Day 227: Hanging Out with a Legend

Want to be impressed? Here are some "Selected Sessions" the legendary guitar player Reggie Young has recorded:

• Elvis Presley - "Suspicious Minds," "Kentucky Rain," "In the Ghetto," "Don't Cry Daddy," and "I've Got A Thing About You Baby"
• J.J. Cale - "Cajun Moon" and "Cocaine"
• Dusty Springfield - "Son of a Preacher Man"
• The Box Tops - "The Letter", "Cry Like a Baby"
• Dobie Gray - "Drift Away"
• The Highwaymen - "Highwayman" and "Desperados Waiting For A Train"
• Willie Nelson - "Always On My Mind"
• B.J. Thomas - "Hooked On A Feeling" "Hey, Won't You Play Another Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song"
• Neil Diamond - "Sweet Caroline"

Today I was lucky enough to spend time with Reggie and his beautiful wife Jenny. I also got to see him graciously interact with up and coming star Jackson Nance. It was so much fun to see the appreciation, admiration and respect young Jackson has for this legend. I'm a fan of them both.
