Country music has lost one of its all-time-greatest icons, as legendary singer George Jones died Friday (April 26) at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville. He was hospitalized on April 18 with a fever and irregular blood pressure.

The legendary George Jones has been admitted to a Nashville hospital after a routine checkup revealed a slight fever and irregular blood pressure. A statement from the singer's publicist says he is being kept for observation, and weekend shows scheduled for Atlanta, Ga. and Salem, Va. have been postponed.

The legendary George Jones may be retiring, but not before staging what's shaping up to be one of the most impressive farewell concerts in country music history. The 81-year-old entertainer will be joined by a huge roster of celebrity guests at his final concert, and he's just added Billy Ray Cyrus, 'American Pie' singer Don McLean and (somewhat improbably) pop star Cyndi Lauper to the roster.

If you're one of the many fans who's disappointed because you couldn't get a ticket to George Jones' sold out farewell concert in Nashville, well ... prepare to get even more disappointed. On top of the enormous roster of guest stars slated to appear at the once-in-a-lifetime event, Jones has just added even more star power, including Alan Jackson and Travis Tritt.

Legendary country singer George Jones will perform the final concert date of his career at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena on Friday, Nov. 22, 2013. The iconic country favorite will be joined by an all-star cast for his big send-off, and now Garth Brooks, Kid Rock, Shelby Lynne, the Oak Ridge Boys and Sam Moore have been announced for the historic event.

The Tuesday K-LAW Classic was the #1 country song 30 years ago - February 26th 1983. It was co-written and originally recorded by George Jones.

George Jones will cap his 58-year career as one of country music's most revered artists with a final performance on Nov. 22 at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena. Randy Travis, Jamey Johnson, the Charlie Daniels Band and Lorrie Morgan will share the stage with living legend for what's sure to be a historic event.

Well, I guess it's no surprise that the monster Song of the Year for 2010 was also the Video of the Year as well.

Recently, rumors have been whirling about George Jones‘ ‘declining’ health, which has had fans anxious to hear the latest on Possum. An official release from the singer’s camp this week confirms that the legend is “alive and well, and happy to be touring.”

Last week, we pitted the brand new video for Rascal Flatts' 'Come Wake Me Up' against Jerrod Niemann's 'Shinin On Me'.  In one of the closest showdowns that we have seen in some time, Jerrod Niemann was the winner with 53% of the vote.

Arguably the biggest country music song of all time, today's KLAW Classic hit the top of the country charts 31 years ago today.

After a handful of health scares this year, George Jones has been given the green light to hit the road once again. The legend’s wife, Nancy, took to Facebook to share the good news with Jones’ legions of loyal followers.
