- Reggie Young is one of the most recorded, and most imitated session guitarists of all time. His timeless intro's, fills, and solos have elevated thousands of songs over his seven decades of work in the recording studio. In part 1 of our Truetone Lounge interview, we cover Reggie's early years in Memphis playing with the Bill Black Combo and sessions at Royal Studios, all the way up to his early work with Chips Moman at American Sound Studios. Reggie passed away January 17, 2019.

Best show on the internet!
Thank you, Todd! What more can you ask for on the first comment on this labor of love.
Todd
Yes pure class only stumbled on Zac's content in the last few days but it's compelling content. Well researched and fantastic understated interviewing style allows the artists to shine, like a good guitarist knowing when to leave gaps as important as the right notes.
Your name sounds made up Todd :)
Thank you so much for the Reggie Young interview. Zac Childs conducts incredibly informed interviews with a kind reverence that these wonderful artists deserve. So inspiring! Again, thank you!
Means the world coming from you, Jim. I would be honored to interview you. please email me zac(at)truetone.com
God bless you guys for honoring the guitar genius of Reggie Young. Guitar Player Magazine had a very short piece on Reggie recently, but it was pitifully short. This man has forgotten more guitar and recording knowledge than most folks will ever learn. One of my all time favorite guitar players. I would love to meet and speak with him someday, but this is the next best thing.
I wrote a similar short piece for VG magazine. With the Lounge, we can go as long as we want. Thank you.
I just heard of this legend a week ago I’ve been on the hunt for every interview he’s had what a absolute legend in music and guitar and a great humble story teller.
R.I.P. Reggie - thanks for the music!
Reggie’s memory in this interview is simply amazing. What a treasure trove!!!!!. Great to have it captured for future generations to come.
Pure gold.
We were so glad to get to capture this before his passing in Jan, 2019. He was a great man. Zac
Thank-You!!! RIP Reggie Young...What a Gem & Guitar God...Great Interview Sir!!
Thank you, Ronz. ZAc
Reggie...no one like him. He set the stage for guitar players in soul, blues, pop, jazz, country...what a touch. Always a champion of the new guys in town...true heart and soul.
Reggie is one of the all-time greats. I love in our Steve Wariner interview where he indicates that it was Chet Atkins idea to have Reggie play on Wariner's records. Zac
People, folks, musician friends.....this is absolute GOLD. Thank you Zac and your producers for doing this. Science has it's Einsteins, tech has its Bill Gates and Steve Jobs, finance has their Warren Buffets, sports has their Tiger Woods, Muhammad Alis, Joe Montanas, Wayne Gretzky's,...you get the idea...and we have the Reggie Youngs (among so many other GREATS). To be able to hear these stories from the mouths of those who lived these incredible experiences....well....it's almost too good to be true. THANK YOU!!!!!!
a true icon...glad to see him being recognized for his influential playing
The hero of many guitarists. Zac
43:26 the reason i learned the guitar. best RnB arrangement in the history of RnB. Rip womack. Rip reggie.
One of the greatest session men on the planet! He is such an inspiration to all guitar players including myself. God Bless you Reggie and your new CD is Awesome.....
Agreed! My favorite cuts are "Exit 209" and "Jennifer." Zac
Thank you Zac for being our historian.
So much going on in the old days for an average fan to keep up on.
Thanks. This is wonderful. It helps us see that we do indeed stand upon the shoulders of great musicians that came before us. That helps us all to grow by appreciation of these gifts.
I love the birds in the background. Great interview, Zac. I appreciate what you do!
Zac, so many great guests! Thank you so much! Also, your knowledge of the history related to each guest is truly impressive. Watching these interviews is as relaxing as sitting by a warm fire as your kindness and sincerity are palpable. I truly appreciate your work.
Wow, thank you!
I'm late to the party but great interview! Reggie was an absolute legend.
Beautiful, insightful interview, this is pure gold. Reggie's stories are fabulous. When the interviewer is this well informed and lets his subject speak, the results are exceptional. Thank you!
You are very welcome. It was an honor to interview him.
love this interview. close to home in some ways.
Such an icon of guitar players. RIP Mr. Young. Your work on earth is done.
As far as we know, Reggie is still alive.
Sorry, it was Chip Young. Didn't mean to get the two mixed up. Both were very fine session guitar players.
Thank you for clearing that up.
I love Zacs interview style. The fact that Zac has such great insight and experience with the Nashville music and recording world adds great depth to the interviews he does. His knowledge of places and names in the business is second to none. I love the equipment tech talks he does on "Ask Zac". He imparts a wealth of knowledge about guitars, amps, and pedals.
Thanks! Zac
The history of Rock n Roll is right here. Reggie Young.Get this man into the hall of fame.Mind blowing.
You are so right Sandy, Reggie is walking American Music History. Thank you for watching, and please subscribe for more great content.
Zac,
It's great to see an in depth interview, with such a talented player. He is truly a living legend. Also, i always appreciate, your depth of knowledge, I always learn a lot, from these interviews. Thank you. Looking forward to parts 2, and 3.
Thank you very much. Part 2 will be released later this week, and then part 3 next week.
Love you, Reggie! Thanks for being our friend. And using Little Walter Tube Amps!
Words of Wisdom. The Real Guitar Hero.
RIP Reggie Young. One of the true greats.
These videos are incredible. It’s great to see the history of these great musicians. Thanks!
These are amazing! Thank you for doing these interviews!
You are welcome! Please subscribe, and share them. That helps keep the show going.
Love these interviews Zac, you have a great vision for choosing old and new generations players. So much I've picked up on just by watching these. Keep them coming! Maybe Audley Freed one day... 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Thank you, Tim. We try to have a variety of players. Audley is on our list!
I second request for Audley! And I commented elsewhere already, but I'll say it again, Guthrie Trapp.
Thanks so much for this Zac.
My pleasure!
Many thanks.
You are welcome
Wow Zac. Fantastic interview! So grateful to see this. What a treasure Reggie is. This is the equivalent of Proverbs for the guitarist's bible:)
Thank you Justin!
Another great guitar player from Arkansas, along with the awesome Glen Campbell. Both session men.
Funny thing is they both idolize Django Reinhardt.
Reggie is my hero, I love lots of his solos and parts.
There are the ones we all know, like Drift Away, I Can Help, Suspicious Minds. He also played on Son of a Preacher Man and Sweet Caroline, as well as Think I'll Just Stay Here and Drink, as well as The Letter by the Box Tops, Angel of the Morning by Merrilee Rush, Down in the Boondocks by Billy Joe Royal, Hooked on a Feeling and Play Another Love Song by B J Thomas.
This is definitely the very best program on the internet and another outstanding interview
Great interview, Zac.
what a great interview .. thank you !
I would love these Legends to live Forever.... Well, maybe they are really 😀❤️🎸
I first became aware of Reggie Young on the early Jimmy Buffett albums where he was a “coral reefer“. Backstage after a Buffett concert in Fort Myers I tried to meet Jimmy by telling security I was Reggie Young. It didn’t work. Rest in peace Mr. Young.
Love you Reggie.
Reggie Young, my favorite electric guitarist. I never realized I've played so many songs he did the guitar work on. 'Makes me wish I had worked on playing them better! Thanks for doing the interview, Truetone!
You are welcome! His playing lifted every song he appeared on. Zac
Very entertaining. You are a top notch interviewer. I love the way his face lit up when he was recalling touring with the Beatles.
If you close your eyes, Reggie sounds so much like his fellow musician from Arkansas, Levon Helm.
This show is so insightful! I love that you are bringing light to some of the most important guitar players of all time!
Thank you so much. Please subscribe, and share them. That helps keep the show going. And watch out for part 2 and 3
Reggie Young had a great career. He was amongst the most influential from what I believe was the greatest time in contemporary music. I spend many hours trying to learn his riffs.
Reggie, it was a honor to have known you, a little! Thank you for playing at Patrick's wedding, so kind, so thoughtful!
Wow.....Reggie Young.....that's all I can say....Wow. What a career.
Time is a thief that robs all of us of everything but our souls.
Standel had Nauga? Or was it Kustom? Outstanding I View. Can't wait for part 2.
Not sure, but probably not Nauga. Standel indicates on their site "classic padded upholstery covering"
Drift Away - Dobie Gray's version- is my favourite song of all time. The Reggie Young opening rift signifies to the world that the song is coming on.....what a legend of a player with that magic Les Paul,
The Les Paul is on the intro and verse fills, the twangy chorus and outro is the black Tele he has in our interview. Zac
Maestro!!!
Yes he is! Zac
If for no other reason than the signature opening riff on Drift Away, have always been a great fan of this magic session player. Doesn't seem, and I may be wrong here, he didn't tour much. Then have read a number of times that he got so much demand for session work that even increasing his rates did not reduce the demand for his stellar talents.
Great interview! Always one of my favorite players
That is an interviewer who really put some effort into researching information for this interview. Awesome video.
Thank you. Zac
what an extraordinary career! My goodness... Excellent interview Zac..you kept this interesting and spot on track.
Thank you. Reggie is walking American Music history, and a hero of mine. Glad you enjoyed it. Zac
let's hear it for Bill Black Combo...!
Just stumbled across this gem. So cool. Preserving some real history right here! Child’s is a great interviewer!
Very kind. Zac
Wonderful interview with one of the true legends of guitar. And great job of leading the interview Zac, I'm sure Reggie's stories are endless! I second the comment of best interview show on the internet! Thank you Truetone for sharing.
You are very welcome, and Reggie's stories are endless. It was very hard not to film for 5 hours. As it is, there are 2 more parts coming.
hey zac, really awesome show reggie young is such a legend. would love to see guthrie trapp or kenny greenberg . really enjoying your stuff thanks. keep em coming !!!
Thank you. I love Kenny and Guthrie too. They are on our list.
Zac, just let me add my thanks to those of others for interviewing and shining the light on the incredible Reggie Young. Guys like him who work their magic mostly in the studios unfortunately often don't get the acclaim and exposure that they deserve. The pros know who he is, but not enough of the public does. Even though they probably have heard a lot of his work! Reggie is such a legend and for good reason. If he'd have hung up his guitar after his tenure at American Studios, and never gone to Nashville, he'd still be deserving of his status as a legend - but just to make sure folks got the message, Reggie conquered Nashville, too, and was a first-call session man there, too, for many years. Thanks for the memories, Reggie and rest in peace....
What a fabulous interview with Reggie Young, so full of information and stories from back in the day. Bittersweet
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you for this great interview. I am from Buenos aires, Argentina and I am a big very fan of Reggie! I am a pianist but Reggie's riffs give me goosebumps... As a fan of Jerry Lee Lewis I always wanted to know what was his impression of him as he played on some of Jerry's sessions. Another gretmat one was Joe South who I think he played with him too. Who would be Reggie's favourite artist after all the ones he knew?
This channel is the real deal, period, i'm telling all my buddies musicians and electric guitar students to check your channel .cheers from france
THANK YOU!!
I learned not too long ago that he played on all of the early to mid 70s Jimmy Buffett albums.
An incredible video! Thanks so much!
Zac, really enjoying these videos, and your knowledge of the early history of the music is a big part of it. Are there books that you particularly recommend about early Memphis music, Muscle Shoals, early country, etc.?
"Soulsville" www.amazon.com/Soulsville-U-S-Story-Records/dp/0825672848 and www.amazon.com/Sweet-Soul-Music-Southern-Freedom/dp/0316332739/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_14_t_1/133-2082451-8619754?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=A45VSG0RKT4EVT8WH9Y8 Both great books to get you started. Zac
Zac you do such a good showing respect and researching the artist thank you
Such an incredibly insightful interview. Thank you!
Reggie Young will never die; he'll just drift away. (No comments, please. I know he already passed.)
Understood!
Reggie is a legend, and the guy interviewing him is an excellent interviewer.
Reggie is! And the guy thanks you for watching. Zac
Truetone I seriously fell in the rabbithole and watched all 3 episodes. It's hard sometimes for interviewers to keep the interview on track while at the same time giving the artist space to tell their story. Really excellent job.
We really try hard to let the artist tell their story. Thank you for noticing. Zac
I lived in Osceola AR.
13:30 favorite song as a kid. Haunted house by Gean Simmons.
Absolutely phenomenal information. So grateful for these interviews.
I'm a close friend of Johnny Christopher. Great guy.
Yes he is. I had the chance to pick with him years ago at a friends house in Hendersonville. Zac
RIP Sir. Your diminished chords sequence, in the intro, for Billy Swan's "I can help" really was from another planet...So fresh and inventive.
Didn't this guitarist play on Soul Serenade?
No. Reggie played on the Memphis album that has Memphis Soul Stew on it.
@@TruetoneFX I'll check that out. King Curtis' Soul Serenade has a familiar guitar ring. My mistake.
time to update this and put down we lost Reggie a few days ago
We will. Check this out. th-cam.com/video/Lqxh-IAbxDo/w-d-xo.html
So very cool
Thank you for watching! Zac
A real music history lesson...... Reggie is living treasure.
He is!
The club in West Memphis was the "Plantation Inn".
Thank you
Very glad to hear Reggie mention Joe South as a guitar player. If I'm not mistaken, Joe played the solo on Jimmy Hughes' "Neighbor, Neighbor"
Love this interview. Reggie is so great and such a humble guy.
Probably the kindest, and tastiest player you will ever meet. Zac
Truetone I would love to master that fast pull off guitar lick that Reggie played on Merle Haggard’s I Think I’ll Just Stay Here And Drink towards the end of those song. It’s only on some versions. The only other person I’ve heard play it with that feel was Steve Wariner.. I guess you would know the lick I’m speaking of.
Reggie you sounded so good playing with the highwaymen. Folsom prison blues you sounded so good with the electric guitar great job oct2020
Great to hear Reggie's story and a few snippets of his wonderful playing....thanks Zac & Truetone.
Thank you. There is more to come in Part 2 and 3.
Looking forward to it...
Thank you for this interview!!! A true legend. Loved it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Who was the guy playing at the end ? Beautiful !
That is Reggie also, from a number of years ago. All the playing in this episode and the intro are Reggie Young.
Fantastic interview.
Great Interview

Damn good interview and channel
Thank you. We are filming another this week.
Great interview
🎸
Man, that is as good as it gets. You can tell Zac has great respect for Reggie and I enjoyed this so much.
Wow, thank you!
I greatly appreciate the way Zac let's his guests talk, instead of making the interview all about him, like SO MANY interviewers do...very refreshing !!!!
I hate that too, so I do my best to stay out of the way. Zac
The Box Tops' Cry Like A Baby and Petula Clark's Memphis are two of my all time favorite albums. Reggie Young is one of the all time guitar greats.
He is the best!
He was, but so was Glen Campbell and Barney Kessell. Let's just say that he was in that class.
Amazing interview!
