Interesting. That looks about right except that I suspect that Hal Rugg is on more albums than you think.

Hi Dennis,

I've enjoyed your Beatle covers. You do a lot with the instruments you use. I enjoy your textures and a lot of the harmonies, etc. that you present. The Beatles are very steel friendl ...

Love this stuff! Good work Robert. Got a laugh out of your list of the typical acts that came through town.

Jeff Newman has a Mooney course where he nails the style.

As Bill Cunningham mentioned above, Rick Trevino used Dan to perfection on this cut. Listen to the ride at the end of "In My Dreams." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQ-wPB9gYdE

Bruce mentions a lot of good stuff and gives inside advice.

One of my favorite things is when he discusses tuning, in regards to the 7th string and the E-F KL. Also, the advice he got from Weldon ...

Well, speaking of Willie and steel, there's an old RCA album called "Country Favorites" where he's backed by the Texas Troubadours with Buddy Charleton. It's probably my favorite Willie alb ...

Speaking of "Rose Garden." It was written and first recorded by the great Joe South. He put a Phil Spector type of arrangement on it, and it's great!

Mr. Franklin,

Local writer, Joel Selvin, is coming out with a book about Jim. He's told me some amazing stories already. He was never crazy when he was playing, but the voices came when he wasn't.

This is a bit off the topic of why non-country producers add a steel guitar. However, this link shows steel guitarists from around the globe, who often insert the steel into their countries music. Fo ...

Hey Ron Hogan,

Is it really the same licks? The one you posted sounds like octave pull-offs, but without slowing it down, I'm pretty clueless on the one I posted. Seems more difficult.

Joe

Hi Pete,

Thanks for chiming in. Hope you're doing well. Yup that's the sound. He even has an arpeggiated solo!

Joe

On careful listening, it also sounds like a tenor banjo playing rhythm, or if not, a muted guitar doing a "Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter" part.

I'm unaware of that ever being a ...

For my money, the master was Lew Houston with Conway. Jimmie Crawford, Hal Rugg and Weldon could do it great, but it wasn't part of their style, like it was with Lew.
