Hal Rugg - Wilburn Bros Show, 1970

Post by scott murray »

there's dozens of these Wilburn Bros. shows available on the Classic Country Music Shows youtube channel

most feature Hal Rugg on steel though Don Helms came before him and Curly Chalker came after.
here's one show in particular that really showcases Hal, starting with a couple upbeat numbers by the Wilburns and Loretta. then at 13:45 the band is featured on an instrumental version of Time Changes Everything with Hal on C6.

after that Loretta sings her hymn The Third Man accompanied only by Hal on steel. quite nice and I can't imagine that happened very often.

enjoy!
