Here is one of his best songs as far as I'm concerned. Not by him but by my band from Sunday afternoon..

Dang, Jim; that was beautiful. Boy howdy!!!
I love the sound of your band; that is what we were-- or at least I was-- going for with the Ride With Hank band I was most recently in.
I'm not familiar with Gene Watson, but, based upon that song, I'll spend some time checking him out tomorrow.
Thanks!

Gene is one of my favorites. I know "Farewell Party" was probably his biggest tune but "Pick the Wildwood Flower" was his best for me;

I have always loved Gene Watson's music. He has a great many great songs out there. I must confess that even though this is a Mosrite forum I didn't use my Mosrite on this song. It was a Gretsch 6122-59 C.G. Front pickup only, the one with the blades on it instead of the adj. screws.

Here is Gene Watson doing Farewell Party with some of the BEST country singers to come along sitting back and listening.
