Memphis guitar legend Reggie Young set to release first-ever solo album

First time I heard Reggie Young was when he was playing guitar with the late, great Waylon Jennings.  But he has played with so many different artists over the years.  Waylon, Elvis Presley, Dusty Springfield and The Box Tops, to name a few.  Now, he will release his first ever solo record.
