Dec. 11, 2022 – He opens up about he was at a low point in life and was approached by Sugar Baggott, who later became his manager and convinced Jones to start a nightclub in Printers Alley in Nashville called ‘Possums Hollar.’
After a few months of being in that crowd, he was still hitting rock bottom, and one night he was not doing well enough to do a show. Baggott took him in the back and gave him some coke to get him to sing all night.
“He said just sniff it and you’ll play all night… and I did.”
Ralph Emery then asked if that was the night he got addicted to the substance.
Jones replied with:
“Bad. I didn’t take it like anybody with any sins would take anything. When I found something good, I just got all of everything I could get… that’s funny, but it’s sad.
I didn’t want to lose that feeling, so I’d overdo it, overdo it, overdo it.”
