		When Wynette sparkled, however, the emotions reflected in her voice were multi-faceted as diamonds.
		Especially when George Jones, who took Wynette to Heaven and Hell during their marriage, steps up to warble "Take Me to Your World." Every twist of his soulful voice sounds like a plea that echoes from the carnal plane into the spiritual.
