If you ask any number of country singers who their favorite singer is, a large number of them will respond: “Gene Watson!” Gene has scored over 70 charted songs, including 23 Top Tens and 6 #1 hits over his forty-year career. It is safe to say that most knowledgeable country fans would point to Gene Watson as one of  country music’s best ballad singers in the same league as country icons George Jones, Merle Haggard, Vern Gosdin and others who are the standard bearers for honest, traditional country music. It’s no surprise that such artists as Vince Gill, Lee Ann Womack, Rhonda Vincent, Trace Adkins, Connie Smith, Joe Nichols, Alison Krauss, and many others are not only happy but eager to record with Gene. There is also the stunning truth that at age 66,Gene is singing better than ever, with his clear, pure tone intact and an unmatched soulful delivery. As a result, , his new CD, A TASTE OF THE TRUTH on Shanachie Records, may be his best recording yet, no small achievement for a man who has cut so many classics. And that is good news for fans of real country music rooted in the timeless values of one of America’s bedrock musical genres.
