Terry McBride (McBride & The Ride)
This quote was submitted on Tuesday 20 September 2016.
'Well, I'm a big Gene Watson fan.
He was one of my favourite artists growing up and still is today.
Who doesn't love 'Farewell Party', which was written by Lawton Williams (Monday 24 July 1922 - Thursday 26 July 2007)?
If I hear it on the radio, to this day, I can't change station until I hear him hit the big note at the end!
Growing up in Texas, some of the first songs I learned to sing were Gene Watson tunes'
Thank you, Terry McBride (McBride & The Ride), for your support of Gene Watson.
