The Steel Guitar Forum

I have that album and it's one of my favorites. No credits on the back of course, but after a steel show middle Tennessee in the 90's I asked Lloyd Green who the steeler was. He said he didn't know but he took my mailing address. A few days later I got a handwritten letter from Lloyd telling me it w...

I don't recall hearing him on one of the clips before, but it sounds like Doug Jernigan.

It sure sounds like the Big E.

My thanks also Walter, for helping preserve the work of these wonderful musicians, many of whom have left us.

Today, I going to guess Jeff Newman.

Dicky Overbey's neat break in Johnny Bush's "i'll be there." He made that sound so easy.
And...of source anything Buddy or Papa John ever recorded.

The singer sounds more like an early Roy Drusky.

I think that's Ron Eliot on steel.

John Hughey and Ronnie Millsap...

Hal Rugg.

..yep.

I think it may be Speedy West and Jimmy Bryant.

Well, its from "totally Hot Nashville Steel Guitars"..assorted artists....I think its Robbie Turner.

Hal Rugg

That could be Jeff Newman.

I was a big fan of the stuff he did with people like Johnny Rodriguez and George Jones. I was more use to that Dive-bomber sound and didn't know he played much of the other. We should know better than to challenge you Roger.

Pete Drake was a good session musician, but I didn't know he could play like that. Sounds more like Hal Rugg.

My guess is Doug Jernagan.

Roger, I'm sorry to hear that. We're keeping you and your family in our prayers up here in Chattanooga.

Where's Roger this morning?
Sounds like Mooney to me...with the Moseby's.

Doesn't sound quite right for DON. He must have left the console at home or used somebody else's amp.

Roger, I think that's Peggy Sue...Loretta's sister. And Hal Rugg.

After Emmons added it to most of his live shows most Nashville pickers learned to play it. I'm going way out on a limb and guess Mike Sweeney.

Roger, there are some pretty good guitar licks starting at :47. No disrespect intended toward Sammy, but I don't think he was playing at that level. Also I know that Chet co-wrote a couple of other instrumentals with Don (Corn Crib was one)..and played on the session.

Hello Roger. No mistaking the sound of Don's Gibson console.

I think it sounds more like Hal.
