Eddy Raven (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 Eddy Raven's quote, which he submitted to this site on Tuesday 1 November 2005.

I (Sean Brady) would like to take this opportunity to say 'thank you' to Eddy Raven who has made a special contribution to a unique part of this online 'celebration of a Lone Star Hero'.

'Gene is such a great singer.  He has been my favourite country singer for years.

I'm proud to call him my friend and feel lucky to have had him record a few of my songs'.

Thank you, Eddy Raven, for your support of Gene Watson
