________________________________________
Released in 1990, YOU OUGHTA BE HERE WITH ME was the last album George Jones
recorded with legendary producer Billy Sherrill for CBS Records (discounting
FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES, which was a cut and paste duet album) and it is also
the record that prompted Jones to leave the label in disgust. This LP was
virtually ignored and received no promotion from the label, sinking without a
trace. This is indeed a shame.
The opening track, "Hell Stays Open All Night Long" is vintage George and the
masterpiece of the album, a slab of stone-cold country about a man begging to
"come back home" but turned away by his beloved. The Roger Miller written "You
Oughta be Here With Me" is also sung majestically, with a spoken word piece
delivered with the emotion only "the Possum" can breathe into a microphone.
Other highlights include "I Sleep Just Like A Baby," "If The World Don't End
Tomorrow," and "A Cold Day In December." More than anything else, this album
shows that Jones and Sherrill were still looking forward and were not afraid
to take chances, which is clearly evident on "Ol' Red," a song about a prisoner
who escapes from prison with the help of a vicious but very horny bloodhound.
It boggles the mind that this album is a lost classic, but it is, and if you
consider yourself a true George Jones fan and you've never heard this, you must
order it now! YOU OUGHTA BE HERE WITH ME proves that Jones may have gone out with
a commercial whimper with Sherrill and CBS Records, but it was a big bang artistically.
