I remember back about 40 years ago when I started learning Pedal steel (Switching from lap steel), Jeff Newman came out with a 12 intros lesson. It was very handy for a beginner like me to have those ideas to pull from.

Just sitting around I thought I'd come up with about 4 similar intros in 15 minutes that would help inspire new players to pull ideas from. I'm a big Hal Rugg fan, especially his early Wilburn Brothers cuts. So this is in that vain.

I'll tab them if enough players are interested.

Nice intros Ron!!!! I like Hal Rugg also. If I am thinking right, did Hal Rugg work on Lorette Lyn material? The group I work with has a young lady who does Loretta Lyn material and does a very good job of it. I do numerous intros and turn arounds and solos on those song and I try to do them like the original cut. I enjoy it when we do the L. L. songs. I know when I play those songs it really makes her shine with those signature licks behind her.

Nice work Ron. Definitely has the Hal Rugg flair. Loved those old Wilburn brothers shows.

Clem Schmitz sells an authorized CD & 18-page tab booklet for Hal's famous seven-plus minute Loretta Lynn medley. Good stuff.

I know Bob Hempker played for Loretta at one time on the
road, don't know if he recorded with her. He had a beautiful green Emmons D10, Billy Knowles restored it, it was a gem it is still on his web site at steel guitars east.

Here's a Hal intro from 1955. His first recorded, as far as I know.

I’d love to get the tabs for these. Even with the tabs I’d be hard pressed to get them right. Thanks.
