About 'From the Heart'...
Album Sleeve Notes
Thanks From the Heart
'Throughout my musical career, I have had the pleasure of working with the
greatest people in the business. At this point in my career, I feel better
about my new recording contract with RMG than all the others in the past.
I would like to thank, of course, my manager Allen Whitcomb for working so
closely with me. Many thanks to George Collier, president of RMG, and his
staff for working out a way to get me back in the mainstream of what I love
so much - COUNTRY MUSIC.
I would like to thank Ray Pennington for coming out of retirement to help me
with this project. I would also like to thank
Buddy Emmons for coming out of
studio retirement to work with me.
Other musicians I would like to thank are David Smith, Jerry Kroon, Aubrey
Haynie, Gregg Galbraith,
Dirk Johnson, Milton Sledge,
John Wesley Ryles, and
Bobby All, along with one of the greatest engineers in the business,
Kevin
McManus. Thanks so much to my fan club
president, Leslie Elliot, who does such a great job, and the Bobby Roberts
Company that keeps the Farewell Party Band and me busy on the road.
Most of all I want to thank my God for giving me the talent to attract all
the people mentioned above, and of course, all my fans and friends who have
stuck with me throughout the many years of good and bad, thick and thin, or
whatever came along.
Forever country,
Gene Watson'
