycheck's passing his estate was unable to do so. He actually did this for several musicians.

Wow!!! So many greats. Otis Blackwell I did not know he was such a great songwriter

Enjoyed this so much. Nice of you to do these videos for people who are unable to visit these grave sites. I agree with all the others....you do have a very good singing voice. Congrats on your new recording!! Will be looking for it.

Spa Guy ... I wish you would do a re-visit to the cemetery and show us the new 'Lynn Anderson Rose Garden' that's been created. Suppose to have over 100 of her own roses in it with a big bronze plaque.

I used to live in Hendersonville, thanks for these reminders . never was bored when lived there, sorely miss it.. I try to visit often, thank you for posting these vid's they make me want to come back!

Wow so many of the country music greats buried there... Who's gonna fill their shoes. Jim Ed Brown also has a very modest plaque. RIP JEB May your soul find salvation of Thy Great Eternal Love- The Three Bells

So hard to believe Lynn Anderson is gone. 67 years old ... but what a legacy she leaves behind. But for her, I'd have never even listened to country music .. she brought lots of "city folk" in as part of the country music listening audience.

@@TheKentuckylady717 Really? She had one of the biggest-selling and charting hits in the history of country music - "Rose Garden". Plus, many more. She was huge in her era (70s)

This was a great tour. Towards the end where the log cabins were, a few feet over lies the "Cremation Gardens." It has unusual above-ground headstones, such as bird water feeders etc. Sukey Smith was a "local" celebrity/comedian buried in Cremation Gardens. Her small stone says "Go home. I'm not here." LOL I'm being cremated & buried in the Cremation Gardens. I love the historic log cabins, waterfalls, ducks & fish. Cremation Garden is RIGHT THERE where the log cabins are. I was surprised it wasn't shown in the tour. Beautiful tour though! 💞

Another great video for those of us who cant go to these type of things. There is always a lot of decency and respect in all Billys videos too. Bless.

Yeah, me and a family member went into the mausoleum. Smells like death in there and it gets hot during the summer. Overall, couldnt help but notice the grave of George Jones. Super magnificent sight!

Hello Barnes..

Another great video Spa Guy! Nashville, TN is so rich in history; so much to see there. Just a few comments that I thought about during your video...Otis Blackwell was an amazing song writer, one of the best!...I will always wonder what was so important that Elvis wanted to talk to JD about before he died. JD said he never had the time to get back to Elvis...I'm glad Tammy Wynette is resting in peace now, I will always wonder how/why she really died and the truth surrounding her death & the horrible way her estate was handled, such a tragedy... Drift Away was one of my favorite songs...George Jones burial site is amazing! His songs will live on forever for sure...I remember Johnny Paycheck's music too he had a few songs that were favorites of mine too, like "Take This Job & Shove It" and "Don't Take Her, She's All I Got." Great memories! Thanks again for sharing and thank you for all you do. God Bless.

I really really like how you used the drone to show the lay out of the cemetery, great job.

R.i.p, will always love you George Jones you was the greatest real country music artist never will be another.

I think so too but you do have to remember it’s done according to the persons wishes. Tammys children didn’t get to chose for their mother cause there was a arguement going on between Tammys husband at the time and her children. The husband had her cremated before they could stop him. The girls thought it was suspicious circumstances of her death and wanted s autopsy. I saw a interview with her daughters in regard to this situation one time years ago. The girls weren’t told their mother had died for hours after her death.
