Andy Reiss Interview - Time Jumpers, Session Player, Vince Gill - Everyone Loves Guitar #271 Jul 09, 2018

Show notes

Andy grew up literally smack dab in the middle of the pop culture and music revolution of the late 1960's and saw acts like BB King, Albert King, & Buddy Guy & Junior Wells in concert. Yet, oddly enough, he became infatuated with country music, which his older brother turned him on to.

Some great stories about moving to Nashville and a sort of "Baptism by Fire" when Andy found himself playing for a famous actor in his first session… and with literally the best players in Nashville at the time. A collector of vintage guitars, Andy shares his favorite guitars along with some interesting stories about how he acquired them… divorce, cooking, his maternal grandmother / guitar teacher, James Brown, and more. Rare interview with a First Call Nashville session player and original member of the Time Jumpers all-star western swing band, which includes Vince Gill. Listen up:

Then, mysteriously… the band sent out an e-mail stating they were no longer going to be making records. On this interview, Dango reveals exactly why

He also shares the biggest obstacles in starting a record label, and the toughest challenges about being in the music business… why he loves a little-known guitar Gibson put out, called the SGGT… how he managed to do things his own way - and the value of this… family, balancing life and work, and much more. REALLY interesting conversation with a bright, ambitions musician and writer, and just a terrific guitar player...
