Title: Call Me Lucky
Review: wow…never heard of this guy-who is apparently a honky-tonk legend. Got this for my birthday and it’s a revelation. Watson is very good songwriter and guitar player and his band is smoking hot. This album was recorded at the legendary Sun Studios in Memphis (Elvis, etc.) and is a winner. Watson’s voice has a lot of Waylon with touches of Farron Young and Ferlin Husky….with w few nods to Johnny Cash. He also works in some very nice Hank Williams musicality. Not sure where he has been, but I’m really glad to have found him. ……Honky Tonk Heaven….
