Good to hear from you Jim & Larry. I will do some checking around unless I hear from Billy. Take care.

Hey guys, I live in Baytown. Maybe I can do some looking to see if there are any places available. Is that too far out for you guys? Or do you need something over on the Katy side? I guess we're all k ...

Anyone know what the situation is with Billy & Patty setting up our SE Texas pickin' meetings? I miss the Sundays of going to the church and everyone playing. That was a lot of fun. I appreciate ...

Unfortunately, I don't think John Hughey put out an instrumental of Last Date for us steel pickers. If he did, I would sure love to find one. I remember when it came out I guess in '71. I made a bet w ...

Hey Jody. It's been a while since I have seen you. I think I like the 2nd one best. Much better attack tone and better frequency response. Love that pickin' brother. You can't beat it. You're one of t ...

Yes, you are right about that. John and Miss Jean were one of the nicest couples I have ever met. John did not mind taking the time to talk and even explain how he did certain licks. He was a true to ...

I get a lot of requests to play this Hughey instrumental. I still remember this Conway song when it came out in '83. Many of the DJs were making such praises for the steel guitar part. I really enjoye ...

This is a fun steel number to do. Especially when using John Hughey's tracks. It helps to practice these songs so they sound decent at a live show. I was off in a few places, but oh well. Thanks for l ...

I had to add another one. Hughey did such a wonderful rendition on this great song. I enjoyed playing with the tracks. Brings back old memories.

Hey, no problem Trey. We all get busy these days. Thanks to Larry as well for responding. I love having this forum where we can all share ideas. Here's another of Hughey's tracks I played with, called ...

Here's another one I tried. Didn't do it much justice, but here it is. We're all having fun, right?

Hey Trey. I added one more in case you might want to hear another one of Hughey's tracks. This is a link to "I Just Destroyed the World". John did such a fabulous job on this Conway hit. Tha ...

Ok, I just created a link below to an mp3 in my Dropbox. Now you can hear the tracks.

Just now remember I removed the ones actually with the solo tracks. I left only the ones with rhythm guitar. I will find a couple and send them later. Sorry about that. But the ones that are there, I ...

Hey Trey, I bought some solo tracks from John when he was alive and well back in 2011. My brother and I used to go to the convention in St. Louis to see him as well as various clubs he played. Such a ...

Thanks guys for listening. I play this instrumental around the southeast Texas area and the crowd loves it. I had no idea how many people, who don't play music at all, know about John Hughey. They lov ...

Thanks guys. Yes, he was certainly my favorite. I remember so well in '71 when I first heard him on Conway's songs. He is to Conway as Don Helms is to Hank. Then he did it again with Vince. His sound ...

I placed this in my last post but intended it to be a separate post. Sorry about that. I have to say, John Hughey was so influential in my playing thru the years. I miss his sound. Animal Wayne Turner ...

Here's another great one Hughey did. I love this stuff!

Appreciate it Paul. I'm playing thru a Nashville 400 and a Boss digital delay.

My brother, Ron Kirby, asked me to post this on the forum. I sure had fun recording this with Animal Wayne Turner at my house. It's just the two of us, but had a blast. Thanks for listening.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the comments. I have a recorder that I use to make practice tracks. On this song, and some others, my buddy Animal Wayne Turner came over and did the rhythm, bass and lead.

I have had a lot of members ask that I do this song John Hughey style. I have to say that John impressed many people playing this behind Conway. I enjoy doing this song as an instrumental. Many of the ...

Thanks Bill! I see you are from N.C. That's where all my family is from, around Boone & Mountain City, TN. What a small world. Let me know if you post something. I always enjoy hearing other playe ...

I heard John back up Dawn Sears on this with the Time Jumpers quite sometime back. I heard him play it again live with steelpicker Bill Ferguson. I think it's an awesome steel guitar instrumental. I h ...
