Dallas Wayne (November 2005)
Gene Watson's peers within the country music industry believe in the sheer talent of this unassuming man from east
Texas, so much so that Gene is regarded by many of them as
'the singer's singer' - and rightly so!
All of Gene's Peers who were contacted in 2005 were most gracious with
their time & words. It is here, within this special
part of gene-watson.com, that you have an opportunity to
read
Dallas Wayne's quote, which he submitted to this site on Monday 21 November 2005.
I (Sean Brady)
would like to take this opportunity to say 'thank you' to
Dallas Wayne who
has made a special contribution to a unique part
of this online 'celebration of a Lone Star Hero'.

'It would be an honour to provide a quote
about Gene. I owe a huge debt to Gene
Watson, along with Merle Haggard,
George Jones, Johnny Paycheck & Mel
Street. Through his records, he taught me
how to sing country music.
Gene Watson
is one of the rare talents that make it
sound easy. I guess that's why I have
always been such a huge fan. His way
of making you believe what he's singin' is a
rare gift that is lacking in most of the
country music artists today.
From the very
beginning with 'Love in the hot afternoon'
to 'Farewell party' & 'Fourteen carat mind',
through to the new album 'Then & Now', he continues to still
teach us all what a great singer oughta be.
Gene, I'm your biggest fan'.
Thank you,
Dallas Wayne,
for your support of Gene Watson
