WAYNE JACKSON Memphis HORNS Rare Interview: Aretha, Otis, U2 and more!

Trumpet ace Wayne Jackson is an icon of American Soul. From Stax to Atlantic to Hi Records, with his friend Andrew Love, Charlie Chalmers and Bowlegs Miller, the Memphis Horns played on over 300 hits for Wilson Pickett’, Sam & Dave, Aretha Franklin, Otis Redding, Isaac Hayes, Al Green, Elvis Presley, Neil Diamond, James Taylor, Steve Winwood, U2, Peter Gabriel, Rod Stewart, the Doobie Brothers, Stephen Stills. B.B. King, Mark Knopfler, Buddy Guy and Alicia Keys.

In 2003 I interviewed Wayne over the telephone for my BBC Radio 2 series “Richard Niles’ History of Pop Arranging”. One of the greatest pleasures of my many years as an interviewer is the rapport that develops over a 30-minute interview. You will certainly see that here as Wayne and I share some jokes and stories. He was so much more than an icon – he was the kind of guy you could enjoy sitting next to in the studio for a lifetime. – Richard Niles
