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 Watson’s Peers, who were contacted by The Gene Watson Fan Site, during 2005, were most gracious with their time & words.
It is here, within this special part of The Gene Watson Fan Site, that you have an opportunity to read a quote from Curtis Young, which he submitted to this site on Sunday 30 October 2005.
Sean Brady would like to take this opportunity to say ‘thank you’ to Curtis Young who has made a special contribution to a unique part of this online ‘celebration of a Lone Star Hero’.
Curtis Young
This quote was submitted on Sunday 30 October 2005.
‘Gene Watson is one of the best singers I have ever worked with.
His delivery of a song makes you feel like you are singing it yourself.
His pitch is great and his phrasing is right on.
I have spent many enjoyable hours in the studio listening to Gene’s rich voice through my headphones and harmonising to some of the best songs ever written and the finest artistry ever.
I wish Gene the very best always and would love to work with him anytime’
Thank you, Curtis Young, for your support of Gene Watson.
Curtis Young was born in the hills of East Tennessee on Saturday 9 January 1943.
Curtis Young began his professional career performing on ‘Tennessee Barn Dance’ in Knoxville, Tennessee with his high school friend, Delmar Loveday.
Between 1962 and 1969, Curtis Young worked at WATE TV, Channel 6 in Knoxville as a cameraman and projectionist. During this time, Curtis Young also performed on three television shows each week, plus weekend engagements as lead singer with The Kountry Kings Band.
In 1969, Curtis Young moved to Nashville, where he took up a position as bass player and singer with Wilma Lee Cooper (Monday 7 February 1921 – Tuesday 13 September 2011) & Stoney Cooper (Wednesday 16 October 1918 – Tuesday 22 March 1977), after being informed of a position by L. E. White (1930 – Tuesday 7 September 2004).
Curtis Young quickly advanced into recording sessions, playing bass and rhythm guitar, and singing harmony. Curtis Young also began doing radio and television commercials.
In 1973, Curtis Young did a demo of a song for a movie theme. The demo was chosen, and so was Curtis Young, who was flown to Hollywood to sing the theme song for Robby Benson’s first movie, which was called ‘Jory’.
After about three years with Wilma Lee Cooper (Monday 7 February 1921 – Tuesday 13 September 2011) and Stoney Cooper (Wednesday 16 October 1918 – Tuesday 22 March 1977), Curtis Young worked the road on weekends playing bass and singing for Chet Atkins (Friday 20 June 1924 – Saturday 30 June 2001).

In 1979, Curtis Young was called to work with one of The Grand Ole Opry’s long-time members, Vic Willis of the famed Willis Brothers.
In January 1995, with the passing of John ‘Vic’ Willis (Wednesday 31 May 1922 – Sunday 15 January 1995), The Vic Willis Trio evolved, putting Curtis Young in the spotlight as the lead singer.

In 1984, Curtis Young auditioned for a part in the Patsy Cline movie ‘Sweet Dreams’, which starred Jessica Lange (as Patsy Cline) and Ed Harris (as Charlie Dick). Curtis Young got the part and played the role of a lead guitar player in Patsy Cline’s road band and sang a solo with a full screen close-up.
‘Sweet Dreams’ was a 1985 biographical film which told the life story of country music singer Patsy Cline (Thursday 8 September 1932 – Tuesday 5 March 1963). The film’s screenplay was written by Robert Getchell, and the film was directed by Karel Reisz (Wednesday 21 July 1926 – Monday 25 November 2002).
‘Sweet Dreams’ starred Jessica Lange, Ed Harris, Ann Wedgeworth, David Clennon, James Staley, Gary Basaraba and John Goodman. The film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress (Jessica Lange). For all the musical sequences, Jessica Lange lip-synced to the original Patsy Cline recordings; the soundtrack of the same name was released on Monday 16 September 1985.
The ‘Sweet Dreams’ soundtrack album, which was released by Decca Records / MCA Records in 1985, contained all original songs by Patsy Cline (Thursday 8 September 1932 – Tuesday 5 March 1963) and was released following the movie. Although the soundtrack included original songs performed by Patsy Cline, it did not contain the original background vocal music, as all of it was overdubbed to fit each part of the movie.
Patsy Cline’s original producer, Owen Bradley (Thursday 21 October 1915 – Wednesday 7 January 1998), produced the soundtrack. The music was remixed and remastered by Doug Crider (Suzy Bogguss’ husband) at Music City Music Hall in Nashville. The overdub recording sessions took place in 1984 at Bradley’s Barn in Mount Juliet, Tennessee.
‘Sweet Dreams’ (Decca Records / MCA Records, 1985) was originally released as an LP record, but was later re-issued on CD later in the decade. The lead single from the soundtrack, ‘Sweet Dreams’, was released in 1985, but it failed to chart on any country music chart in the United States.
However, ‘Sweet Dreams’ (Decca Records / MCA Records, 1985) itself charted at No.6 on the Billboard Top Country Albums Chart in 1985.
In April 1987, ‘Sweet Dreams’ (Decca Records / MCA Records, 1985) was certified ‘Gold’ by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for shipments of over 500,000 copies in the United States.
