Hits by George is a greatest hits album by American country music artist George Jones released in July 1967 on the Musicor Records label.
Background
Hits By George includes mostly remakes of songs from earlier in Jones's career, including the number one hits "White Lightning" and "She Thinks I Still Care". Part of the motivation for the release may have been the number of Jones releases that were still being issued by the singer's former record label Mercury Records, which owned the rights to masters that dated back to the mid-1950s. It continued Jones's string of top ten albums, reaching number 9.
