Herbert Leroy Remington (June 9, 1926 – October 27, 2018) was an American lap steel guitarist who played Western swing music with Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys from 1946 to 1949.[1] A member of the International Steel Guitar Hall of Fame (1979),[2] Remington is known for his Hawaiian style playing combined with swing-based jazz soloing.[3] One of his signature recordings was Bob Wills's "Boot Heel Drag", which appeared on the B-side of Wills's classic hit, "Faded Love".[3] He is also known for "Remington's Ride",[1] a song that became a standard for steel players.[4] Indiana-born Remington studied Hawaiian steel guitar as a youth, but serendipitously got into Western swing music in his teens and became one of the genres most renowned steel guitarists.
