D,” “Bubba Shot The Jukebox,” “Too Cold At Home,” and many more – making up his

Episode
Two is an
emotional account of his relationship with the legendary George Jones.
“We just had a special friendship. We’d call each other all the time to talk
about things. He gave me a lot of advice. And we sat around on the bus and
sang. That’s my most treasured memory of George Jones,” says Chesnutt in the
clip.
This week’s installment, honors Merle Haggard. Chesnutt discusses an instance when Haggard invited him over to his house for a tour rehearsal with The Strangers, Haggard’s long-time band.

My Kind Of Country Single Review: Mark
Chesnutt – ‘Oughta Miss Me By Now’
It’s always a good news day
when you hear Mark Chesnutt has released new music. His first album in eight
years is due next month, with the encouraging title, Tradition Lives, and in
the mean time here is the first single.
Written by Tony Ramey and
Trey Matthews, this is an excellent song about the aftermath of a breakup,
loaded with irony. The man is missing his ex, and even kind of stalking her,
but is making no actual effort to get her back. Yet he is surprised that she
hasn’t come back to him. Plaintively he bemoans the fact that she doesn’t ring
him, even though he admits he hasn’t tried calling her either. Somehow one
isn’t surprised it’s not working out – but Mark’s emotionally compelling vocals
make one sympathise with his pain regardless.
