The Best of Gene Watson [Curb]

is a ten-track budget-priced collection that culls highlights from his recordings for in the mid-'80s, including the two hit singles and wasn't at his commercial or artistic peak during these years and as a result, shouldn't be seen as a definitive overview of his career, or even a worthwhile introduction to his music. Instead, it's a sampler of a brief period of his career that may appeal to fans who want a collection from each stage of 's career. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
