Joe Fish (October 2004)
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 2004 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
Joe Fish's quote, which he submitted to this site on
Friday 29 October 2004.
I (Sean Brady)
would like to take this opportunity to say 'thank you' to
Joe Fish who
has made a special contribution to a unique part
of this online 'celebration of a Lone Star Hero'.

'Gene Watson has a unique instantly recognisable
voice that is up there with the legends of country
music. The first time I heard him on record (vinyl
in those days) I knew he was destined to become one
of my all-time favourites.
All these years later,
he is still a regular on my radio programmes, simply
because there is nobody like him (before or since)
and he is a firm favourite with my audience, many of
whom are going to Ireland in 2005 to see several of
his concerts - he is that special!
Meeting Gene
Watson and interviewing him on so many occasions has
been a personal privilege to me and I could list
many of my favourite songs by him, including the
'Gene Watson...Sings' album, which is superb'.
