5.0 out of 5 stars A really great country record, October 16, 2004

Country radio may have turned its back on this first-class honkytonk crooner, but hopefully his fans won't. After three decades in the business, Watson still proves himself a better singer than 95% of the competition, delivering a rock solid set of hard country heartbreak... The accompaniment is equally strong: whether you're an longtime fan or just like hearing really good country music, this is an album you oughtta check out!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gene Watson is truely "god's gift to country music", February 27, 2004

A life long Gene Watson fan I have been. At the age of 25 I find myself looking for new "old" music from the icon that is Warson. Gene Watson Sings make it's way into my CD player three days ago and has not been moved sense. This album brings the true unreal quality of Gene's voice to life.

What has to be considered completely different from anything Gene has recorded in recent years, Gene finds new life in a more modern type of country music.

For those whom may have doubted his ability over the years. Just listen to his cover of the Craig Morgon song "When A Man Can't Get A Women Off His Mind" and you will hear what is unquestionably the greatest voice in modern music.

To the Opry and Country Radio. Constant is the comment that country music has seen it's better days and if that is the case no doubt one of the reasons is because great voices like Gene Watson can't seam to find there way onto country radio.

If given a chance, this CD could be successfull on a national level and would no doubt produce more than a few top 10 hits.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gene Watson is back, sounding better than ever!, February 12, 2004

The title says it all.. Gene Watson sings.

This guy can sing a country song. There is something missing on country music radio and it's emotion and it's honesty. Good country music is missing. Gene Watson brings all the emotion and honesty to the table with his latest record, a great country record.

The guy is like a Ray Price or an Elvis Presley.. his voice just gets better and better as time goes by. "When A Man Can't Get A Woman Off His Mind" is an instant classic. The tune was co-written by Bill Anderson and originally recorded by Craig Morgan, but this is clearly a song that only Gene Watson can sing..

Five stars for this record because it's very powerful, it's diverse, and there really isn't a bad song on the whole record.
