Jimmy Pasquale (January 2007)

'Gene is a singer's singer.  One of the best voices country music has had the privilege to know.

I'm proud that he chose 'Bottle of tears' as one of his songs to record, and honoured to be able to call him a friend'.

Thank you, Jimmy Pasquale, for your support of Gene Watson.
