Gene Watson
 Whenever country music aficionados discuss the genre's best traditional male vocalists, Gene Watson's name is among those that suffice, along with the likes of George Jones, Vern Gosdin & Merle Haggard.
One of the most consistent hit-makers of the 1970s and 1980s, his breakthrough single, Love in the hot afternoon, made number 3 in the US country charts in 1975 and launched a successful run that included 21 top ten singles, among them Where love begins, Farewell party, Fourteen carat mind, This dream's on me, Paper Rosie, What she don't know won't hurt her and Sometimes I get lucky and forget.
One of country music's all-time finest singers and performers, in his voice is all the ache of existence. His speciality is songs of heartbreak, unrequited love and regret. There are people who sing songs ... and then there are the singers' singers. Gene Watson is in that elite class. ~ Alan Cackett, Maverick Magazine
