Gene Operle likes to tell people that he has been rode hard, but never put away wet. That is because he has survived cancer twice, open-heart surgery, and the loss of a son, and like the Energizer battery; is still goin! He does not take life for granted and has a notably positive outlook.
Gene wrote all of the tunes on his first CD, “For What It’s Worth”. Melding pop-infused country, folk, and soft-rock genres, the album as a whole is testament that in the aftermath of hardships and heartbreak, life can still be good, and even perhaps, as Gene says; “in accordance to the Master’s plan.” |
