Question: Who did A.L. "Doodle" Owens work with to write many songs for the singer of "He Stopped Loving Her Today"?

 He achieved international fame for his long list of hit records, including his best known song "He Stopped Loving Her Today", as well as his distinctive voice and phrasing.  For the last twenty years of his life, Jones was frequently referred to as the greatest living country singer.  Country music scholar Bill C. Malone writes, "For the two or three minutes consumed by a song, Jones immerses himself so completely in its lyrics, and in the mood it conveys, that the listener can scarcely avoid becoming similarly involved."  Waylon Jennings expressed a similar opinion in his song "It's Alright": "If we all could sound like we wanted to, we'd all sound like George Jones." George Glenn Jones (September 12, 1931 – April 26, 2013) was an American musician, singer and songwriter.  The shape of his nose and facial features earned Jones the nickname "The Possum." <SEP> "Wine Colored Roses" is a song written by Dennis Knutson and A.L. "Doodle" Owens, recorded by American country music artist George Jones.  It was released in September 1986 as the first single and title track from Jones' album "Wine Colored Roses".  The song peaked at number 10 on the "Billboard" Hot Country Singles chart.  The song tells the story of a man who receives a letter from a caring ex-lover who asks him if he still drinks.  Unable to overcome his own shame to speak with her on the telephone, he sends her a dozen wine colored roses as a symbol that he still drinks.  The song became part of Jones' live show at the time, and when he would sing the line, "She asked if I had quit drinkin'," audiences would often cheer, mindful of how George had gotten sober himself in 1984.  In his essay for the liner notes to the 1994 Sony compilation "The Essential George Jones: The Spirit of Country", Rich Kienzle states, "If there were any doubters, 'Wine Colored Roses' proved Jones was a timeless superstar, even without stimulants." <SEP> "Somebody Wants Me Out of the Way" is a song written by Dennis Knutson and A.L. "Doodle" Owens and recorded by American country music artist George Jones.  It was released in April 1986 as the third single from his album "Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes".  The song peaked at number 9 on the "Billboard" Hot Country Singles chart.  The song is very much in the tradition of George's previous hits "Still Doin' Time" and "If Drinkin' Don't Kill Me (Her Memory Will)" in that it is a hard "drinking song," but it's also a "cheatin'" song, with the narrator suspicious that "Somebody keeps paying my bar tab but the bartender won't tell me who."  Jones delivers a soulful, bluesy vocal over a stone country arrangement with a prominent, shimmering acoustic guitar.  The singer, who had been a notorious drinker, was sober by this time thanks to his wife Nancy, who had gotten his career back on track after years of mismanagement and missed concert dates. <SEP> Arthur Leo "Doodle" Owens (November 28, 1930 – October 4, 1999) was an American country music songwriter and singer.  He had a long songwriting partnership with Dallas Frazier, with whom he wrote "All I Have to Offer You (Is Me)" (1969), "(I'm So) Afraid of Losing You Again" (1969), "I Can't Believe That You've Stopped Loving Me" (1970) and "Then Who Am I" (1974), all number-one country hits for Charlie Pride.  In the 1980s, Owens wrote many songs with fellow songwriter Dennis Knutson for George Jones and other artists.
