Posted by: beth at January 3, 2008 5:06 PMYou've compiled a great list. Particularly like that you included the one of the greatest underrated country singers of all times, the great Gene Watson. I can't recall enjoying a country album as much as this one in a very long time. I really like the title track too - In A Perfect World. Written by Harley Allen, it's just a stone cold classic country song.
