A Picture of Me (Without You) is an album by American country music singer George Jones. It was released in 1972 on the Epic Records label. The release was Jones' 47th studio album, his second solo LP for Epic Records, and is also one of four albums released by the singer during the year 1972 (two as a solo artist, and two duet albums with his wife Tammy Wynette) as producer Billy Sherrill wasted no time in flooding the market with new recordings by "the Possum". Jones's first album, George Jones (We Can Make It), made it to number 10 on the country albums charts but his second effort did better, rising to number three and featuring songs with a wider range of themes than those found on his Epic debut, which celebrated the happiness of new love. The album's title track was the only single release from it, peaking at #5 on the Billboard country singles charts.\n\nIn addition to love ballads, A Picture of Me (Without You) also includes songs more in line with Jones's reputation as country music's greatest interpreter of heartache, like the bitter "On The Back Row" and the Ernest Tubb classic "Tomorrow Never Comes" (which Elvis Presley had recorded the year before). The collection also contains Tom T. Hall's "Second Handed Flowers", the kind of "story song" that had always been a part of Jones's repertoire. After a shaky start, Jones and Sherrill sound more comfortable with each other's formidable reputation as they get to know each other musically. Their creative partnership would often be a compromise between the producer's sonic experimentation and the singer's hardcore country instincts. Biographer Bob Allen quotes the singer in his book George Jones: The Life and Times of a Honky Tonk Legend: "I've got too much respect for country music to abuse it. I don't want a thousand violins and twenty trumpets on my records." \n\n.......................LYRICS---------------\n\n“A Picture Of Me Without You George Jones” cover\n\nImagine....\nA world... where..\nNo mu...sic\nWa..a-a-as pla..ying....\n...\nThen think of.....!\nA chu..u-urch\nWith no...bo....ody\nPra..a-aying....\nIf you..'ve ever..\nLooked up.. at....\nA sky\nWith no...o blue..ue-ue\nThen you've seen....!\nA picture..\nOf.. me.. with..out.. you..\n\nHave you.. walked..\nIn a gar...de..en\nWhere nothing\nWa..a-as growing..\n...\nOr stood... by..\nA ri...!ver..\nWhere no....thing\nWa..as flo..owing...\nIf you've..\nSeen a red rose..\nUnkissed\nBy... the de..ew..\nThen you've seen....!\nA picture..\nOf.. me.. with..out.. you..\n\nCan you.. pic....ture\nHea....ven\nWith no...! an...gels\nSi..nging\nOr a quiet\nSunday mor..ning\nWith no... church bell..!s\nRi..nging\nIf you've watched..\nAs the heart.. of..\nA child...'s\nBreaks in two..\n\nThen you've seen....!\nA picture..\nOf.. me.. with..out.. you......\n\nGeorge Glenn Jones (born September 12, 1931) is an American country music singer known for his long list of hit records, his distinctive voice and phrasing, and his marriage to Tammy Wynette. more »\n\nYear:\n 1997
